A podcast is a non-musical audio or video broadcast, delivered usually through RSS.
I had a look at 2 podcast directories Podcast Alley and Yahoo search, both seemed very similar and Yahoo Search was not confined to podcasts. Both had a strong US bias, were relatively easy to use but like much of the Web 2.0 technologies there is a hell of a lot of "stuff".
I regularly liten to podcasts at home of interviews I have missed while at work eg. from Radio National The Book Show, or Late Night Live which I find very useful and convenient.
Maybe the Library Service could make available podcasts of the popular author talks held at various venues throughout the year.
