For those of you concerned about my whereabouts, I assure you that I am still alive and well and keeping the blogging thing alive. This weekend, I was lucky enough to be the co-host for Joe Jaffe's Across the Sound podcast. The show talks about everything from the World Baseball Classic (big loser) to Porsche Cayennes on the Sopranos. So go give it a listen and let us know what you think!

Just caught the news that the Baltimore Sun is now offering podcasts from a few columnists. Slowly but surely...

The Los Angeles Times' Cynthia Cho writes about how the world of politics has entered the world of podcasting - perhaps in a big way. Between columnists and commentarists doing their thing, and politicians themselves putting out their opinions and speeches, they've taken advantage of reaching out to a population that doesn't necessarily have the time or inkling to listen otherwise - and a population that is probably most likely to spread the word to their fellow technological evangelists.
