Podcasts provide entertainment and more
Growing up we were lucky to have a selection of radio broadcasts on the AM dial, and when television arrived the three channels or so seemed like a luxury. Today there are an incredible amount of entertainment and education choices from cable tv to satellite radio, and now the internet has brought us podcasts.
Podcasts are audio files you can download to your computer and even load onto your portable mp3 players like the Apple Ipod. If you can imagine a topic there is probably a podcast available. For instance, you can download a few retirement planning podcasts from Ameriprise Retirement Services to Wine Tasting radio from GrapeRadio.com and everything in between.
If you like to follow the news you can access the New York Times podcasts, with several daily and weekly podcasts, or enjoy the archives and daily podcasts from NPR, with links to podcasts from their daily programs, as well as special reports and other quality programming.
You can find giant libraries of links to podcasts at podcast directories such as the the Podcasting News Podcast Directory , Podcast.net’s Podcast Directory , or Indiepodder.com’s Podcast Directory, a community site dedicated to producing programming and applications for the podcasting community.
