Comedy on Radio4 is the only thing I seek out. Other than that it fills the quiet, or the noise of transport. Radio is cheap, and the lines between internet and traditional radio are blurred much more so than with TV (for one, there's

I hope one at the end of his political career, by choice, might push ahead anyway. He could announce something like Yes, I did blow and hookers, five years ago. But the NSA does this pressure for silence to so many more people.

Apple's iMessage fits those criteria. I imagine some Pidgin/Adium plugin could as well (even on an insecure chat network), and IRC is easy to set up with a self signed certificate.
