Nice find Jay, I'm still investigating the usage, but this bit may shed some more light on what it could be used for...
What's a blog post? A blog post is just an organized group of input fields. There's a title, date, body, excerpt, author, and others. This named grouping of fields is called a content type. The Pods plugin lets you add your own content types. Instead of “hacking” blog posts into thinking they're something else, you can actually create new types of content. Events, photo galleries, document libraries… anything. Still looking at the documentation.... Adam W.
