The Washington Post reports that the [porn industry is scrambling](http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/11/14/AR2005111401456_pf.html) to produce media for iPods. That’s no surprise, as porn has always been technologically innovative (credited for the home video revolution and most of the internet money making in the 90s). What’s relevant to bloggers, designers, and developers is that content of all types, including porn, is being viewed across browsers, platforms, and devices. Some call it convergence and I call it divergence: cell phones, Blackberries, game devices, TV, iPods, all viewing web content.
Let’s get Small
[Standards-based design evangelists](http://www.webstandards.org/) have warned for years that your website would be viewed on a variety of devices and that day has finally come. [PodSites](http://www.podsites.com/) offers a how-to on making a slice of the web to go and A List Apart has published, [Pocket-Sized Design: Taking Your Website to the Small Screen](http://www.alistapart.com/articles/pocket).
Businesses that are thinking about a podcast should also start thinking about product demos, user manuals, and more content from their site that can be viewed on a small device. Next time I’m considering a new station wagon, I’d like to get a video podcast of Volvo’s new models and watch it at my leisure on my iPod.
That’s content on demand.
