This is the new way to get in front of the guys who bank roll the Google's, Yahoos and Pets.com of the world. Basically it is a convergence of tags and podcasting which allow you to tag your elevator pitch with a tag so that Fred Wilson, a VC in the US, will download and listen to in his own time.
This is bloody brilliant if you ask me, I am a recent convert to Podcasts but I have to admit I absolutely love them. It has been great for keeping up my Japanese, I can download daily news and programs online and listen to them on my iPod and in the car. But for entrepreneurs this is a fascinating use of the convergence of tags and podcasting technology. The uses here are astounding in terms of getting the content you want as a consumer and for Marketers who want to get in front of the right people.
I would think it is extremely open to abuse by spam though so I suggest anyone who really wants to send an elevator pitch to Fred should hustle.
