Podcasting:  I still don't get it

   I don't understand the charm of podcasting. I clicked the Pajamas
   Media teaser at right and thought, hm, that could be an interesting
   blog post. And I got [1]this link.

   But I don't want to hear talking heads, even if they're bloggers. I
   want text. I can read faster than you can talk, and I'm not interested
   in the inside-baseball interchanges of panel discussions.

   Get to the point, blogger, and go through the hard work of composing
   your thoughts in writing. Don't covet other peoples' media. To me,
   podcasting is just [2]poor man's broadcasting, which isn't to say it
   can't be worthwhile; and I recognize where it may be [3]going. But am
   I the only one not charmed?

   Or is it just that I'm so stationery and everyone else is moving
   around all the time with an iPod in his ear?
