My Thoughts on PodShow’s PodSafe Music Network Terms and Conditions

I did say I was going to talk about the PodShow Podsafe Music Network TnC’s, although the initial bullet point review is more courtesy of Cory over at Boing Boing.

The problem is that in return for access to PodCast music, you agree to a license that prohibits you from referencing “software piracy (warez, cracking, etc.), [...]

The Daily Show with Jon Stewart is UK Bound

Excuse me while I burst out to joyous laughter. The Daily Show is coming to the UK!

Steve Jobs is the new “The Man” for Indie Music (Apple, iTunes and Music Podcasting)

Cameron asks, over at The Podcast Network, why iTunes aren’t listing the TPN music shows, including my music show, TPN Rock? It’s a simple question I have no answer for. The Edinburgh Fringe Podcast started on August 1st, was in ITMS world-wide in about 24 hours, and even hit the Top 100 (it peaked at [...]

Tube Relief: Wish I Was There

Good luck to everyone doing Tube Relief today. In case you missed it, Geoff Marshall (he of the world record holding visit every station in the Underground) and a team of twenty people are attempting to visit every single Tube Station (all twenty through all 275) to raise money for the victims of the London [...]

The Biggest Cause of Music Piracy – the Apple iPod and “Mass Storage” MP3 Players

“Home taping isn’t killing music, music’s dying of natural causes,” sings Mitch Benn, and he’d be right. But posts about the quality of music from The Men are for another tim. I see that under the fair and just and right American legal system and the recent Grokster case that advertising (or even creating) devices [...]

Makezine and the Endoscope

Hey it’s not much, but thanks PT for the linkback on this story.

Follow The Blue Brazil

It’s that time of year again for footbnall, so bookmarks set to Cowdenbeath.net, Brian Frasers comprehensive news and match reports website. It really is screaming out for a decent blog engine to power it rather than what appears to be a by hand site in Dreamweaver. Brian, if you’re reading this, get in touch on [...]

Be Honest, It’s Time To Scuttle The Shuttle

Discovery makes it back (that’s good) and watching the live footage when it did, with a single IR camera focussed on the Shuttle from 125,000 feet to it’s eventual touchdown and rolling out, there was part of me wondering if that was it, the last shuttle flight.
Putting politics aside, and the practice of farming out [...]

Moving House Part The First

So yes, I’ve moved house. While I’m no longer in thehouse I escaped London to, I’m still in Edinburgh. Given I’m covering the Edinburgh Fringe that’s not surprising. So I’m surrounded by boxes, queezed into a single bedroom, with a MacGyvered Wi-Fi network hanging out of the downstairs computer. Yes, staying with family isn;t much [...]

More Podcasts: With No Need For VC Funding Either.

Yes, inbetween half moving house (now staying with family for the three weeks until the new place in Edinburgh is available to move into), I’ve managed to keep both TPN Rock and The Edinburgh Fringe Podcast running. Okay TPN Rock is still missing some URL’s in the Show Notes, but they’ll be up asap when [...]
