What is a podcast? What can it be? Several fun examples!

Created by Kaylea Hascall (University of Chicago) on May 14, 2007
Here's a quick collection of my favorite illustrations of the different forms a podcast can take:

- A way to learn something new: http://www.radiolingua.com -- learn Spanish, Italian, German in weekly classes

- A multi-format delivery of goodies: http://www.makezine.com/podcast -- audio, video, pdf files, all about MAKE'ing stuff. MAKE magazine takes a DIY/hacker approach to every aspect of life and technology, from robots/rockets/games to furniture/food/clothes.

- Another way to blog: http://www.zefrank.com/theshow -- week-daily for a year, Frank blogs whatever is on his mind. New episodes are no longer being producted, but it's hilarious (or maybe that's my twisted sense of humor....).

- An "independent" radio show: http://www.cuisinefromspain.com/ -- a monthly "cooking show", put on by a couple in Spain, one Spanish, one British.

- A source for audio books: http://www.podiobooks.com -- lots of great stories available this way, released on a schedule you specify.
