Podcasts!
I recently discovered podcasts and vidcasts. I’d used them before (I subscribed to Apple’s New Music Tuesday when iTunes first added the podcast feature), but not with any regularity or much interest. About a week or so ago, however, I came across DL.TV.
DL.TV is a video podcast run by executive producer Patrick Norton (an ex-Screensaver) and is a total throwback to the days of TechTV. This throwback is complete when you couple DL.TV with This Week In Tech, a fantastic podcast produced by Patrick’s Screen Savers co-host Leo Laporte.
Other TechTV alum have vidcasts as well: Kevin Rose has Diggnation and The Broken, Martin Sargent has The Web Drifter and Infected, Megan Morrone and Leo team up for Jumping Monkeys, Chris Pirillo has cleverly-named Chris Pirillo Show.
I’ve been out of the geek fold for quite a while now (since my junior year in high school when TechTV went under) but I think I’m being pulled back in! I’d forgotten how interesting this stuff was.
