Sybase gets into Podcasting

I listened today to a podcast from Sybase on "The Art of Performance and Tuning - General Best Practices". Historic in its own way as I believe its the first ever podcast released by the company, certainly for ASE.

Sybase has also been trying its hand at webinars, and the tech team have their own blogs. Combined, these techniques could prove to be a breakthrough for experienced DBAs who have long ago "finished" the phase of the five-day formal training course. Podcasting can chunk up about an hour's worth of good training material - tips & tricks, real-world case studies and the like.

Its usually the Java programmers who wear earphones all day, I welcome the chance to don a pair now and then for some useful podcasts from the mother ship.
