I just installed the Blubrry PowerPress plug in, which allows me to podcast, which I’m excited about. Not that I’m excited about everyone in the world hearing my voice, but it is another form of media that I can experiment around with and enjoy. (Speaking is part of the language arts, after all).

I may install this on my science blog, as well. There are a lot of scientific phenomena that are best described through moving images, like this one of the Tacoma Narrows bridge disaster:
