So I was just curious...how many people use podcasts or iTunes U broadcasts to learn about subjects of interest to them?
(for anyone not familiar, iTunes U is probably one of the awesomest things existing on the internet- all you need is iTunes, a free download from Apple, and you can access thousands of audio and video recordings of classes from colleges and universities from around the world- for free. I'm talking little tiny community colleges all the way up to classes from places like Harvard, Yale, Caimbridge, McGill...and they range from short little bits and blurbs on up to full-term classes on any subject you can imagine.
So last week, I had downloaded a few mythology podcasts as well as some Ancient Greek art/history classes, though I haven't had a chance to listen to much yet.
I was just wondering if anyone else has listened to any and if they would or would not recommend the ones that they had listened to? As soon as I get a chance to listen to the ones I had, I'll post about them.
