Your Recommended Podcasts & Directories?
We’ve already gotten some fantastic responses for the Nokia Podcasting feature “wish list” (Bookmarking, or remembering position last listened to, seems to be the hands down winner for most requested feature). Please keep the ideas and recommendations coming.
As many of you know, Nokia Podcasting features default directories to help users quickly find recommended content to help discover great audio and video podcasts. (One of my favourite new default directories is “International”, which highlights engaging podcasts from around the world in various local languages.)
So what are your favourite podcasts are why do you like them?
In the Comments section below, tell us your top 3 favourite podcasts (or Podcast Directories) which you think should be added.
Please list:
1. Name of Podcast

4. Why you think its a great podcast

A great example of how artists and bands are sharing “the making of”, backstage material etc directly with the fans.
This is also the only place where one can hear the unreleased new tracks by Kemopetrol. And of course it all looks and sounds great in the Nokia podcasting app;-)
Since I could not find an opml directory anywhere listing podcasts available in Norway I’ve created my own at http://www.opmlmanager.com/opml/yngjoh.opml.

Podcasting directories allow visitors to find podcasts. A directory will be categorized either alphabetically or by topics. Not all directories are the same. Some directories focus solely on certain themes. For instance, MusicOnlyPodcasts.com, is a directory only for music, while Podseek.net, is a general directory that covers all themes.
