Seems like Skype is joining WebEx and LiveMeeting in the race for the mainstream conferencing application. Skype envisions Skypecasts as a way for people to discuss shared interests and hobbies. Six Apart Ltd., the parent of blogging and networking services TypePad, Movable Type and LiveJournal, plans to promote Skypecasts as a way of expanding online communities. The term "Skypecast" could cause some confusion — it has been used to describe a recording of an interview conducted via Skype, then distributed as a "podcast."
This could be huge for bloggers and podcasters. We already had one of our blog readers suggest we do a big Q&A skype session. I'm intrigued, but a bit skeptical of the logistics.
