Fabulous Work on PodCasting

Wednesday, March 30th, 2005

Super work in describing the hardware techniques of PodCasting. I’ve been reading very closely, and working mainly on content ideas for my podcast(s). Content, Content, Content…unique content is where it’s at. I’m not sure exactly what the schedule will be, but I’ll come up with something soon.
Just a short note for now….more […]

Say it aint so…

Monday, March 28th, 2005

An applematters article discusses the current state and ultimate fate of podcasting, and, dismayingly, discusses the probability that Podcasting as we know it, with it’s warm, human and grassroots feel, is destined to be edged out by the pro’s, who, with an ever-tightening grip on the medium, will do what they do.

Great Blog for PodCast Resources!

Monday, March 28th, 2005

An excellent site for new podcasters (like me, sort of HYPER-NEW as I’ve not started yet!), with a new forum that will hopefully allow those of us keen on the idea/techniques of podcasting to congregate. Excellent audio presentation on the Kel HM-1 Mic, as well as recommendations for entry to professional level gear.
Highly recommended!

Great Americano

Sunday, March 27th, 2005

I recently roasted a batch of Les’ “Triple Blend” (for those of you who don’t know, Les Albjerg is a solid gold contributor to the SweetMarias Homeroast coffee list, and master lathe craftsman), about 20 seconds into second crack. I’m now using a Turbo/Crazy roaster, a cheap but massively effective setup for roasting […]

Do you know the Wikipedia?

Thursday, March 24th, 2005

I’ll let you explore the main page of Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia….
an amazing concept, but, I’m sure, very familiar to bloggers….more later, but just a note from the Wiki for now.

The Eyes of Nye

Wednesday, March 23rd, 2005

I’m impressed that Bill Nye the Science Guy (a student in the late Carl Sagan’s classes at Cornell) will be returning to the air with his own show, The Eyes of Nye, looking at pretty serious scientific issues, as is noted in this /. article.

Students Do Better Without Computers

Wednesday, March 23rd, 2005

is the title of a /. article today, the full article is from the Telegraph. Basically, the gist of the article is that the less pupils use computers at school and at home, the better they do on international tests of literacy and math.

More PodCast Options

Monday, March 21st, 2005

PodShow.com is a new site apparently in association with Adam Curry.. I’m not sure how this site is going to work. I usually HATE to see things start going commercial….I don’t have a clue as to how the service works. I’m certianly willing to give Adam the benefit of the doubt, and […]

Why PastelDust

Thursday, March 17th, 2005

Well, I am a pastel portraitist……not by trade but by avocation. I love portraiture, and to be more accurate, I create portraits in Pastel, Charcoal and Graphite. My “company” as it were (DBA truth be told) is CyberLight Studios…a name and domain that I’ve owned for many years. Things have been […]

Winter Doldrums Continue

Saturday, March 12th, 2005

It’s difficult to overestimate the power of SAD to ruin your day. During these late winter months, it almost seems that winter will never end…here in northern Michigan, we’ve got 9 months of snow, and 3 months of bad sledding a year.
Seems the SATs are now 2400 points, lots of reading and writing. […]

It’s a Tremendous Read

Wednesday, March 9th, 2005

I’ve been reading (both in print form and via Audible audiobook) “The Fabric of the Cosmos” by Brian Greene. Wow. Dr. Greene is a worthy successor to my mentor, the late Dr. Carl Sagan. I can’t say enough about the goodness of this book….many pages of reading goodness. […]
