Last night I played with iTunes new podcast feature. From a user perspective it’s just magic. By far the best way to browse, search and subscribe to podcasts. It’s a big step closer to the ease of use that we’ve been waiting for. In fact while sitting down for dinner I wondered at the next […]

A true community beer company has announced that it’s going to list on the Newcastle Stock Exchange, and I chat with their CEO and Spokesmodel to see how it came about, where it’s going from here and how to read email on the […]

The other day I spent some time to jot down my current thoughts about podcasting. Cameron liked it so much he posted it on the TPN blog.
Imagine my surprise when today I find that someone liked it so much they copied it, without credit. Sure there are a few changes, but even my spelling mistakes […]

This edition has the second special Foofpod competition. Answer the simple question in the show and win.
I also have to apologize for the slight lag in the two audio streams. Leo mentioned before the call that the Skype call was perfect. […]

I would love to have the number 1 search result for Richard, but Stallman, Dawkins and even Simmons beats me out. Yet Chris Pirillo has the top billing for his given name. With Gnomedex rapidly approaching it made a lot of sense to […]

The computer industry’s best conspiracy theorist, Robert X. Cringley, has a fantastic story about Apple and Intel. He theorizes that the two major technology suppliers are merging. Shame that it’s just a story though. One with more holes than Microsoft’s security. There is one so wide that you could sail Larry Ellison’s yacht through. Why […]

I’ve been listening to the Barry White’esque tones of Steve Gillmor for many months now. He recently relaunched his Gillmor Gang Podcast on Curry’s Podshow, after a three month hiatus and started a new show called Gillmor Daily, that may or may not […]

I’ve just bought myself a U.S. SkypeIn account. My Voicemail was about to expire so I thought I’d give the other service a whirl. All in the name of research of course.
So if you want to use a landline to call me, and don’t mind the call cost, the number is +1 (707) 703-1337. Otherwise […]

Xeni at Boing Boing points to a new Group on Flickr, Crappy Bootlegs. It’s for photos or scans of bootleg DVD covers. You know the ones with spelling that’d make a dyslectic cringe, incorrect actor names and just plain dodgy photoshop kludges. It’s beautiful pop art!
You can see my contribution here, along with the screen […]
