Podcasts

I have never actually downloaded a podcast before. Mainly because I tend to view them as things that would be useful while traveling on a bus or plane, but I have a habit of zoning out or daydreaming when I'm in moving vehicles, buses especially, and I've been known to not notice half an album of music go by before I come out of whatever I'm thinking or dreaming about.

So I've always been of a mind that they're a bit pointless in my case, because if I get distracted by an idea while I listen to a podcast I'd have to replay the recording from the beginning.

But I like the fact that you can learn new languages, or the history of China, or social issues through a podcast. And they're so accessible that it's fantastic.

I quite like the phrasing of the next point 'Consider investigating....' and to be honest, I'm not really interested in how to create a podcast. Well, to be fair, I probably would be if I didn't have about 7 things on my to do list to get done by closing today, but as I do, I'm slightly pushed for time. But I might come back to it on my long weekend.

I added a Doctor Who podcast on my reader, it's quite cool. I'll have to make sure I turn off the updates for it when the new season comes out as it comes out in the UK before it comes out in Australia.
