"The simplest podcast API ever. Call their special phone number: 646-200-0000.
It records the call.
When you're done it creates an RSS 2.0 feed with an enclosure that's an
MP3 of the call.

"I like this new podcasting API from BlogTalkRadio."- Robert Scoble
Podcasts are gaining momentum.
Mobile podcasting just made the world flatter. The field has been leveled. Now you don't have to be a techie to get your message out to the masses.
You don't have to buy all kinds of studio equipment. Your mobile phone is your microphone and your car, library, rest stop become your studio.
No sign-up or sign-in.
"There are no additional changes attached to the service other than what
your phone service charges you to call the NY-based telephone number."-Lisa Padilla
But, your phone number is part of the RSS feed.
Which brings up a security issue and I'm sure BlogTalkRadio is all over it.
"Using Cinch is simple:
- Call (646) 200-0000
- Talk
- Subscribe or use as the RSS feed as an API - http://cinch.blogtalkradio.com/YOURPHONENUMBER
We provide the network, storage and feed."-BlogTalkRadio
"Thanks to everyone for the feedback on Cinch. The goal is to keep it
simple and let developers build tools on top of the service. Dave said
it best by calling it a simple podcasting API.
To address
privacy and spoofing concerns we will introduce some added
functionality in the next few days. However, the core functionality
will remain unchanged. Users will not be required to register and
create a user name or pin to use the service."- Kris Smith
If your phone number in the RSS feed concerns you, check a few of other podcasting services that require sign-up or sign-in:

USS New York
Claim: Image shows the warship USS New York, built using steel from the World Trade Center.
Status: True.
With a year to go before it even touches the water, the Navy's amphibious assault ship, USS New York, has already made history. It was built with 24 tons of scrap steel from the World Trade Center. It is the fifth in a new class of warship — designed for missions that include special operations against terrorists. It will carry a crew of 360 sailors and 700 combat-ready Marines to be delivered ashore by helicopters and assault craft. Steel from the World Trade Center was melted down in a foundry in Amite, La., to cast the ship's bow section.
When it was poured into the molds on Sept. 9, 2003, "those big rough steelworkers treated it with total reverence," recalled Navy Capt. Kevin Wensing, who was there.
