Why didn't we all just stay home today? Partly, we like to hear people talk. It’s more fun than reading. Podcasts (downloadable audio files created on a computer) allow us to easily become radio producers and exploit the power of audio. The listener may relate on an intimate level to discussions, conversations, and stories that are communicated through this medium. Therefore, science topics with strong societal or human connections are ideal candidates for podcasting. Nanotechnology has the potential to change the world through advances in medicine, computing, environmental sensing, renewable energy, fuel, and more. The public remains largely uninformed, however, about nanotechnology, and its potential benefits and risks. I will show you how we have used podcasts to broadcast conversations with researchers about nanotechnology. I will also talk about other public programs at the Exploratorium which engage the public in discussions about this emerging science. (See http://www.nisenet.org/)
