BBC creates iPhone-friendly podcast directory

God bless the Beeb: they may come in for a critical shoeing from time to time, but if they’re spending my licence fee on making shedloads of podcasts available for my iPhone, I’m happy.

Specifically, the BBC has created an iPhone-friendly directory of podcasts from its various radio stations, letting you browse by station, genre or in an A-Z list. You can then stream the podcasts directly to your iPhone.

It’s a great idea, and the site itself is very slick and well-designed, giving you quick access to the podcasts without any flim-flammery. iPhone users should point their Safari browser to http://www.bbc.co.uk/podcasts to have a play with it.
