Podcasts

I am subscribed to some podcasts for learning Italian; since podcasts are usually used for short presentations, I think they are a useful tool for learning a foreign language, in the sense that one can hear a native speak the language.
I looked at Podcast.net, Podcastelley and Yahoo podcasts. Libraries publish podcasts to announce weekly programs, storytime podcasts, public lectures, read chapters from books (Library Lady Audiobooks), headline news from the library world (LibeVibe).

For trends in librarianship I like: http://www.sirsidynixinstitute.com/archive.php

On Bloglines I subscribed to Audioilibri podcast, where one can listen to chapters from classic literature.
