I’ve done a cou­ple posts on web­sites I reg­u­larly visit and i hope that will con­tinue as I get back into writ­ing things beyond the links I find each day as my posts.

Since I have a 1 hour com­mute each way to work and back I’ve got­ten more active in lis­ten­ing to pod­casts. Active sound through pod­casts actu­ally also helps me fall asleep at night — this allows me to go to sleep with­out wast­ing energy by putting in a movie to fall asleep to.

The prob­lem that some of you pod­casts lis­ten­ers at there have doubtlessly run across is the fact that some pod­casts do not actively update reg­u­larly enough to fill in your nor­mal lis­ten­ing sched­ule. Since I’m not l33t enough — ok I’m too cheap — to have a video ipod I nor­mally just lis­ten to MP3 ver­sions. So this lim­its some of what I’ll review over time.

For exam­ple the video ver­sion of dig­gna­tion gains lit­tle over the mp3 ver­sion — but the expe­ri­ence is still more enjoy­able. So last night I was doing my nor­mal what to add to the ipod from the itunes store today pod­cast search (btw Def­con and Black­hat ses­sions are now on itunes) and this one I ran across — GigaOm by revision3 (also the cre­ators of diggnation).

GigaOm is a tech pod­cast — that I can say is kinda of like dig­gna­tion with­out Kevin and Alex. You get a mild chem­istry between the hosts — but it’s not as flat out Gen-X lov­able with­out Kevin and Alex. That being said by the time I get home tonight I’ll be through all the episodes.

GigaOm is orig­i­nally a tech blog (here) and this pod­cast goes through the top 5 sto­ries of the week and also inter­views some of the movers and shak­ers of the “Web World”. I can say if you enjoy twit or some of revision3’s other out­ings I would give this one a shake.

I’ve included the lat­est episode for your view­ing pleasure.
