Week 9, thing 21: Podcasts

Another very enjoyable tutorial. Again, I've heard of podcasts and seen a few, but never really explored them. I'm a big Gordon Lightfoot fan (can't get into Bob Dylan) so I decided to type his name in to see what popped up. There wasn't a whole lot, but I did find a pretty cool 10 minute radio interview that he did fairly recently. He doesn't really like doing interviews, so this was kinda nice. I must say I was amazed at the way you can pick and choose the podcasts. When you find one that looks interesting, you simply click on it and play, very cool. Next I searched for a book review regarding one of my favorites, "The great divorce" by C.S.Lewis. Again, not a whole lot came up, although I did find a review from a young lady that was ok. Thanks to 23 things, this is another resource I will continue to use and explore in the future. I imagine podcasts are something that will continue to grow and improve just like everything else 2.0 related. http://boss.streamos.com/download/TownHall/audio/mp3/2400f352-de4c-4312-a9a4-97247fc26c2f.mp3?siteid=PodCast

I'm not really a fan of Gordon Lightfoot but I LOVE The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. Not many people can write a song telling a true story, touch your emotions and get a hit record out of it. What a guy!
