I couldn't decide if it was a language barrier thing or an actual semi-innuendo thing, or maybe just a slightly clueless thing. I got a smile both times, though. What would it cost to buy both the sparkly euroballs and the dangling set, I wonder?

More usefully, the Parrot Talks website has a useful Podcasting 101 PDF file (scroll down the page a bit) that will help get someone you know who doesn't know the first thing about podcasting set up with iTunes and some subscriptions. It's a useful and very well designed document.
