More annoying than you'd think. Involves the word "compile". You can just right-click and select "Do Not Auto-Delete" if you don't mind the track appearing in your list of podcasts until the end of time.

Supposedly "fun and easy to learn" - at least for a "Strongly-timed, Concurrent, and On-the-fly Audio Programming Language".

p2p mp3 streaming. Dunno about scalability. (also: peercast)

Nuh-uh. Nuh-uh. The Soundbug is a gadget that gets attached to two things: an audio source, and a flat surface. It then causes the flat surface to vibrate, turning it into a giant speaker. With two Soundbugs you get stereo sound. It's the frickin' coolest thing ever! Official site is here, looks like it might need to be ordered from the UK. (Nope, you can but it here.)
