Back in 1992 I was a copier technician. We wore shirts and ties. Then we went and ripped apart copiers and got toner all over them. It was wonderful. This eventually lead to me being a customer service person who would go into an office and teach people how to run their copier. This lead…
I love getting feedback from people who listen to any of my podcasts, but I get downright “giddy” when I get something from “across the pond.” Yesterday I received a great e-mail and a lovely voice comment from Anthony Kammerhofer who lives in Vienna Austria. We know that podcasting reaches further than any radio signal…
I just spent 30 dollars on the Real Player “PLUS” as you can now “Download video to your ipod.” Now I’m not stupid, I know there is going to be some sort of conversion process from the .rm real format to a format fit for the ipod (.mv4 probably). The problem has always been getting…

I think I’m a curse. Every time I attend a Paul Colligan webinar something flaky happens with the technology (in this instance firefox got “persnickety”). I know it’s me. When I watch replays of other webinars Paul does, they are fine. This webinar was about setting up a membership site with his Premiumcast system. I…
One the members has this unit, and just swears by it (expect to hear one on my podcast soon). Well BSW is having a 50% this great microphone premamp, noise gate, compressor, the DBX 286a. Normally it’s 300 bucks, not its $150.
I don’t know who this guy is, but he seems to have a grasp on reality.
I’ve been investigating the UNiversity of Akron’s communication degree to see if there is a place for podcasting in their cirriculum, and in one of their classes about media they use this website. http://www.poynterextra.org/eyetrack2004/articlepages.htm The whole site is about how the eye reacts to different page designs.
