The New Media

Tired of reality TV? Sick or re-runs? Do you want to watch or listen to what you want, when you want? I do.

I could Tivo every show that I want to watch, which is few at this point. I could spend lots of money buying DVD's (I guess I do that already). Or I could download non-network (I am avoinding the word amateur) content from the Internet, and watch or listen to the content at my leasure via Podcasts.

I have chosen Podcasts. I am not talking about the pay-to-view podcasts, I am talking about the donate-if-you-want variety.

I don't expect to convert anyone, after all, how do you convert a fan of "Charmed" or "Trading Spouces". :) What I do want to do is lot down a lit of some of my favorites, most of them tech related (in an odd way), and some of them not intended for children.

Tiki Bar TV
Video only, comedy. Hilarious! See you at the Tiki Bar.

This Week in Tech (TWiT)
Top rated tech news Podcast, in both video and audio.

Diggnation
Weekly discussion of the top stories on digg.com.

Systm
Video series on building tech stuff. Like creating Podcasts.

Infected
This is a new tech audio show. It's ummm... different.

Looking for recommendations: I am especially interested in comedy video, like Tiki Bar TV. If you know of any, please leave a comment.
