3. The Podcasts on My iPod
I used to try to listen to Podcasts on my computer as I worked, but I realized that I wasn’t really paying attention with the phone ringing, e-mail flowing in, and a big inbox in front of me.
So I finally picked up an iPod a few months back, and made it a habit to get out of the office to get fresh air and listen to podcasts.
There are still some distractions, as my Blackberry tempts me into some e-mail action while walking around, but I’m mostly able to focus on the shows, and I find a great amount of value in them.
Here are the shows I have loaded in my iPod:
I also subscribe to Affiliate Thing, but the only times I’ve listened where when Sam Harrelson subbed for me. I don’t see any use in listening to shows that I co-hosted.
So, am I missing out on any good shows?

6. This Would Be Great Affiliate Video
There is a really entertaining video blog on wine called Wine Library TV, hosted by Gary Vaynerchuk.
 The whole series of videos focuses on wines that are available at the Wine Library in Springfield, NJ.
I’d seen a billboard for the show on Route 78 West on the way back from Newark Airport a few times, and finally checked it out about a month ago. Now it’s my favorite vlog, and I don’t even drink wine.
Anyhow, the Wine Library doesn’t have an affiliate program, but if they did, I think these videos would make for some great affiliate creative.
(Hey affiliate networks - you should give these guys a call about getting an affiliate program going!)
Check out Wine Library TV host, Gary Vaynerchuk, on the Conan O’Brien show tonight.
As always, I'd love to hear from you! Drop me a line and let me know if you have any suggestions or questions.
