I'm all for citizen media and so on, but for some reason I have yet to come across an amateur podcast that does it for me. The fact that I can't "skim read" a random podcast that I come across, the way I might do with a random blog to decide if I might like it, means that I'm not inclined to invest my time checking it out.<br><br>That said, there are a couple of professionally produced "spoken" podcasts that I think are great and listen to when I have time: This American Life, <a href="http://RadioLab.org" rel="nofollow">RadioLab.org</a> and Slate Magazine's podcasts are worth checking out.EmmetMon, 01 Oct 2007 12:25:04 -0000http://paulmwatson.com/journal/2007/10/01/podcasts-what-have-they-become/#comment-1284576I agree, I'd never go out of my way to listen to an information podcast. The only spoken word podcasts I got into were the Ricky Gervais ones. Like you said I'd rather read the information rather than listen to it.hellojedMon, 01 Oct 2007 08:30:24 -0000
