Some consolidation

I've merged my wordpress blog with this one in effort to consolidate and remove my dependence on the Geeklythings hosting.  This saves money, which I understand is a virtuous endeavor.

Podcasts

I've run across a few podcasts that I found interesting.

Japanesepod101.com - This is the best one-stop source of Japanese study material that I've found. Since it went live in 2007, it's gradually become more commercialized, but on the plus side, the production quality has gone up as well. JP101 is a great tool for studying Japanese.

Along with the daily audio, there are complimentary PDF's available for download as well. You have a lot to choose from depending on your skill level from early beginner up to some advanced intermediate lessons. There are several different feeds you can subscribe to or you can create a custom feed. It's really a nice setup.
