    I am playing around with Feedburner.  If you read this blog via RSS client please update your subscription URL to: http://feeds.feedburner.com/sholden.  I don’t think the other one goes away, but the nice thing about Feedburner is that it gives about 1000% better stats than Typepad.com (which is a great blogging tool but they don’t do stats very well IMHO).

  • EGC – Learned some stuff

    November 5, 2004

    +

    +

    +

    Dave Slusher is doing an great job with Evil Genius Chronicles (EGC).  Some things I’ve picked up after catching up with podcasts for 10-24-2004, 10-26-2004, and 10-30-2004:

    • ‘To win an argument you have to be willing to lose an argument.’
    • ‘If you are thinking of others as "them" then you’ll probably never be apart of them.’
    • DQE is a great band
    • The book by Robert Rodriguez "Rebel Without a Crew" sounds like a great book for anyone doing a "start-up"

  • RRGS – Sticker Junkie

    Michael Butler @ the very interesting The Rock and Roll Geek Show(RRGS) podcast has made bumper stickers for his show via Sticker Junkie.

    I am not sure if my first attempt at a Tech Rag Tear Outs (TRTO) bumper sticker is going to be a winner.

    I do think I’d put a www.podcasting.org sticker on my 4Runner.

  • Curry – Daily Source Code – MP3 Tools

    November 3, 2004

    +

    +

    +

    +

    +

    Adam Curry noted in the Daily Source Code (DSC-2004-10-25 & DSC-2004-10-25) that he is going to evaluate several new MP3 hardware tools to improve his recording capabilities: Samsung Yepp 55V (256-MBs, USB, Audio-In, Microphone, variable sample rates); iRiver 790; and EZ-AV Audio Player (from Asia).

    [Note: Amazon has a Yepp YP-T5V which might be the unit forsale in the U.S.]

  • Building Podcast Scripts or Outlines

    November 3, 2004

    +

    +

    +

    +

    +

    +

    I know that Adam Curry is working on building a Radio/Frontier podcast production tool that you could use to help in the creation of a podcast.

    I have been doing most of mine actually in FrontPage because it makes it easy to take the rendered HTML and post it in TypePad.

    However, I tried on my last podcast to use MindManager Pro because all the data I wanted to use was in Outlook and there is a button that get’s inserted in Outlook after installing MindManager that lets you export Outlook selected items to MindManager. However, it only works apparently with Mail, Contacts, Calendar items, and Notes; but it doesn’t work with Posts which is what most of the RSS/blog items come in as via Newsgator.

    So, after having great visions of a well formated MindMap for my production document, I had to end up redoing all the work because I said “export” and I saw a bunch of things happen in MindManager, so I just deleted all the items that I wanted to talk about fromOutlook. Then I found out that all the Posts didn’t make it, so they were in my 1600+ deleted items folder, and it took me a good 20 minutes to find them all again (I knew I should have made them all flagged a certain color before trying the export).

    Oh the joys of trying to be bleeding edge ….
