For many, Podcasts, or audio or video feeds distributed through RSS, are nothing new. Since debuting in the early/mid-2000’s the platform has been used by professionals and amateurs alike to discuss a variety of subjects. Though these subjects are wide and vast, one popular area of concentration has always been technology.
Typically, these feeds are great for providing users with all types of information and insights regarding different categories and focuses within the tech sphere. As such, they’ve become great supplemental tools for many. However, with literally hundreds and thousands of tech-centric Podcasts, it can be hard for listeners to hone in on particular podcasts and podcasters (hosts and/or speakers). Sure, social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter have made it easier to find and/or follow individuals and their shows, but the podcast space can still be a challenge to navigate. So, to ease this process, we’ve collected 100 essential technology podcasters. The list consists of technology experts, journalists, analysts, enthusiasts, hosts, and more.
