I've been, oh, listening to an excellent audiobook. Timeline by Michael 75 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:04,160 Criton. It's the unabridged version, which means in total it's 14 hours worth of spoken 76 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:08,800 words. Speaker's actually pretty good. He's doing accents because part of it, at least 77 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:15,000 the part that I'm at now, is situated in France, so he's doing French accents. So, 78 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:24,720 no, it's actually quite cool. Good book. And I bought it off of Audible.com. Really convenient. 79 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:28,480 I'm big audiobook so much. And since I didn't catch much on the iPad, 80 00:05:28,500 --> 00:05:35,100 Potter script the other night. So for Dave's audio blog, I figured I'd just 81 00:05:35,100 --> 00:05:38,780 listen to a book I'd already downloaded, so I'm kind of in the middle of that. 82 00:05:38,780 --> 00:05:42,700 And I actually did have a great chat with Dave Weiner. We talked about our audio 83 00:05:42,700 --> 00:05:49,660 blogs and it seems that we're almost doing a radio show together. But there 84 00:05:49,660 --> 00:05:53,060 are people listening, I'm looking at my server logs and there was at least 85 00:05:53,060 --> 00:06:01,220 well, there was over a hundred downloads of a second show that I did. And we're 86 00:06:01,220 --> 00:06:04,860 talking about how much room there is, so much room for improvement in 87 00:06:04,860 --> 00:06:08,900 distributing our audio and video files, the stuff that we make. You know, this is, 88 00:06:08,900 --> 00:06:13,660 we've got all the bits in place and I think a lot of it pertains. You know, a 89 00:06:13,660 --> 00:06:17,860 lot of the blogging stuff we're doing will fit perfectly with audio and video. A 90 00:06:17,860 --> 00:06:21,900 lot of it won't really wasn't intended that way. And it's just interfaces. You 91 00:06:21,900 --> 00:06:25,740 know, all I think all the stuff is there.
