Ok, Tim Wilson has an interesting post about creativity and rewards. However, what stopped me dead in my tracks was that he has a hyperlink to a clip from the podcast that he was listening to. Not a link to the podcast in its entirety, but a link to just the clip that he’s talking about. This is one of those “things that I wish I was able to do when refering to podcasts”. In Alan’s infamous post, Yawncasting, he talks about that being one of the problems with podcasting. It’s hard to tell a reader that you’re talking about something that occurs 3:45 into the podcast. However, being able to provide a direct link to it is huge! Now apperantly, the system that IT Conversations uses for this is some sort of fancy scripting, but I’d love to discover some way to link to specific parts of mp3 files myself, especially for files that are hosted on other servers. It would be fantastic for blogging as well as show notes for podcasting! Any ideas out there?

Now I need to go back and re-read the rest of that post. Intrinsic and extrinsic rewards have always been a fascinating topic to me.
