Tomorrow (Tuesday, November 22, 2005), an event will mark the launch of a plethora of local podcasts. The event is sponsored by Microwarehouse and it will be held at the Red Box, Greelbelt 3 Makati. Here's a list of podcasts that will be launched in that event:


- Politics (Philippine Center for Investigative Journalism)

- Poetry (Cookie Tuason, KC Concepcion, Chinggay Alonzo, Heights Ateneo Poetry Group)
- Starstruck (Freddie Santos)

I'll be attending this event and see how competetive our local podcasters are as compared to the likes of those in the Top 10 Podcasts of the iTunes Music Store.

Wow! Sounds exciting.

BTW, Bernie, are these podcasts mostly talk or do they also have music only like strictly OPM or something?

Thanks!

@senor enrique: I'm sure someone will think of it. However, as far as I know, all the listed podcasts are maily "talk".
