Thing 11 - Too many pods

I'm not sure how I feel about podcasts. They could be useful for work, as means of conveying news and updates to people who are already familiar with this territory. And I can see their mileage for teaching, and for catching a missed radio show. But I have been (and still am) overwhelmed by the choice. I went to the BBC Podcasts page, as instructed, and felt bamboozled. Then I went to Podcast.com and felt the same. But I'm not one to give up, oh no. I browsed for a couple podcasts via iTunes Store and slipped them into the 'Podcasts' bit of my iTunes library, in the hope that I might remember to have a go with them on the way home one day. They will have to be truly breathtaking to prise me away from what is already on the radio, though.
