TalkShoe Launches Website for User-Generated Live and Recorded Voice Talk Shows and Podcasts

People can also Make Money Hosting Conversations from any Telephone, Cell Phone, or the Internet

PITTSBURGH, July 10 /PRNewswire/ -- TalkShoe (www.talkshoe.com) has launched a unique website for user-generated live and recorded voice. People can host and join live voice talk shows, discussion groups, and podcasts -- called Talkcasts(TM) -- using telephones, cell phones or Internet voice (voice-over-IP). Talkcasts can be recorded for later listening, downloading or podcasting. What's more, people can make money hosting Talkcasts.

Example uses of TalkShoe include talk shows, sports discussion groups, political debates, small business meetings, friends and family chats, and education and training. The possible uses are endless.

What Makes TalkShoe Different?

The main differences between TalkShoe and other services are: 1) both live and recorded voice, 2) use by all telephones and cell phones, and voice-over- IP (VoIP) connections, and 3) paying hosts for every talker and listener. In addition, up to 1,000 people can talk and/or listen to a live Talkcast, and unlimited people can download the recorded podcasts.

TalkShoe expects good-quality content to be created on the website. TalkShoe is seeking both professional and amateur hosts to create useful and topical voice content. Current TalkShoe hosts run the gamut from everyday people to two Pittsburgh Steelers players, Brett Keisel and Max Starks.

Hosts Make Money

"One of TalkShoe's goals is to enable an entrepreneurial community where people can create voice content, and get paid for their efforts," commented Dave Nelsen, CEO of TalkShoe.

Hosts can earn money from text advertising (Google AdSense), audio ad insertion, and video ads. In addition, hosts can choose to charge a fee for their Talkcasts.

How TalkShoe Works

Hosts choose the topic and schedule their Talkcasts online. Hosts have control with features such as 1) muting, 2) censoring, 3) see-who's-talking, and 4) request-to-talk queuing. The Talkcast can be recorded on the TalkShoe website for listening and podcasting. The Talkcast can also be listed on podcast directories including iTunes.

Private Talkcasts are also available for friends and family talks, and business communications.

The TalkShoe website is currently free.
