I keep having this feeling that podcasting is about a lot more than just mp3 files, the internet and portable music devices. The glue for this whole thing is RSS. But what's the "thing" I'm pondering here? What's the full impact of all these components coming together? No full answer yet, but Doc Searls' keynote at the Les Blogs conference in Paris definitely provided some more very good food for thought on this subject.
