Well, as much as I use technology, I have never viewed an official podcast. When I take a class like this, I am always of the opinion that if I can walk away learning a new thing or two, I will be happy. Having said that, in the short time I have been in this course, I've have been exposed to many different technologies that will change the way I teach and that I learn.
Back to podcasts..... I guess I always thought, with no real reason why, that podcasts were more like music videos, tv show clips, and movie previews. I had no idea the depth of content that was in there. Way back when I first got digital TV, there was a channel I watched all of the time called Tech TV. The entire channel disappeared 4-5 years ago and I have always missed it. However, one of their main 'stars', Leo Laporte, has his own podcast. Leo was well known for shows such as "The Screen Savers" and "Call For Help". On both of these shows, he would help people figure out how to use current technology, but he would also review new products and give the viewer his opinion on them. So, needless to say, I'm pretty happy to see that I can catch him again. He also hosts another podcast called TWIT (This Week in Technology) that he hosts with a couple other folks.
Thanks, Ann!
