The Curse of The Fatal PDA Death?

Right, tounge in cheek time, but what do I have to do to keep a contact employed in the Smartphone/PDA field longer than five minutes? Today seems to have been a day of goodbyes, what with The Feature closing up, Sendo going into administration (and only a few days before my review X2 was going […]

Apple iTunes 4.9 and Podcasting

A-ha, iTunes 4.9 downloadable from the web is here long before the July 7th mystery press conference. There’s been a lot of waiting for this, and in the last 24 hours, podcasters and listeners the world over are diving in and finding out what Apple are doing.
Okay the basics first, adding a feed to a […]

The Herald Article on Podcasting (featuring yours truly)

Well the article from The Herald I mentioned previously has been published today - so the supplemental material about The Podcast Network didn’t get a chance to be included (but you can read most of it over on Cameron’s blog where he talks about year two in podcasting). Anyway, some choice quotes from The Herald…
…the […]

Podcasting The Edinburgh Fringe

I’m seriously considering putting together a “Edinburgh Fringe” Podcast, in conjunction (obviously) with The Podcast Network. I’ve had a hint of an idea about this for some time, and then main worry has been twofold. The first, having the time to get out in the evening to see the acts and interview them (plus all […]

The Glasgow Herald Interviewed me about Podcasting

It’s been a hectic few days for my podcasting exploits. So glad that the All About Symbian and Palm world had a slow news week and some articles already written for the site respectivly, because I’ve been doing a bundle of PR.
The Herald (for those unfamiliar, that’ll be the Glasgow Herald, circulation around 245,000 throughout […]

Podcasting Being Mugged By The Alley

So how do you measure the success of your Podcasts? Or (to spin it around) how do you find the Podcasts to fill up your Minidisc or MP3 Player? Well you could use Google and see what you come up with as the top link. You could just head over to somewhere that runs quality […]

Angela Lansbury IS Doctor Who (Spoiler Free)

Well, not quite (I know all about suicidal regenerations and their effects on Time Lords) but before the final episode of the latest season of Doctor Who, I thought I’d post up one or two thoughts that point to my theories on what’s going on. This post is spoiler free, so I’m being vague, and […]

Now Sir, Tell Me Who You Are

Could everyone who reads this please answer the following questions? Relax though, because it’s not at all invasive, it’s simply what the UK Government’s ID Card and Backend database is asking to prove you are who you say you are. And naturally it’s not covered by the Data Protection Act.
After all, if you’re innocent you’ve […]

How Foolproof is Almost Foolproof

Always reject answers that don’t have an estimate of error. That was drilled into me in the first year of High School Physics. And supported by many a mock exam (I missed the real exam, “The Wrath of Khan” was on the telly). So when I saw this article in The Register, and the Head […]
