The Podcast Index is an open podcast directory that provides incentives for app developers.

“Podcasting 2.0” is a new podcast meant for the three stakeholders of podcasting – creators, listeners, and podcast app developers.

Adam Curry - the Podfather
  • The Podcast Index offers an alternative to Apple’s “centralized, private entity” and yellow-page podcast directory, Curry said.
  • It promises a core, categorized index that will always be free and available for any use.
