I went onto Podcast.com and typed in the word "creativity". I found a podcast that claimed to have "simple and powerful tips to release your creativity" so I watched it. It was filled with advice about "lifting yourself up from the quagmire of human negativity." Oh well, they all can't be superstars. But it is amazing how many podcasts there are.
There was an article in US News and World Report that discussed how university professors were using web2.o to teach. The really creative ones included podcasts. MIT physics professor, Walter Lewin, became a celebrity. His physics podcasts get thousands of hits a week.
There's a whole site on colleges that have classes (not for credit, just for fun) on a learning consortium http://ocwconsortium.org/
And of course, many of these classes combine the best of web 2.0 and include podcasts.
Now anyone can watch a podcast on physics from MIT or check out a class on nutrition at John Hopkins or view some materials on 19th Century Europe from UMass.
