Despite the title, there isn't much in James Gilden's article to make you think that all those travel podcasts are really going to do away with actual living, breathing tour guides -- at this point organic life forms are still a lot better at knowing their audience and dealing with questions. Most podcasts seem better suited for giving you a taste of the place before you arrive, rather than guiding you around once you're on the ground.
