Podcasts

I was checking out podcast.net and podcastalley.com. I preferred podcast.net. I did find an interesting podcast on Libraries across Cultures in Toyota, Japan on podcastalley. It was interesting to hear how users guides, indexes and maps of the library were listed in many different languages.

I did like the idea of being able to listen to something while you are doing something else, but it is harder to pay close attention if I am only hearing something. It could be useful to give general information and entertain (books read online). I wouldn't want to use it for specific instructions - would be harder to help remember without visuals.
