I can't wait until I can fill my entire commute with round table discussions about educational practices, current research presentations, recordings of workshops from conferences that I was unable to attend, and current global news about education and technology. By the end of this year, it will be amazing the amount of content that will be available. Some of it will undoubtable be quality :) On a similar note, I've been trying to figure out what might be a good way to 'bookmark' pieces of podcasts. Here's what I would love to see (even though I know I'm dreaming): While listening to a recording, you click a button to mark the entry point and exit point to something you'd like to respond to. The player makes a note of those time codes, and the next time you sync the device, a piece of software similar to Audicity takes that file, copies out that section of audio and puts it into a specific playlist that you could then use for your own audio response, attach to a blog post or create a feed from that other people could subscribe to. So I could subscribe to just the audio that you found interesting from your daily commute. The way I figure it, if we keep thinking up new things to do with this stuff, someone out there (or some student) will figure out how to make it happen!
