Podcasts

If YouTube is on demand television, then podcasts are on demand radio where you get to choose the content. Listening to podcasts is not really something you would do in the office. I am tempted to download a series of podcasts and burn them to CD. Then I can listen to them in the car. A CD can hold 700MB of mp3s, so I would be able to choose between different programs on the same disk. It would be like changing radio stations but listening to content I am interested in.

The potential for library podcasting is in recording talks by speakers at library events.
