Online music community GarageBand.com has announced GarageBand Podcast Studio, “the world’s first Web-based tool to record, mix and publish a podcast.”

CBC Sports asked several sports stars such as Brett Hull, Chris Bosh, and Jennie Finch about their iPods—how long they’ve had one, how often and when do they use it, and their top five songs.

Merritt Island Christian School (Florida) graduates received free iPods. At their commencement, Rev. Byron Cutrer defined “iPod” as an acronym for “individuality,” “passion,” helping “others” and a lifetime of “doing.”
