Podcast Review
I mentioned in an earlier post that I'd do a quick podcast review. This ties into "spending less time online".
Really, what does it come down to? Being efficient.
And nothing's more efficient than a podcast that will catch you up with the latest industry news in a few minutes to an hour.
The podcasts mentioned below are my current favorites. They range from general news to tech news to randomness to craftiness
(listed counterclockwise):
Sticks & Strings
a knitting podcast by an Australian bloke
You Look Nice Today
Journal of Emotional Hygiene with Merlin Mann as one of the 3 main guests
Knitters Uncensored
Hilarious trio based in Germany. Definitely uncensored.
This American Life
There's a theme to each episode, and a variety of stories on that theme. It's mostly true stories of everyday people, though not always.
Craft.Rock.Live.
Vickie Howell's podcast which lasted for one season. She has an interview with Greenday's lead singer's wife as well as other crafty divas.
NYTimes Podcast
News on the go: Front page news, NYT Tech Talk, Political Points: On The Presidential Campaign, Science Times, Only in New York
This Week in Tech: TWiT
Join Leo Laporte, Patrick Norton, John C. Dvorak, and other tech luminaries in a roundtable discussion of the latest trends in high tech
That is all folks! Check out these podcasts when you have a chance. Let me know if you've converted to any of them :)

Ugh, don't do this to me, don't give me more opportunities to fritter my life away on line. . . I love This American Life. Everyone around you will definitely think you're off your meds if you listen to it in public on an mp3 player. I will check out Knitting uncensored. So how is that scarf coming along?
The scarf is done - just need to photograph and post about it. Oh I've been slacking on my crafting lately!
