Podcasting

i found a lot of interesting content on podcastalley.com. i would like to just click to listen from podcastalley before subscribing. only because subscribing takes a couple more clicks and i'm kinda lazy, or busy or unmotivated until i know it is something i will like.

i found the format and search results from podcastalley friendlier than searching yahoo.

Greg Schwartz makes a good point on his Beginner's Guide to Podcasting podcast - there is the issue of keeping up with the podcasts you subscribe to as the content is consumed "real time". you will spend eight minutes listening to an eight minute podcast...i have a hard time listening to all of the things that i want to, or i listen to them without really tuning in because i'm trying to multi-task. i love video podcasts (are they even called video podcasts?) but it makes it more difficult to do something else while listening.

it is a good reminder to be more thoughtful about the information i am consuming.
