I've never quite got to grips with podcasts for some reason. Not totally sure why... but suspect it has something to do with their more intrusive nature (compared with reading text for example) - intrusive in the sense of having less control over the ability to skim listen (as you mention above). I appreciate that in other ways they are less intrusive, e.g. when driving a car or walking - unfortunately, as a bike-commuter, I don't do either of those things very often (at least, not in a context where I want to listen to work-related podcasts). So, on that basis, I'm still not sure I will get into podcasting now, but at least I've got some decent content to tempt me. Thanks for the pointers…
