I just saw the best practical use of podcasting...
Students everywhere will now be able to drink and party all night long and not have to worry about missing classes. Then can simply grab the podcast from that day's class.... Congrats... student attendance will be at an all time low.

Maybe I can do that with work? Skip out on boring meetings and pretend to listen to the podcast later.
