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.

Download the MP3-File here.

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.

Using Life-Events on the Internet

Download the MP3-File here.

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!

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.
