We are not likely to realize the full extent of the disaster caused by Hurricane Katrina for a while yet.

With the recent release of iTunes 4.9, I am discovering the world of podcasting. Podcasting is essentially on-demand radio.

I enjoy listening to talk radio on my hour-long commute to work, but nearly all the programs available nowadays focus on politics. I would rather listen to programs on computing issues, science, and other areas of interest to me. I was stuck suffering through the garbage large media conglomerates were willing to jam down my ear canal, until now.
