Science on my ipod
I was recently prompted to buy an iphone thanks to a bunch of folks in the Salesforce community who chipped in money for the purchase. The phone is great, and it’s the first ipod I’ve ever owned.
I’ve been running a lot in my triathlon training and I’ve been listening to podcasts on my hour plus runs. This American Life, of course, but my favorite is one called Radiolab out of WNYC in New York. It’s an hour long show that takes broad topics and looks into the current state of our scientific understanding of them, and does it in a highly produced format.
It’s a killer show and I’ve found myself looking forward to my runs just because I’ll get to listen to another Radiolab. I’ve been talking about the thought-provoking topics so much at work that I’m sure they’re all as sick of me talking about it as they were sick of me talking about Critical Mass 6 months ago. Oh well, at least I don’t talk about triathlon at work…
Try out Radiolab–you’ll dig it.

I LOVE RadioLab. I randomly discovered it listening to NPR one sunday night. Few months back I discovered the downloadable MP3s from the radiolab.org. Unfortunately some of my old fav’s (ones on Time that blew my mind) are not available for download, streaming only.
Great work on SF btw, toying with Apex and looking at your householding app now for a semi-similar use for our gov’t agency.
