Interesting for everyone!

Great podcast that appeals to anyone who is interested in maps, location, technology or GIS. You don’t have to be a GIS technical expert to enjoy.

Glorious GIS Geekiness

Quickly added this to my favourite podcasts list … good to hear topics like these being discussed. And being able to listen with my headphones on means no-one knows just how geeky I am!
