Woman's Hour daily podcasts
From today Woman's Hour offers a daily podcast - Woman's Hour Choice. Each weekday you'll be able to download an item from the programme to your mp3 player and listen to it wherever you are, at your convenience.

The growth of podcasting is one sign that technology is changing fast, but new research presented at a conference later this month will suggest that this new technology is not geared towards women.

So does the new technology hold great promise for women, based as it is in building social networks between people and allowing grass-roots participation, or does it remain a world of male geekdom?

Jenni is joined by Gloria Moss, Senior research fellow at Glamorgan University Business School and Aleks Krotoski who writes and broadcasts about internet technology.
