Useful Podcasts

I have to admit, I'm a text fan. I can search text. I can quickly scan it.

So podcasts, instructional videos, and the like have had doubious value to me.

But here are some podcasts I'm actually excited to listen to: Howard Van Rooijen's interviews of Ken Schwaber (on Scrum).

What I like about these podcasts is the FAQ format Howard has chosen to use. What I'd like more is if each question and answer was separately accessible. And if there was a pointer to a wiki where volunteers could help create transcriptions and get this stuff back into text.

By combining a few formats and tools, we might get the best of all worlds: A format (phone interview) that makes it easy for an expert/author to contribute content. And then some connected tools to help the content escape the limitations of a big, unwieldy, unsearchable blob of audio.
