Pod-casts and Blogs - Discuss!

I love the idea of pod-casts. There are all kinds of programs that I never got around to because I always feel like I'm wasting my life sitting in front of the TV and Audio shows are never on when it's a good time to listen. The discovery channel and NPR are two groups that have started doing pod-casts. It's nice to be able to listen to something informative/educational or just entertaining when you can't be doing anything else (in the car for instance). It seems very closely related to the idea behind books on tape.

As far as blogging goes, I think I would find it much more enticing if I were more of a social butterfly or activist. I plan to stick with it for a while (both posting and reading) because I'm sure it will be more enjoyable once I'm more comfortable in the scene. Right now it's a little overwhelming jumping in and trying to find and choose a blog to subscribe to.
