What's On Your iPod?

I have been interested in podcasting for several years now, maybe because it takes me back to my radio days at San Diego State University. Listening to a podcast is basically like listening to the radio. Sometimes, the content is a monologue, sometimes an interview, or a discussion among two or more individuals on a topic of interest. Some are wildly funny, others informative or serious. From an initial handful four years ago, there are now tens of thousands of podcasts out there with millions of subscribers. You can search for podcasts of interest at the iTunes store (most subscriptions are free) or through websites such as podcastalley.com. One of my favorites is Grammar Girl's Quick and Dirty Tips for Better Writing (http://grammar.quickanddirtytips.com/). Check it out and let me know what you think.

I'd also like to know what else you are listening to. What's on your iPod?

I LOVE LOVE LOVE podcasts. With an hour commute each way every day, it gives me a chance to learn a little something for two hours a day. I love Grammar Girl too and have her on my Zune. There are hundreds of different podcasts available on the Zune website as well as on iTunes. Some of my favorites are the Clay Nelson Life Balance Hour (http://www.claynelsonlifebalance.com/podcast/index.html), Get It Done Guy Quick and Dirty Tips to Work Less and Do More (http://getitdone.quickanddirtytips.com/) and FlyLady (http://www.blogtalkradio.com/stations/flylady/flylady). There are lots of places to find podcasts and I find new "favorites" all the time. I do have a few songs on my Zune player as well :)
