More to the point, if you have any opinion and/or story on the impact of podcasting on our industry, be it as an observation or a personal experience, I'd love for you to share it, either here, by email to <a href="mailto:daniel@thedigitalfront.com">daniel@thedigitalfront.com</a> or at the panel itself. If shared here or by email, I may ask permission to refer to it during the discussion.Personally (and this should come as no surprise), I believe podcasts have had a pretty significant effect on the industry, especially of late. They have allowed gamers to become more familiar with designers via interviews, promoted new and old games alike via discussion and actual play recordings, become in many ways the news sources, especially with the demise of the traditional paper magazines that used to carry that role, and in general given the gaming industry a more direct access to the customer base. So, let me know your thoughts. I greatly appreciate it.</blockquote>
