Podcasting may not have lived up to the early hype, but with iPods and other MP3 players still selling like crazy, the potential audience for these audio shows is huge . I have made a cool list of online podcast creation tools for those who want to try this out.

Gcast

Record by phone or click to mix a playlist. If you have audio production software, you can produce your podcasts on your own computer, and upload them to Gcast for free hosting and syndication.

Hipcast

Whether you’ve got a mobile phone or a web browser, Hipcast.com makes it easy to upload, record over the web, or phone-in audio and video.

In order to view your blog stats, including page views, readers and votes, you have to become a sponsor. BUT - You are the one that get to choose the sponsor amount (minimum $30), and it is only one time payment. According to Pijoo, you will not be asked to make any further payments.

PayPerPost will be launching a new social network in January 2008 called SocialSpark.The company says about 85,000 bloggers and 11,000 advertisers will create profiles. Users visiting the site will then “browse the public profiles of advertisers and bloggers along with their associated sponsorship and blog related data.”

SocialSpark also promises to have an open API, so as to allow “information to flow into and out of the system”, and will offer support for Google’s OpenSocial.

Analytics tools installed on a blogger’s blog allow SocialSpark to provide traffic data on the blog’s public profile. Advertisers are provided with a complete picture of a blog’s influence including visits and page views, along with other demographic information such as aggregate gender, age, location, interest and other visitor information. That data allows advertisers to build their street teams based on the audience of the blogger. Once a campaign is launched, advertisers can monitor CPC and CPM as well as gauge brand awareness and campaign impact across the blogosphere.
