Hear of podcasting? No? You must be a troglodyte

podcast-logo.png Today's word was suggested by Garrick over at The First Crack Podcast "heavily caffeinated public radio". The word is troglodyte and Garrick came across the word at The Trend Junkie. The Trend Junkie is a podcast that covers trends in marketing, technology and media. I have only listened to one of Garrick's First Crack Podcasts but it very interesting. It was recorded at a bar and on top of that it was about the Stapleton development in Denver- only a few blocks from my home. Also check out his site for a cool podcasting button.

Back to the word. A troglodyte is a person who lives in a cave. It has also come to mean a person who dislikes or afraid of technology like a luddite. The word evolved from the Greek trogle meaning a hole and dyein meaning to enter.
