Favorite Podcasts?

Nope, they're not just for iPod owners and I believe most are free.

I absolutely love Photoshop TV and was stoked to see that they're releasing new episodes just for NAPP members. I occasionally check out the podcast at Tips From The Top Floor. I'd love to know more photography podcasts though.

Michael, would you be thinking about the Photoshop Killer Tips podcast? They're usually only a minute or two long.

I just looked at my iTunes and all it says is "2 Minute Photoshop Tricks". The podcast that I have loaded right now is actually a little over 7 minutes long. I just did a search and found the PS Killer Tips. That looks like something different. I'll have to give it a listen till the guy with the Harry Potter books on his iTunes gets here, then I'll listen to those. That makes it worth while coming to work.

Rick, you can download and use iTunes from Apple for free. It's a really easy to use music program and doesn't cause problems like Real Player. You can buy songs from their music store for .99 or copy your own CD's into it.

Podcasts are a lot of different things. They can be audio blogs, instructional tips, news stories or anything else that usually fits into a few minutes of audio. And they're usually free. With iTunes, you can subscribe to podcasts so that it will automatically download the latest podcast from that series. Some come out once a week and you don't need to remember to download the latest - it's done automatically, and automatically uploaded to your iPod when it's plugged into your computer.

I almost wish my drive to work was longer...

LOL Thanks guys. Steve I had no idea Itunes was free to anyone who wanted it. My girlfriend has it and it is a good program. I refuse to get an Ipod but I saved about 100 songs onto an SD card and use my PDA as an MP3 player. I also have my eye on the new Pioneer Inno, a portable XM radio with built-in MP3 player, which also broadcasts an FM signal so you don't need a car/home adapter. It is currently going for $300+ new on Ebay.

I might go and check out Itunes. But I like the "visualizer" screens on Real Player Are there any podcasts longer than a few minutes? Like 30-60? Also, for you guys with Video Ipods are there video podcasts?

Thanks

The last two episodes of Photoshop TV have been 30-40 minutes and they do have video that plays on the screen of video iPods. You can download iTunes for free and subscribe to podcasts like this, and watch or listen to them on your PC.

Cool

I downloaded Itunes last night. I also downloaded my first podcast, "The DiCaprio Code" which was pretty lame. I'll spend some more time today looking for other stuff.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. Gotta love this forum
