I’ve had a good idea for a way to simplify the front page of a blog: have the newest post displayed in it’s full glory, but have other posts only have an excerpt.

Actually, what I might do is make it so that is uses JavaScript, and only the post headers of other posts are shown, but clicking on the title displays the whole text…

University of California (Berkeley) now has a whole lot of lectures available as downloadable audio.  You can get Podcasts of them, or get them via the iTunes Music Store, Berkeley edition.

I’m not getting them as Podcasts, since the ones on iTunesU are already pre-tagged, and the courses I’m getting are not currently running, so I don’t need to automatically get new ones.

The only tagging fault I’ve found is that they are missing:

Remember playback position

Skip when shuffling

Which I think are important for this type of thing.

I’ve also noticed some Podcast/downloads via iTunes can be paused and resumed, unfortunately, these ones can’t.

Finally, a neat point is that it automatically creates a new Playlist, and a new Playlist Folder.
