Top 10 Web Design / Web Development Podcasts
Nowadays, Podcasting is gaining a ceaseless increasing interest. The word podcasting was created by blending the words “iPod” and “broadcast”. This is due to the fact that the first podcasting scripts were developed for Apple iPod portable media player. However, an iPod is no longer required to listen to podcasts. Most Media Players will do the job! I prefer iTunes though as it allows searching podcasts, subscribing to them (free and paid podcasts do exist) and of course listening to them. iTunes offers really cool features for this.
Podcasts are generally a series of audio or video files which are diffused on the web via syndicated download, through Web feeds. So they are a perfect combination of RSS specification and the MP3 compression algorithm.
Over the few last years I gathered a nice collection of podcasts that I like to watch/listen to. I am going to share with you the top 10 podcasts that I favor when it comes to Web Design and Web Development.
1. BoagWorld.com
Paul Boag’s Podcast (co-hosted with Marcus Lillington) started since August 2005. It has, as of today, 147 episodes. Episode 148 will be released within a week or so. Paul deals with different subjects related to the web design business. He usually invites some big names to the show. The live streaming recording is a nice bonus too!
2. SitePoint.com
A fairly new, yet excellent Podcast, that started last November (2008). The Hosts are Brad Williams, Patrick O’Keefe, Stephan Segraves, and Kevin Yank. The SP Podcast is about The Web industry. This is an outstanding show with different point of views. 5 episodes till now but the 6th is in its way soon!
3. Photoshop User TV
An excellent Podcast to watch for Photoshoppers! Hosted by the Photoshop guys: Dave Cross, Matt Kloskowski, and Scott Kelby from the National Association of Photoshop Professionals (NAPP). The Photoshop guys share each week some very nice Adobe Photoshop tutorials, along with some very cool tips and tricks that will hugely increase your Photoshop productivity. 167 episodes for now.
4. Web Design TV
This podcast is produced by .net magazine. This podcast deals with different web design aspects and presents several software tutorials and tips (CSS, Graphic design, Flash, Photoshop…). The podcast started back in March 2008 and 28 episodes were released till now.
5. Adobe Creative Suite Video Podcast
The Adobe Creative Suite Podcast features tips and tutorials mainly about Photoshop, Indesign and other Adobe CS software. It is hosted by Terry White. This is a 2 years old podcast that started in 2006 and still active till now.
6. The Rissington Podcast
Hosted by famous web designers John Oxton and Jon Hicks. Deals with Web geeky stuff. Started in late 2007. 19 podcast episodes were released.
7. php|architect’s PHP Podcast (P3)
A bi-weekly radio-style podcast full of news, events and discussions about PHP. It is probably one of the oldest Podcasts on the net as it started since 2003.
8. Appclinic
A video Podcast with tutorials for graphic designers hosted by Adam Hay.
9. Rookie Designer
An audio podcast about web design as a job/career hosted also by Adam Hay. This podcast wasn’t very active lately but the early episodes are great.
10. Rails Podcast
A nice rails podcast.
Now even if some of these are less active these days, listening to older episodes is really a good thing that will help learn tons of things. Most of them are available for subscription via Apple iTunes which the media player I really recommande for podcasts.

BoagWorld.com is hands down the best. In my opinion it's much better than photoshop user tv. It's layout and editing is much much more simple. Check it out.
Great post and while im not the biggest fan of Photoshop User TV, this post has a fantastic list.

Do you think BoagWorld.com is the best? I'm personally a BIG fan of SitePoint's podcast. I always loved their tutorials online and their podcasts haven't disappointed me yet. They have an indepth knowledge of all things related to webdevelopment.
What's the favorite podcast of the author by the way?

I know of SitePoint already but never heard of BoagWorld. I'll give it a go, thanks! I'm tempted to start one myself in New Zealand.
I'll also give Photoshop TV a try. I'm always amazed when I find a new quicker way of doing stuff in Photoshop. For example, it used to take me upto an hour or 2 to remove the background on stock photos for my websites. But only a week ago I found out there are various stock photo sites (Shutterstock's not bad) that have stock photos with clipping paths. I can now remove the background seconds, rather than 30mins – hours.
I'm quite embarrassed I never knew THAT one before. LOL.

I have to agree with Peter Moss about getting really good pointers on the CSS visuals, btu especially about the design of your website. I think it is awesome. And about the webdevelopment girl, I definitely think that BoagWorld.com is the best! not a big fan of SitePoint's podcast.
