I took advice from last season's thingers and checked out Canada podcasts for some can-con. I've listened to podcasts before from CBC, usually for shows scheduled while I'm at work. Hey, allowing the content to fit my schedule, considering the needs of its listeners--kind of like what we're always trying to do. Podcasts can be used by institutions as easily as by slam poets trying to share their words, (again that democratizing power of 2.0) These sites are something I will continue to use, for my own listening, and to recommend to patrons needing sound files, or primary sources to complete their research. Before this wasn't clear on the difference between just a soundfile posted on the web and a podcast. Thank you Creative Craft videos. For both this thing and thing 21--does everyone realize we can search for these formats within many of our subscription databases? (see eLibrary, for example)Friday, March 19, 2010
