Podcasting and MSN Video
I've been using RSS aggregation for the past several months somewhat effectively, but although I had always heard about PodCasting I have never actually looked into it. Well yesterday I read an article referencing it and thought I would procrastinate on doing some prep by reading up on it. Turns out this is just an RSS feed with attachments, or enclosures as they like to call them, the attachments being mostly media file like MP3's and WMA files. I can always read faster than these guys can podcast the news items at me, but it's a great way of catching up while driving or allowing you to do some mindless grunt work while still catching up on the news. Although I download it to my PC right now, I'm going to use Ipodder to get them to my PDA and listen to them on the way to work or waiting around throughout the day. Cool stuff! Although this is all audio stuff, you know the video is just around the corner, especially with Microsoft getting into the game with MSN Video to the desktop or PDA.
