My weekly podcast routine

Some thoughts scribbled down on Sunday 06 July 2008 at 11:17 PM

I listen to a mix of science and technology podcasts with a few entertaining shows mixed in for some variety. Here's my list:

• .Net Rocks!

  .NET Rocks! is a weekly talk show for anyone interested in programming on the Microsoft .NET platform. The shows range from introductory information to hardcore geekiness.

• dnrTV

  dnrTv is a fusion of a training video and an interview show. Training videos are typically sterile and one-way. Let's face it, you can only take so much. But you need to see the code! In this format, you get the spontaneity of an interview talk show, and the detail of a webcast or training video.
