Podcasting

Hi all - I need to read about things first, can't change old habits I'm afraid! I found an article on the wish knowledge workers wiki about Weblogs, which has a reference to an article by Eugene Barsky on weblogs & podcasting, which is brief & quite useful. I don't have an Ipod or an MP3 player, [don't like wearing earphones] but the rest of the family do. I can see the appeal of downloading podcasts of favourite radio programs or whatever. I can't forsee that we would have sufficient material to produce a podcast but can imagine that there are podcasts that could be used as a verbal current awareness tool. The article refers to two specialised search engines for podcasts which I'll have a look at next.
