And Now For Something Completely Different

Thousands of podcasts are available at the iTunes Music Store, and websites such as iPodder.com and
Podcast.net track thousands more. That’s why the editors of the New Oxford American Dictionary have selected “podcast” as the Word of the Year for 2005.

Of all the words they could have chosen, ‘Podcast’ has been selected as the Word Of The Year 2005.

I’m like WTF?!!! Look at the rest of the words that made the list like squick (cause immediate and thorough revulsion: “was anyone else squicked by our waiter’s piercings?”) and lifehack (a more efficient or effective way of completing an everyday task: “I found a great lifehack for getting a cheap hotel room.”).

Then again I may be biased. All my attempts to release a podcast have met with failure so far. I’ve even tried recording a short skit with Naeboo entitled “Candy’s Voicemail” but it came out sounding like seditious propaganda.
