Leo Laporte and Steve Gibson Podcasting! By
George Margolin, Editor, editor@netsurfernews.com
Investigating Podcasting, I ran across our own Steve
Gibson, as a Podcaster! Podcasting is a way of broadcasting audio
recordings, some as MP3, some as iTunes, etc. , downloading them automatically
to your device, then listening to them offline.
Steve Gibson, president of
GRC.com , has teamed up with Leo Laporte to host “Security Now” podcasts,
which you can find at :
http://grc.com/securitynow.htm His latest is about the Sony's "Rootkit
Technology" DRM, and others such as Unbreakable WiFi Security, Bad WiFi
Security (WEP and MAC address filtering), Rootkits, Denial of Service (DoS)
Attacks, SPYaWAREness, and Personal Password Policy plus many more. At Steve
Gibson’s website, you can get the MP3 versions with either high or low
bandwidth, a web page with any supplementary notes, a web page text transcript
of the episode, a simple text transcript of the episode , and a PDF
transcript.
Leo Laporte , now
has a podcast show called “this
WEEK in TECH”
can be found at
http://thisweekintech.com/ . He has a very good show. You may remember
him from Tech TV Screensavers. You can get it directly, or via a RSS feed, or
even as adding it to your MY Yahoo page. Actually the acronym is called
"Twit".
