Thought2Form Productions, LLC, has launched Podtopia.net -- a new online publishing
platform that makes it easy for individuals and small/medium-sized businesses to
quickly and easily join in the podcasting revolution.

A simple interface enables users to upload their mp3 files and information about
their episodes, then publish their podcasts (with generic and iTunes-ready feed
files) with a few clicks. Information from prior shows can easily be retrieved and
re-used in subsequent podcasts. Each podcaster receives a full-featured podcast
webpage with their own url on Podtopia.net, so they don\'t need a new website to get
found by search engines. Additionally, Podtopia.net allows users to include html
from banner exchanges or ad programs, like Google\'s AdSense, so that they can earn
money with their podcasts. Each Podtopia member\'s web page can also be customized to
match the design of their existing website, for a seamless site integration.

\"Podcasting doesn\'t have to difficult,\" says Podtopia.net\'s Founder and Chief
Architect, Kay Stoner. \"And aspiring podcasters shouldn\'t have to struggle in the
uncertain waters of early-stage technologies like podcasting. In principle (and if
you know the in\'s and out\'s of web developing), podcasting is a collection of
straightforward technologies. But not everyone has been building high-end websites
since 1995. With Podtopia.net, average people don\'t have to have special skills, to
get involved in podcasting. We make it simple to publish podcasts, while keeping
Podtopia.net feature-rich and intuitive.\"

Personalization and customization play a big role in Podtopia.net\'s offerings, as
well. \"We provide you with your own podcast web page, so you don\'t get lost in the
crowd,\" says Stoner. \"If you\'ve made the effort to produce a valuable podcast, your
show deserves the best presentation it can get. So, we let you design your own
podcast page, either with a look you may have already developed for your existing
website, or other designs you choose.\"

Podtopia.net's debut features podcasts from Bob Prentice, nationally recognized
professional development consultant, and the \"Podtopia\" podcast, which discusses
techniques for successful podcasting and using Podtopia.net. For more information on
Podtopia.net and podcasting, visit www.podtopia.net.

Founded in 2005, Thought2Form Productions, LLC, is a print and online publishing
company specializing in independent media production. The company oversees the
weekly production of the nationally syndicated public radio show, Women In Music
with Laney Goodman, and now it extends its reach to online broadcasting.
