Blog entry describing podcasts

For my podcast description, I choose the Google Developer Podcast available on iTunes. I found this an interesting topic, since I follow new updates to Google products such as Google Maps, and Sketch Up - a 3D modeling program. All of the podcasts are produced by three software engineers, and they normally host and interview on a specific topic, publishing on a rather erratic schedule.

An interesting topic that was discussed in Episode Six is accessibility for disabled users, such as deaf, blind, or physically impaired persons. They discussed how some browers have built in tools for assisting with disabilities, though some websites make this more difficult using "pictograms" for sign-up procedures to help prevent spam-bots.

Some of the topics are rather dry, and might be more interesting to people working at Google, or other software engineers. For a lay-person, some of the episodes provide interesting insights into to workings of hosting an enormous website.

That's all for now.
