GeekBrief.TV

I chose to watch a videopodcast from iTunes called GeekBrief.TV, as visuals are far more entertaining than merely an audio file, I immediately was pleased with what GeekBrief.TV provided. GeekBrief.TV is, also related to the blog I studied, a technology videopodcast updating viewers with the latest and greatest in technology.

GeekBrief.TV offers numerous 3 minute episodes informing, and demonstrating, new technologies, gadgets, applications and programs available today. Being a videopodcast, they also demonstrate how the featured item works. One item I discovered is reading on an iPhone through a new application, full books! Imagine one day we have textbooks uploaded to our phones and iPods so we can study on the go! This connects to our recent study on using blogs and classrooms on the go through blogging and podcastng. This podcast I suppose is a briefer version of the blog I read, Gizmodo. Available to upload to an ipod or iphone, episodes offer instant updates to handy and amazing gadgets, updates and applications available to everyone.

I would reccomend this podcast, it is imformative and not only that, but it demonstrates visually to further enhance education. The attractive host, 'geek girl' Cali Lewis, informs her podcast audience of tech tools and toys that are available for everyone and brought to you directly through your mp3 player or iPhone.
