I got Kris and myself an iPod Touch over the weekend, after seeing a friends. Wow… They are so cool and I have been totally hooked, including watching the BBC via iPlayer. I’ve also noticed a world of pod casts that I’ve been totally blind to before. Downloaded a load of them, including:

The Drone Bay - Average EVE podcast, quite newbie focused. Maybe it’ll get better..
Game Design - Horrible quality sound. Hurt my head. Couldn’t listen to it due to that, so can’t comment on quality of content.
Game Theory - Podcast entitled “Death, Rebirth” Talk about the possible death of PC game print magazines, due to the emergence of online consoles. also about bringing some old game franchises back to life. Pretty interesting.
Indie Game Development - MIT Grad student talks about a face book game, including design methodologies including paper prototyping.
Guardian Film Weekly - Little bit pretentious, Probably check out a couple more before dismissing it.
NY Times Front Page - Brief to the point, news updates from NY Times
Radio 5live Wake Up to Money - Business/Finance update
Warhamma - What a shite name. Quite well done, catch up on War-hammer Online happenings.
Men of the Rings - LotRO podcast with three jolly American guys. Made the PvMP stuff sound remotely interesting.
Polymorphic Podcast - .NET podcast, about Model-View-Controller in some ASP.NET MVC framework. Seemed pretty decent if the subject gets more interesting/relevant
Pragmatic Podcasts - Very cool introduction to Core Animation in OSX/iPhone. I need OSX and the iPhone SDK!

It’s made me really want to get OSX installed, and check out the iPhone SDK… Can’t wait for the App Store.
