Benefits: Voki provides amazing ease of use. Voki's avatar can be created from a point-and-click portfolio of examples and there are four ways to give your Voki podcast a voice. Voki allows for easy embedding to web sites, blogs and social networks like Ning. Voki has no costs.

Drawbacks: Unlike traditional podcasts, Voki can't be syndicated. Voki podcasts are limited to 60 seconds.
