The main article is about RSS. The right side of the page has info about different users... this is the bit which mentions podcastalley:

NATURAL BORN TECHIE

Sophie Russell, 19, medical student

Sophie is in her first year at university. She can’t imagine a world without the internet. Her uptake of new technologies is instinctive, and RSS is integral to how she approaches the net. She loves her Mac laptop, and her newsreader is NetNewsWire. She turns to www.newsisfree.com/sources/bycat for quick access to information (BBC News, television headlines from Digital Spy, health news from Reuters and gossip from Ananova, as well as CNN and No 10). She also subscribes to feeds from her friends’ web logs and they subscribe to the feed from hers (which she made using www.myrsscreator.com). This is not a way of sharing private thoughts, but of co-ordinating diaries. Sophie chose www.flickr.com to host her online photo album because it has an RSS feed, so her family and friends know when a new picture has been posted. Her latest joy is podcasting (downloading and recording internet radio): she learnt about it at www.podcastalley.com, downloaded iPodder from www.ipodder.net and updates her radio show, Sophie’s Sensible Collection of Tunes, almost every day. She doesn’t think about RSS at all.
