Thing 20

I chose to subscribe to a podcast available from iTunes called Pea in the Podcast. I am listening to a podcast about picking a baby's name as I write this entry. It was very easy to subscribe to this podcast from iTunes, but I found it very difficult to search for podcasts.

I found it difficult to search for podcasts using all the the tools suggested. I did not like how you could not search by topic using the Education Podcast Network. All I could so was select a category and see what was available. Many times some of the podcasts did not play. This tool just wasn't so user friendly to me.

I thought Postcast Alley was a little better. I didn't find picking a genre to help me find podcasts that were appropriate beneficial. I preferred searching by topic which was a nice feature. There are many, many, many podcasts to have to screen through though either way.

iTunes took a while to get the hang of, but it was really easy to subscribe once I found the podcast I was interested in. I found many of the podcasts here were often from shows and were created to entice you to buy something.

It would be helpful to know if there are other ways to search for podcasts.
