I want to learn more about movie maker.
How to discover some useful search tools for locating podcasts and videos.
How I did it: I don't remember when I first came across podcasts, but now I'm hooked. I listen to them while driving to and from work, my favourites and the BBC and ABC range of podcasts that cover news, politics, science, books, Big Ideas and the Breakfast Show.
To get started: I suggest use Google Reader to manage your subscriptions as it is available wherever you go. Setup a free account if you haven't already got one, then search for podcasts and subscribe to them into google reader. OR
Go to one of the following sites and subscribe to the podcast feeds of your choice by clicking on the orange feed button:
http://www.digitalpodcast.com/
http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/Podcasting/
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/podcasts/directory/genre/
Of course, any news site will have podcast feeds, and many science sites etc. I'm learning italian off podcasts from learnitalian.com.
Then download at your leisure, copy across to your mp3 player and listen away.
People doing this are also doing these things:

The iTunes store is an easy way to get free podcasts and videos and subscribe to your favourites. A number of excellent universities have free lectures online in both mediums.
I’m not a user of podcasts but I can see the potential they offer. Like most of the web there are heaps of sites to help locate them also.
I watched this http://tametheweb.com/2006/09/steal_this_idea_quicker_than_a.html one two times, it is really cute and entertaining. I love seeing what other library systems are doing to make this all fun.
