I visited national bookstore in Sta.rosa, laguna earlier and I stumbled to this Guinness Book Of Record 2007. I checked the cover and I saw podcasting is highlighted. I’m a little bit curious about it so I went back to the shop and check the net.

Here’s what I got from http://www.rickygervais.com/guinnessrecord.php

Ricky Gervais and his team were today awarded the Guinness World Record for the most downloaded podcast, gaining an average of 261,670 downloads per episode of ‘The Ricky Gervais Show’ during its first month.

The podcast has been available since December on the Guardian Unlimited website (www.guardian.co.uk) and hosted by the Positive Internet Company to cope with the very high anticipated download levels. Although the podcast was always sure to be hugely popular, actual downloads massively exceeded expectations but still went ahead without any technical hitches.
