Podcasts for Teachers
Today I want to recommend some more podcasts that are dedicated to learning and education. The reason for this is, that I am currently having an online course "Podcasting for Teachers" at knowschools.ca for a group of K-12 Teachers, so this might be useful for them too.

Find strange Names for your web 2.0 project
This is a link that I found in one of the German blogs that I read. It's a name generator to invent cryptic names for your web 2.0 project. Now you know, where names like flickr or zoho come from ;-)
What's really cool with this site: it can also check if the generated name is still available as domain name.

How to use Video in Education
Just found this blog entry about "Five ways you could use Video in Education".
Some really useful recommendations how you can use video in educational context.
Using Life-Events on the Internet
As you might know, this podcast is dedicated to Internet stuff, especially web 2.0 websites and services. I did not offer my HTML video tutorials since November 2006 but I will produce some more of these in the near future. In the meanwhile I got distracted by all these life tools that you can use to talk to people in real time.

Blind people can learn to see with their tongue
This is a report from CBS that I found on youTube. It explains a new technology where blind people can learn to see with their tongue. Amazing!

Tips For Beginning Bloggers
I just found this article from the "Thoughts and Experiments" blog that I find useful for beginning bloggers.
It fits good in my blog entry about my last "Talkcast on Blogging and Podcasting" that you can find here.

Next Talkcast about photo sharing
The next Talkshoe talkcast will be about photo sharing:
Want to share your photos with friends, family or the whole world? There are some nice free sites on the internet like flickr.com or photobucket that you can use.
If you have questions or comments, meet me life on the talkcast at Talkshoe.com. Date: 01/18/07 Time: 2:40 pm EST (7:30 pm GMT).
One Laptop per child, now also for adults
I really like the idea from Nicolas Negroponte to produce low-price laptops for the developing world.
Now it seems to be possible to get these laptops as a normal customer. The only condition: you have to buy 2 and get 1 for yourself, the other one will go to the developing world.
I like this idea.

Listen to the Webtutor Podcast
I already have started a podcast on Rent-a-Tutor.com which is called "Webtutor Podcast". I'm still not sure where to host the MP3-files finally. I already upload them to odeo.com and blip.tv but maybe I will switch to another host soon. Odeo and blip.tv are free services and I wanted to try them out, just in case that I need to recommend something for my readers/listeners if they want to try out podcasting without spending money.
So you can download my last podcast-episode from 2006 here from blip.tv or here from odeo.
I just tell about my new iPod Shuffle and how I use it for learning.
