Interesting site! So, how do you find your favourites? Search engines? Recommendations from friends? URLs mentioned on other shows? It's always interesting to me to learn how people learn about podcasts.
Ha! Back in the day, before anyone really knew about podcasts, I found the search engines the most helpful, but now my info comes mostly from recommendations of others. The trick still is how to show the 'never-listened' public how vast this world is. Any ideas for that?

I believe social recommendation engines will be the next big thing.
