Freeze Frame!

Friday, December 30th, 2005

From Cameron:
“TPN would like to advise that we are doing some important server maintenance on from Dec 31 - Jan 2 and our comments system will be down during that period. Regular access to podcasts and blog posts should not be affected during this time. Thanks for your patience!”
So there :)

Happy Holidays to All!

Sunday, December 25th, 2005

Well the holidays are here and I have officially banned myself from blogging. Kelly is incredulous that I can go two days without blogging, but I’m really going to try. The good news is that I have a new Motorola V710 cell phone […]

Merry Christmas from the Penguin Foundation.

Saturday, December 24th, 2005

The Penguin Foundation emailed off this little holiday missive because of the show’s donation. Too cute :)

Holiday Show Shedule.

Friday, December 23rd, 2005

After much consideration, math, meetings, and PIM collisions Kelly and I have come up with the following very complicated show schedule for the holiday season. Ready? Here it is…
We’re done. See you in 2006.
Complicated, eh?
Seriously, I had hoped to get one more show […]

I’m So Smart

Friday, December 16th, 2005

Sometimes I do something smart without even realizing it at the time. My recent request on the show for digital audio player recommendations was one of those things (see how I can make anything all about me?). I had basically decided to get an iRiver for Xmas because I want to play OGGs. I knew […]

Come Write a Book.

Wednesday, December 14th, 2005

I have a half-baked (but still doing it!) idea to write a book about Podcasting in the GNU/Linux community. I don’t know much, but I figure by now I know as much as anyone else (well, except for Linc, Dan, Pat, and Allen) about this crazy podcasting thing so it’s time to immortalize some of […]

Linus: Gnome Mentality ‘a Disease’.

Wednesday, December 14th, 2005

What desktop manager does Linus Torvalds think you should use?
Well, he called the Gnome Project’s mentality ‘a disease’ today and urged people to move to KDE.
That’s gotta hurt…
Here’s the Usenet posting link.

Promoting Non-DRM Music on the Show?

Tuesday, December 13th, 2005

I’d like to promote non DRM’d music more. I buy a lot of stuff from Magnatune and MP3tune.com and generally blog about it when I do. However, Magnatune will let me podcast their music and I’m interested in doing that.
But, at the end of the day, this is a GNU/Linux show and not a pop […]

No Mail Merge with OOo2 again. I’m still waiting for OOo2 to show up in the Linspire CNR. That’s OK, we’d rather learn about amaroK, right?
