Podcasts are my new daily favorite
With the new iPod and the newest iTunes I’ve been discovering podcasts have come a long way. I’m not so interested in mom and pop broadcasts but when I found the Business Week cover story podcast it all became clear. I’ve been reading Business Week more frequently and the podcast is a great companion. In this one specifically the authors and editors discuss the articles ineach week’s magazine. I’ve found these to be awesome and give a great deal of background that couldn’t be fit into the written article. Thinking about it from the business side, it actually gets me to buy the magazine every week so I can be clued in when I listen.
So, each day I listen to music when I’m getting ready but on my way to and from work I now listen to podcasts from Business Week, NPR, This Week in Tech, and so on. I’m still not watching news and only read the business and A&E sections of the weekend paper so this is at least getting me closer to knowing what is going on in the world a little closer to real-time.
