TPN Survey Request.

Friday, November 11th, 2005

We’re running our second survey on The Podcast Network to gather some information from our listeners. The survey asks for a little personal information (income and relationship status), but the rest is only about your podcasting habits. It’s anonymous and quick - I took it myself.
You’ve heard all the blah-blah before about ‘this survey will […]

Here S/He is!

Thursday, November 10th, 2005

Here he (she?) is! Our new mascot.
Who knew some penguins had blue heads? I sure didn’t. Please send your suggestions in to Kelly (kellypenguingirl at gmail) for names. It’s so sad to have a penguin with no name…
Here’s the accompanying letter (click on it to make it readable) :)

The Penguin is Here!

Thursday, November 10th, 2005

We got our package today with a pic and some info about our new mascot. I’ll be posting it later on tonight or tomorrow. He’s got a blue head!
Now all we need is a name for him. Got a suggestion? Email Kelly Penguin Girl at kellypenguingirl at gmail with your suggestions!
I think this is a […]

Lupper Linux Virus.

Wednesday, November 9th, 2005

Here’s a repost of an entry I made on New Linux User.
ZDnet is reporting a Linux virus this morning. Since there are so few Linux virii out there in the wild, I immediately get suspicious when I hear of one. I investigated this virus and here are my thoughts on it:
First off, while everyone is […]

Srinivasan is running a series called ‘One day, One command’. The series highlights a new command each day for GNU/Linux systems.
Srinivasan runs the Free Software Blog which is where you can catch the ODOC series, or you can link right to the Technorati ODOC tag, here.

No Show This Week.

Sunday, November 6th, 2005

I’ve had some real life crop up and slap me in the face. It’s a short-term problem, but it’s something that has to be taken care of right now and therefore we won’t be able to get a show out this weekend as we normally do.
We played with the idea of just posting show #23 […]

Penguin Package Enroute!

Thursday, November 3rd, 2005

I just received word from Courtney at the Penguin Foundation that they’ve sent our package out. How long will it take to get to me here in Canada? Who knows, but the important thing is that it’s on it’s way.
Stay tuned for more details!

RSS fixed!

Wednesday, November 2nd, 2005

WordPress screweth and WordPress fixeth. Before we could even figure out what the problem was, WordPress seems to have fixed itself. Sorry for the inconvenience folks.
Hey Jon - if they wanted to get the files manually, couldn’t they have just… like… scrolled down?

RSS Feed and Podcatchers Problem.

Wednesday, November 2nd, 2005

A couple of listeners have told me that they’re having troubles getting shows 21 and 22 down with their podcatchers. I notified Cam and Mick and they’ve confirmed that Wordpress isn’t creating the necessary enclosure elements to enable podcatching.
We’re not sure why this just started happening, but apparently it’s not just this show.
They’re on it […]
