iTunes University

The Stanford-iTunes project I mentioned a while back has been expanded by iTunes to include several other universities, all under the umbrella "iTunes University."

Last night I spent a while poking around, while listening to a lecture from some American Muslim fellow who was discussing the problems with Islam as it is today. You can listen to them without downloading them, but I still downloaded several, mostly in order to add to the iPod in Amy's car. Some bits were only a few minutes long. For example, they had ten of Garrison Keillor's Writer's Almanac. I also grabbed ten or so of a similar program on composers. And several hour-or-so long lectures on a variety of subjects.

Now I don't have to listen to sports radio, Christian radio or Dr. Laura while I work.

Currently I'm listening to Korea: The Unfinished War by John Biewen and Stephen Smith, from American RadioWorks.
