Yahoo just announced their plans to get into podcasting with the release of a new service which lets users download audio content from online radio programs, including National Public Radio, the weekly presidential address and a number of independent shows.
Check out the public beta here.
Yahoo Podcasts categorizies podcasts by topic, keyword and tag and features ratings & reviews in addition to a host of other features.
Here’s a snip from a post today on the Yahoo Search Blog:
“Yahoo! Podcasts offers a comprehensive directory of podcast series and individual shows from across the Web, complete with detailed search results, most popular and highest rated lists, editorial picks, and a full collection of tools you can use. These community tools include ratings, reviews, and the ability to tag audio content, or view the tags that other people add. Why waste time on noise instead of signal —Yahoo! Podcasts can help you discover tasty stuff to feed your ears.”
Alex Williams notes an interesting phenomenon happening with the interface while p2pnet has coverage plus a bonus chimp photo.
