Podcasts for language and/or technology geeks
Since i got this mobile audio device which brand name made it into a major neologism of these days, i am also testing podcasts. I do think there are quite a lot good podcasts out there, yet i have focused on only two that i more or less follow along:
The Word Nerds: This is an awesome show produced weekly covering words, their etymology, modern usage, and social implications. Very good! They are three eloquent teachers in the U.S. covering English, Latin, German, and other subjects.
IT Conversations: Most of the time this is actually not a ‘classical’ podcast, since it features many recordings of speeches at big tech conferences. But it has also interviews with people in the IT in general.
You can download the shows within the browser or you can subscribe to them with a podcatcher application, such as iTunes. Enjoy.
