Besides radio talk, there are many education materials! This is the site: http://www.rthk.org.hk/
Great flash animation and great background music!
I especially like:
Chinese history

Chinese poetry
http://www.rthk.org.hk/chiculture/chipoem/
I think great education material revitalized with great animation is a field of tremendous potential.
Imagine how history books become more lively if I can hear Martin Lurther King speak while reading his biography. Imagine how much better a teach-yourself-piano or guitar book will be if we can hear a tune. Ok, this is not entirely new idea. I already have a piano book that points me to a particular track on the accompanying CD. How about just click/tap right on it. Can't be done on just paper, of course.
Books turning to ebooks with electronic reader is becoming more common. Modern ebook reader actually looks like reading paper now.
Children have been playing with pseudo animated books for years, like press a button to hear Mickey Mouse talk.
How about letting readers click on books like Flash programs on a computer to enhance reading experience?
My almost impossible long term goal: learn enough flash and art skills to enhance my java applets for my book.
Ok, I probably will never have the time and effort nor the talent.
