Skypecasts will let me do new kinds of podcasts

I'm real excited by the new Skypecasts. Get 100 of your favorite friends into a Skype call, then record it to an eBay server. Who wants to do a Scoblecast?

    I think they’ve launched far to early.

    E.g. it is not possible to delete a SkypeCast you created for testing.

    Also it tries to make a SkypeOut call to a strange number without any explanation why it does so. This was the point the preview did not interest me anymore…

    This could offer some interesting features to online auctions. You could have a professional, live auctioneer running some high-visibility autions. That’s a pretty cool feature.

    I’m way into mashups right now. Lets do a scoblecast brainstorming and deciding on a mashup.

    @4 Jim

    Thank you for the link. They should have been clearer about that on their SkypeCast pages…

    I give it a year before we get skype-based AudioSpam

    I’d love to join in on the fun, but I’m on a Mac and you need version 2.5 of Skype, and the newest version for Mac is 1.6 if I’m not mistaken. Another reason to repair my Windows PC :-)

    Yeh definately join you… its an ideal opportunity to get 100 random people talking about the state of software applications… Bring it on!

    [...] It seems Skype now offers Skypecast, a podcast you can create with your Skype calls.  Scoble says, "Get 100 of your favorite friends into a Skype call, then record it to an eBay server."   [...]
