USDA is almost podcasting on its MyPyramid website. I say almost because of this line on their podcast page: “Check back every month for a new video podcast.” Oops. That completely misses the point of podcasting which is about me watching when/where I want and being able to subscribe so I don’t have to go back to a certain web page to see if there’s a new episode.

I think it would also be a good idea since they’re doing video to load them to YouTube. Oh, wait, I did that myself:

Do you want to succeed with your New Year’s Resolution? Today, the first in a series of MyPyramid PodCasts on MyPyramid.gov, designed to help the public make better food choices, was launched by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Center for Nutrition Policy and Promotion (CNPP).

This first “PodCast,” featuring CNPP Executive Director Dr. Brian Wansink, focuses on portion sizes and small steps the public can take to keep their New Year’s Resolutions to avoid unwanted pounds and inches during the holiday season. “As people turn more and more to the Internet for advice and guidance, we have a greater opportunity to introduce helpful steps to improve the nutritional health of all Americans,” said Dr. Wansink.”
