Razor and Blade - The First Podcasters?
If you’re not familiar with the movie “Hackers” I suggest you do a little research before reading the article. May I even suggest buying the movie Hackers
Anyway, this post is about Razor and Blade the “elite” hackers that Kate and Dade visit when they need help dealing with the feds. They are self-proclaimed media icons and run a pirate television show named “Hack the Planet.”
I understand that podcasting isn’t illegal so they do not share that in common but they do share more important commonalities. Both of them are below the radar of mainstream media and Both of them have huge followings.
And just like Razor and Blade when their broadcast was received all around the world, podcasting is breaking through. With the sale of one-hundred million iPods podcasts are more popular than ever. In the fray are not only iPods but many other multi-media devices such computers, PDAs, and other “MP3″ players. All of these add up to an ever growing market for podcasting.
Thanks Razor and Blade for being the fathers of podcasting! Sorry Adam, I know you’re the true father of podcasting but I think they beat you buy a few years …
