Thing 17: Podcasts

http://podcast.com/show/95955/Discovery-News-%28Video%29/
Well, well, well! This particular thing basically is giving voice and/or video to blogs. I searched through podcast.com and checked out podcastalley. I watched and listened to Discovery News and watched a chimpanzee invent a brush tool, I listened to CNN news but it just made me realize that the chimps are more intelligent than most humans in the news. I listened to authors on Tour and listened to various comedy routines. I started to listen to Stuff You Should Know only to find out aphrodisiacs do not exist. All I know is chocolate does wonders for me. The Education Podcast Network was interesting and it is a good way to catch up on some courses until I realized that anyone and their dog can teach. With some, their dogs have a great deal more to say. Podcast and podcast alley were the easiest and fairly speedy to download but then it was at a definite quite time on the net. I did subscribe to SirsiDynix merely because of their involvement with libraries. The only problem is they have not updated their "pod" in some time. I guess that can be a problem.
If I were to do a podcast, I would have to make the commitment to continually update and come up with something new to say. That can be very difficult because sometimes I sit and think and sometimes I just sit.
