I don't have as much experience with podcasting considering I just put my first one up this week, but I thought I would share how I did it for anyone who was interested in producing their own. I chose Gcast because you can easily embed your podcast into your blog or webpage. I hope that helps aspiring podcasters.

Her short, pithy, and witty posts are not only fun to read, but also very informative. She also has the definitive list of Cambodian BlogHers here. He did a presentation on podcasting - his first in English! He was a participant in the small group role play on social media and we had great fun. I love her authentic style.
