I’ve been looking at some of the software being produced to assist podcasting. One thing that seems relatively simple to implement, but I haven’t found in a podcasting tool yet, is any form of teleprompter. While I’m sure that some podcasters just ramble, others like to plan and pace their speech. Reading from a bit of paper or an on-screen document begins to get pretty clumsy.

Which is why I was impressed to read of the impending release of Vlog It! from Serious Magic . It’s a (slightly) cut-down version of their highly-regarded Visual Communicator 2 product, and they aim to sell it at just $99.

If/when this arrives, it’ll sure shake up the nascent podcast software market. Even if you discard the video side of it, it still looks like a cool podcast tool.
