Thing 15 - I am already a podcast fan. I like to listen to MPR programs when I have the time. I have added MPR to my Google Reader list. Again, this is a challenge for me in figuring out how to bring all these things together and remember to look at them. Is there such a thing as a virtual post-it note? Regarding I-Tunes... yeah, I hate to think how much money my kids have spent downloading to their I-Pods (or as I like to call them "Mom, I can't hear you when you ask me to load the dishwasher because I have music blaring in my ears - devices." I actually have an early generation i-pod loaded with music I enjoy. (Yes, I had my kids download it for me). Every time they get a new-fangled i-pod, I get the old one. Same thing goes for my phone. It's practically an antique.

Hard to say if Walt Whitman would listen to podcast. I think he would have taken advantage of technology where ever possible (with his parent's permission). Photo: Walt Whitman, c. 1867, Albumen silver print by Mathew B. Brady
