lingo blogs

Podcasting, apparently a "new" phenomenon, has spread to
the French. A quick search on Google led me to the first
french podcast released in August 2005, by Radio Canada.
But Opera being Opera, you get to listen to the MP3 while
downloading it. I was hoping for some french music to go
along with it. Instead, it was a lot of babble. Music, they
say, is a universal language. But French is another story
altogether for me. One link led to another and soon I found
myself at an interesting site. Do try and give this
following site a go, it's quite interesting:

Apparently, there's a whole lot of people blogging about
language. It's an interesting topic. Language is
ever-evolving and the task of working with language is one
that should never be belittled. Choosing the right words
for that crucial piece of translation might be the
difference that portrays you, two generations down, as a
witty, eloquent and interesting person (instead of an old
stick in the mud). "Orneta" is a page where you can find
lots of the language related blogs.
