People are being reminded of the world at their fingertips, as September 30th marks International Podcast Day.
The international celebration of the power of podcasts is seen a an opportunity to connect with fellow podcasters, podcast listeners, podcast enthusiasts and leaders in the podcasting industry.
Just as podcasts and podcasting has evolved over the years, International Podcast Day has done the same.
In 2014, National Podcast Day was celebrated in the United States with just six hours of broadcasting.
After quickly realising the power of podcasts internationally, it was re-branded into International Podcast Day.
