Chris Gondek over at the Invisible Hand Podcast had a great interview with Philip Meza the author of the book "Coming Attractions: Hollywood, High Tech, and the Future of Entertainment
" that is definitely worth a listen.
The one great thing in the podcast was that Chris let Philip outline some key recommendations that companies and organizations should be doing to excel in this new media world.

Today’s podcast brings listeners some great audio interviews of attendees at the recent Manager-Tools Effective Manager Conference.
The collective wisdom of this podcast is based on the answers to the question: "What is your biggest take away from attending this conference?"
You can also get my complete personal impressions of the conference via an interview I did with Douglas E. Welch on his Career Opportunities podcast.
This podcast is sponsored by: SCOTTEVEST (SeV) – makers of fine tech clothing. And thanks to Zimbra for sponsoring our recent attendance at eTech 2007 (podcast review).

A couple of related articles that I ripped out of the print version of Wired several months back are pretty interesting if you spend any time thinking about alternative housing designs for the future.
The first is Andrew Blum’s look at the Glassic Soho designed by Christopher Deam.
The second is Asami Novack’s one-pager on Richard Horden’s m-ch.
I like the simple flexible designs, and the energy self-sustaining technologies.

It triggered my memory on a question I had a while back that was similar. My thought was based on noticing that Google 3D Warehouse City Collection has a good number of virtual buildings built by Google.
Is Google poised to put in virtual ads within a building based on map searches that lead to virtual tours?

I have to echo Reel Reviews Radio’s recommendation for the movie Thank You For Smoking.
Based on the podcast review, I ordered it from the library on Thursday and picked it up on Friday. Christy and I watched it on Friday night. It was very enjoyable and funny.

Jersey Boys fans are all over the planet and very friendly. I recently made some new friends of the podcast while attending the Manager-Tools.com’s Effective Manager Conference in Washington DC. Here is a picture snapped by Peter K during his recent visit to NYC:

I haven’t been following this story very closely but I just read this article at CNN because it had a picture of Rusty Hodge (Grove Salad) who does Soma.fm which I do enjoy from time from time.
It looks like some changes in the royalty business and regulatory oversight that makes doing future Internet radio/streaming very difficult.
From a technical standpoint I think this is going to bleed over to podcasting, since a lot of listeners are effectively streaming from website links.
More info from the Pandora Blog also on this topic, that links to some resources to help fight these changes.
