Knowledge by Ear?

jgercken asks: "I recently survived a 16-hour drive solo thanks to having downloaded 10+ hours of old Off the Hook shows, a 2600 sponsored radio program. It is so refreshing to hear news from a technically cognizant perspective. Is anyone aware of any similar programs or maybe sources of recorded lectures?"

  1. audible? by Polo · · Score: 4, Informative

    Although Audible is a pay service, it has an enormous amount of diverse material.

    I think my favorite so far has been "Surely you're joking, Mr. Feynman".

    I signed up for two books per month and I'm WAAAY behind on listening to it all in the car (some books are as long as 24 hours).

  2. I like the Linux Symposium and TechNet Cast Files by elucidus · · Score: 4, Informative
    The Ottawa Linux Symposium Back Years Are Available Online. There are some very detailed and technical presentations. I liked the treatment of Rsync from 2000 "The Rsync Algorithm", highly recommended.
