Another thing I've come late to (they're now up to episode 49) is the JISC podcasts. These started in July 2007 and are available from:
http://www.jisc.ac.uk/news/podcasts.aspx
They are also available via iTunes (I had problems subscribing to the series but could easily add individual episodes to my iPod).
I listened to two on the train:
- podcast 48: Mainstreaming accessibility – getting it right the first time
- podcast 47: Creating 21st century learning spaces
Both were short, professionally done and prompted a few thoughts about how we do things in my institution.
Mind you, I wouldn't mind getting involved in a £100m new building (as described in the 21st century learning spaces podcast).
The accessibility podcast was very down to earth: covering web, VLE and accessibility tools (e.g. Jaws screen reader).
I shall certainly download some more - there's a lot to choose from!

Hi Steve, thanks for this review. I'm the person who is responsible for (and who makes) the JISC Podcast.
I was sad to hear you had issues with subscribing to the Podcast via iTunes. I'd love to understand what issues you had, so please feel free to get in touch anytime to help me sort this out for other users.
Thanks again for the review,
