About time. And product. And being more deliberate.
This triple play was tough, two of these songs were sitting in the queue for a while now awaiting a third. This morning inspiration struck – like that scene from Pulp Fiction. Conventional wisdom says there’s a fine line separating pleasure and pain. These three songs aren’t sure which side they’re on. Stevie Nix from …

Splogs or spam-blogs are a problem I’ve touched on before. I find them annoying and whenever Technorati points me to something smelling sploggy, I hit my SplogReporter bookmarklet. My criteria for splog: whole-cloth copying of another weblog’s post minimal or nonexistent attribution to the original authors and weblogs no explicit “we’re aggregating these sites” messaging …
The current problems cannot be fixed by the behaviors, processes, and relationships that caused them. Not completely fixed is better than completely broken.
Recently, I realized how convoluted and complex the production process is for the First Crack Podcast. Now, the process doesn’t need to be this complex. Nor did it start out this way for me. This process was an evolution, developed as I discovered the weaknesses of the applications I’m using and how I’m using them. …
Since finally listening to Dave Slusher’s the Human Touch presentation from the Podcast and Portable Media Expo, I’ve been thinking a lot about ‘equivalent power’. The notion that if you want to rebut anything I write on any of my blogs, you can do so on your own blog or podcast. This is different than …
When I started podcasting a year ago I was questioning Public Radio’s role in my life. The news and regular programs were no longer satisfying. Then they started the Current – kept me supporting them for a couple months. Then, it started to sound more like more of the same and hey, look, interesting stuff …
“Let’s just focus – we might have to eat some turtle.” This is the Big Catch Up we’ve missed the last couple of episodes. Detour: Pioneer Spirit or Native Tradition? We’re going for assembling the wagon wheels and horse team. I’m feeling like the horse team might not be _that_ much trouble. Buffalo Bill is …
After a couple months of being completely without site analytics, I thought I’d try out Google Analytics. Things it doesn’t measure; RSS feeds, downloads, downloads from RSS feeds. Considering 95% of what I’m tracking is accessible via an RSS feed (like podcasts). Google isn’t helping me. The previous iteration of their tool – Urchin, was …
Back when Jen and I were dating, I made a mix tape for her entitled ‘Breakup Song Not Included’ – I think it’s still around here somewhere too. She took one look at the track list and declared, “Everyone of these songs is a break up song.” She was right. And if you know who …

There’s been a problem since the dawn of podcasting – how to find interesting, new things to listen to. For the past year, my strategy: subscribe to the notoriously noisy BlogDigger for say, a day or so then frantically unsubscribe – the phrase “drink from the firehose” seems appropriate here. Listen to everything over the …
