Cody's Podcasting Session Questions

Well, to be honest, this was the first podcast I have listened to. So therefore, I do not have any personal recommendations. I have heard that NPR has some worthwhile podcasts.
I think it would be useful to have podcasts on the use of some databases. Many are covered in bibliographic sessions, but podcasting would provide a useful refresher for many students. It could also include more detailed information highlighting advanced searches or using the thesaurus.
One reading stated that library tours were not a good use for podcasting. This is a good example especially if you would be listening from a desk top location. I believe almost anything could be podcast, but it would be a matter of what users desire.
