Thing 21 Podcasts

These audio or video feeds are great because no iPod or MP3 player is needed to access them. The Podcast.net directory conducted a really good search on "tea", yielding 11 sites. My favorite was 122 episodes of Tea Lover's Room Teacast. These were also sites located in Japan and Formosa. Some sites were bands and chat groups. The cutest title was"Tboy's Tea Time" with disco and ambient music. This directory was easy to use with good results.
Yahoo Podcasts search for "book review" had many sites, but one good one was the News Hour with Jim Lerner. This discussed the cutbacks in book reviews by newspapers because of the poor economy. This site had good links.
MERLIN podcasting learning link lists how libraries are using podcasts as stories for kids, library news, public programs and staff training.
