iPod Resources
Many years ago, the only bit of technology a
traveler needed was a compass. These days, it’s an object only slightly larger: an
iPod.
Apple’s wonderful iPod has evolved from a music player to an electronic jack-of-all-trades. In the process, it has become almost indispensable for travelers. Keeping up with all the latest wonders this miraculous device can perform, however, is a full time job. I was therefore relieved to come across the following article in National Geographic Traveler addressing this very issue.
In addition to the obvious, music, journalist Andrew Nelson provides information and links for a bevy of MP3 applications and downloads that will make your next trip far more enjoyable: podcasts, maps, guidebooks, audio books, video, photo storage, and more. My new favorite application? Downloadable subway maps for 23 cities around the globe. Now, if my iPod could only tell me which direction is north, I can finally throw away my trusty compass.
