A Podcast for the Rest of Us
I love podcasts and as I have mentioned before, I probably listen to like 20 podcasts every week. The problem with the podcasts I listen to is that the majority of them, while technology based are a little below my level. I am not saying that there aren’t bits of lil information that I can gleam from them, but podcasts like Tekzilla, Diggnation or honestly most of the Twit and Rev3 podcasts are discussions either dumbed down for the newbie computer user (How to install your video card! Running Firefox from a USB Key!) or reporting news that I read on my Google Reader a week earlier (a common problem with periodic reporting). The other group of podcasts I listen to are extremely technical programming , web design or Photoshop podcasts that are really tutorials more then conversations.
I didn’t realize how much I was missing a intelligent discussion podcast about current technology topics until I found Citizen Garden
Welcome to the Citizen Garden podcast, a semi-regular chat with Chris Messina of Citizen Agency and Larry Halff of Ma.gnolia. In this inaugural edition, you’ll hear us chatter about the social web of the past year, the Citizen Web of the coming year, and even our clairvoyant visions for year after that.
If you care about things like social networks, privacy, data portability and new technologies and what they will do for you, I HIGHLY suggest you check it out! Now only if their feed would play well with my google reader.

Hey thanks Lynn! Those are kind words!
Are there any topics you’d be interested in hearing us rap about?
