I <3 NPR

NPR is always on at work, but until this summer I didn’t work enough to really soak in the full news coverage. After coming home from work today and watching the main-stream nightly news, I noticed how good NPR’s coverage actually is. They even beat Digg
a lot of the time. Last week NPR reported on a new phone available from T-Mobile that allowed the use of VOIP over WIFI instead of cell minutes. This feature works in your own home (free router provided) and with T-Mobile’s hot spots. It just made Digg today.

There is a downside though. NPR has been way too interested in politics lately. BOOORINGGG. That’s when I turn a podcast on.
