Over the last three or so months I have been really getting into listening to podcasts.  I had sampled a few here and there but been turned off by the more aptly titled vanietycast nature of the programming, so I quit listening.
But then Tim Wilson started producing Ed Tech Coast to Coast.  Being a fan of Savvy Technologist, I decided to take a listen.  The light bulb went off immediately; here there be content.
I was hooked.
With some more digging, I uncovered more content-rich podcasts.  Alt.npr's YouthCast is a regular listen.  Anyone teaching Romeo and Juliet should listen to the story of NetNet and Rome.
But now, like blogging, I want a better understanding of the tool.  How do podcasts work?  What tools do I need (I'm not ready for this just yet)?  And what do I want to say?
The answer to the opening question seems to be not quite yet, but soon.
