WEBVTT

00:00.000 --> 00:06.000
It's Adam Curry!

00:06.000 --> 00:07.000
What's this?

00:07.000 --> 00:11.000
Take a PC and a microphone into
the bathroom?

00:11.000 --> 00:13.000
Not read.

00:13.000 --> 00:17.000
The shower of pure intellect.

00:17.000 --> 00:23.000
Do you have good light Adam and
drink the show?

00:23.000 --> 00:24.000
Cheers.

00:24.000 --> 00:26.000
The shower.

00:26.000 --> 00:27.000
Yeah.

00:28.000 --> 00:31.000
Hey everybody, welcome to your
daily source code.

00:31.000 --> 00:34.000
It's coming to you once again
from Surrey.

00:34.000 --> 00:35.000
Surrey.

00:35.000 --> 00:38.000
Adam Curry and Surrey never in a
hurry.

00:38.000 --> 00:41.000
It's from the Curry Cottage in
the United Kingdom.

00:41.000 --> 00:45.000
Today is Wednesday, December
29th, 2004.

00:47.000 --> 00:53.000
Once again a full full show for
you at the time of recording.

00:53.000 --> 00:56.000
Although I don't know if I
should tell you that every
single time.

00:56.000 --> 00:58.000
But it's kind of midday.

00:58.000 --> 00:59.000
It's 11.30.

00:59.000 --> 01:01.000
We have some friends dropping
by.

01:01.000 --> 01:03.000
Actually, they should have been
here about half an hour ago.

01:03.000 --> 01:05.000
So I said, fuck, I'm going to
start the show.

01:05.000 --> 01:08.000
And if they show up, they'll
just actually hear the dogs
barking now.

01:08.000 --> 01:11.000
You know that when I start the
show, that's when they come.

01:11.000 --> 01:12.000
Right?

01:12.000 --> 01:13.000
Screw it.

01:13.000 --> 01:14.000
They're going to have to wait
for 40 minutes.

01:14.000 --> 01:17.000
As will you because for the next
40 minutes, the source code is

01:17.000 --> 01:23.000
Chock Full with new podcast, pod
save music and general diarrhea
of the mouth from me.

01:23.000 --> 01:31.000
I've been actually had a great
sleep last night.

01:31.000 --> 01:33.000
We went to bed on time.

01:33.000 --> 01:34.000
Well, it was 11.30.

01:34.000 --> 01:36.000
That was real early for us.

01:36.000 --> 01:38.000
We've been going to bed so late,
of course, to Christine.

01:38.000 --> 01:42.000
That still doesn't start school
until next week, mid next week.

01:42.000 --> 01:45.000
So I was up real early this
morning, up around.

01:45.000 --> 01:49.000
See, I woke at six o'clock and
kind of slumbered around until
seven.

01:49.000 --> 01:52.000
Got up, let the dogs out, let
the cats out and set down.

01:52.000 --> 01:55.000
And watch the sun rise over the
downs.

01:55.000 --> 01:59.000
I've posted a link to a picture
of the downs before on my
weblog.

01:59.000 --> 02:01.000
It's just beautiful.

02:01.000 --> 02:02.000
Just beautiful.

02:02.000 --> 02:05.000
But then, of course, all the
shit sets in, right?

02:05.000 --> 02:09.000
Because wow, you hear that?

02:09.000 --> 02:14.000
I've had this problem with maybe
if I just quit my email
application.

02:14.000 --> 02:18.000
It seems like that is somehow
screwing up the recording
sometimes.

02:18.000 --> 02:22.000
In fact, you should probably
quit all applications when
recording a podcast.

02:22.000 --> 02:24.000
Directed this.

02:24.000 --> 02:26.000
So the day start off great.

02:26.000 --> 02:27.000
It was beautiful.

02:27.000 --> 02:28.000
I was drinking my tea.

02:28.000 --> 02:31.000
I could see the animals,
frolicing in the back.

02:31.000 --> 02:35.000
You know, looking at other
people on the downs through the
gate.

02:35.000 --> 02:41.000
And then, of course, I read the
news that we are now up to a
death toll of almost 70,000
people.

02:41.000 --> 02:45.000
This is, this just boggles my
brain.

02:45.000 --> 02:48.000
It's hard to fit this in 70,000
people.

02:48.000 --> 02:55.000
You know, when we thought that
9-11 was bad or the great
Chicago fire or, you know,

02:55.000 --> 02:59.000
Tiananmen Square or, I mean,
God, it's so hard to imagine.

02:59.000 --> 03:00.000
And you know what's going to
climb?

03:00.000 --> 03:03.000
You know, I'm not sure exactly
how they count this or how they
do that.

03:03.000 --> 03:06.000
But you know what's going to go
up to 100,000.

03:06.000 --> 03:08.000
And I'm dumbfounded.

03:08.000 --> 03:09.000
I don't know what to do.

03:09.000 --> 03:12.000
I mean, of course, immediately I
gave money to Red Cross.

03:12.000 --> 03:14.000
I'm sure that you've probably
done that as well.

03:14.000 --> 03:16.000
It's a reputable organization.

03:16.000 --> 03:18.000
You know that your money is
going to be spent well.

03:18.000 --> 03:21.000
But it's got to be a drop in the
fucking bucket.

03:21.000 --> 03:24.000
And how many people are
affected?

03:24.000 --> 03:29.000
You know, how many people will
you know that lost someone in
this great tragedy?

03:29.000 --> 03:32.000
I bet you it's going to be more
than you can imagine.

03:32.000 --> 03:37.000
I got an email from Lou Josephs,
who's been a weblogger for quite
a while.

03:37.000 --> 03:39.000
He's also a broadcast guy.

03:39.000 --> 03:42.000
I think he still lives in DC or
in the Virginia area.

03:42.000 --> 03:46.000
He says, Jonathan, I have a
great friend on the island.

03:46.000 --> 03:48.000
I don't know which island that.

03:48.000 --> 03:49.000
A Sri Lanka.

03:49.000 --> 03:50.000
Sorry.

03:50.000 --> 03:52.000
He's also a ham radio operator.

03:52.000 --> 03:53.000
Old technology.

03:53.000 --> 03:57.000
But it works when the podcast
doesn't details on his blog and
on Mark's blog.

03:57.000 --> 04:00.000
So they've actually had some
contact.

04:00.000 --> 04:05.000
And I've obviously put a link in
to, to lose weblog from the
production show notes.

04:05.000 --> 04:07.000
Something about the show notes.

04:07.000 --> 04:10.000
If you don't mind me just
skipping over the 70,000 dead.

04:10.000 --> 04:11.000
Jesus Christ.

04:11.000 --> 04:13.000
I don't know what to do yet.

04:13.000 --> 04:16.000
Something about the show notes
briefly though.

04:16.000 --> 04:17.000
I was talking to Dave last
night.

04:17.000 --> 04:20.000
And we've had some great
conversations in the past couple
days.

04:20.000 --> 04:22.000
It's almost every single day and
he'll call up.

04:22.000 --> 04:25.000
You know, I kind of know where
he is because I try to follow
along with scripting news.

04:25.000 --> 04:30.000
In fact, I've learned that it's
best to make sure I've read
scripting news before I talk to
him.

04:30.000 --> 04:33.000
Because, you know, he presumes
sometimes that I've read that.

04:33.000 --> 04:35.000
And vice versa by the way.

04:35.000 --> 04:37.000
Come on in.

04:37.000 --> 04:38.000
Come on in.

04:38.000 --> 04:39.000
They're here.

04:39.000 --> 04:40.000
No.

04:40.000 --> 04:41.000
Oh.

04:41.000 --> 04:42.000
I'm doing my podcast.

04:42.000 --> 04:44.000
I thought they were here.

04:44.000 --> 04:45.000
Come in.

04:45.000 --> 04:46.000
Come in.

04:46.000 --> 04:47.000
What?

04:47.000 --> 04:48.000
You just had your coffee, right?

04:48.000 --> 04:50.000
Oh, but are you offering me
another one?

04:50.000 --> 04:51.000
Yes.

04:51.000 --> 04:52.000
And I have chocolate sponge
cake.

04:52.000 --> 04:55.000
And I have an offer of...

04:55.000 --> 04:57.000
What do you have on sale today,
Pat?

04:57.000 --> 04:58.000
Yeah.

04:58.000 --> 04:59.000
Yeah.

04:59.000 --> 05:01.000
Chocolate sponge cake and
cheesecake.

05:01.000 --> 05:03.000
Strawberry cheesecake.

05:03.000 --> 05:06.000
Oh, you don't want to leave the
cheesecake whole until the
guests come.

05:06.000 --> 05:08.000
We first going to taste it.

05:08.000 --> 05:09.000
Okay.

05:09.000 --> 05:10.000
Could you please bring me some
cheesecake?

05:10.000 --> 05:11.000
How it is.

05:11.000 --> 05:12.000
Why don't you?

05:12.000 --> 05:13.000
Yeah.

05:13.000 --> 05:14.000
We'll check it to see if it's
good.

05:14.000 --> 05:15.000
I'd love some cheesecake.

05:15.000 --> 05:16.000
It's a chocolate cake.

05:16.000 --> 05:17.000
It's wonderful.

05:17.000 --> 05:18.000
Now the cheesecake will be gone.

05:18.000 --> 05:19.000
Yeah.

05:19.000 --> 05:20.000
And I'd love...

05:20.000 --> 05:21.000
Yeah, thank you.

05:21.000 --> 05:22.000
What is this?

05:22.000 --> 05:23.000
What?

05:23.000 --> 05:24.000
This is lovely service.

05:24.000 --> 05:25.000
Is this always here in the
cottage?

05:25.000 --> 05:26.000
Yes.

05:26.000 --> 05:27.000
Really?

05:27.000 --> 05:28.000
What do I have to do for that?

05:28.000 --> 05:29.000
You know?

05:29.000 --> 05:30.000
No.

05:30.000 --> 05:31.000
No.

05:31.000 --> 05:32.000
Oh, boy.

05:32.000 --> 05:33.000
Yeah.

05:33.000 --> 05:36.000
I was just talking about the
70,000 people.

05:36.000 --> 05:37.000
Oh, yeah.

05:37.000 --> 05:40.000
The fuck are we going to do
about this shit?

05:40.000 --> 05:42.000
And why?

05:42.000 --> 05:43.000
Why?

05:43.000 --> 05:44.000
Okay.

05:44.000 --> 05:45.000
Thanks.

05:45.000 --> 05:46.000
I don't deserve it.

05:46.000 --> 05:47.000
No, of course I don't deserve
that.

05:47.000 --> 05:48.000
The fuck is that?

05:48.000 --> 05:49.000
It's horrible.

05:49.000 --> 05:50.000
Who's God?

05:50.000 --> 05:52.000
Can you close the door, huh?

05:52.000 --> 05:53.000
Thanks.

05:53.000 --> 05:54.000
Who's God?

05:54.000 --> 05:55.000
Did that?

05:55.000 --> 05:56.000
That's what I'd like.

05:56.000 --> 05:58.000
I'd like George Bush to stand up
and say...

05:58.000 --> 06:00.000
This was not our God who did
this.

06:00.000 --> 06:01.000
I'd like the Buddhists to stand
up and say...

06:01.000 --> 06:02.000
This is not our God.

06:02.000 --> 06:04.000
Or maybe some God will take
responsibility for it.

06:04.000 --> 06:05.000
Please.

06:05.000 --> 06:07.000
And the God casters, which, you
know, I have great respect for
the God casters, pod casters,
who

06:07.000 --> 06:08.000
are doing religious podcasts.

06:08.000 --> 06:12.000
We have quite a bit of them in
the iPodod.org directory.

06:12.000 --> 06:14.000
Where's the explanations?

06:14.000 --> 06:16.000
Where's Reverend Tim and tell me
why?

06:16.000 --> 06:17.000
Why, why, why?

06:17.000 --> 06:18.000
I'd like to know why.

06:18.000 --> 06:21.000
If there ever was a time for
religion,

06:21.000 --> 06:34.000
to make a statement, good or
bad, this is the time.

06:34.000 --> 06:35.000
This is the time.

06:35.000 --> 06:36.000
I wonder if that's going to
happen.

06:36.000 --> 06:37.000
Hold on.

06:37.000 --> 06:39.000
Let me just reset my audio
hijack pro here.

06:39.000 --> 06:42.000
I told you this is such a weird
problem to have this latency.

06:42.000 --> 06:44.000
And everyone has it one way or
the other.

06:44.000 --> 06:47.000
If you're doing digital
broadcasts and you've got
stuff...

06:47.000 --> 06:49.000
Chained together, you're going
to run into that.

06:49.000 --> 06:52.000
So, I hope you hook up with the
guys from...

06:52.000 --> 06:54.000
What is it, amoeba?

06:54.000 --> 06:55.000
Rogue amoeba software?

06:55.000 --> 06:57.000
Wait, who makes audio hijack
pro?

06:57.000 --> 07:00.000
Is that Rogue amoeba?

07:00.000 --> 07:01.000
Yeah.

07:01.000 --> 07:02.000
Rogue amoeba.

07:02.000 --> 07:03.000
Okay.

07:03.000 --> 07:04.000
Anyway.

07:04.000 --> 07:05.000
So, I'm just dumbfounded.

07:05.000 --> 07:06.000
I don't know what to say.

07:06.000 --> 07:07.000
I really don't.

07:07.000 --> 07:10.000
I wish there was something that
podcasting could do to...

07:10.000 --> 07:12.000
To make it better.

07:12.000 --> 07:15.000
To make the hurt go away, to
help these people.

07:15.000 --> 07:16.000
I don't think there is.

07:16.000 --> 07:21.000
I think the easiest, simplest
form that we've come up with...

07:21.000 --> 07:24.000
Of ways to help people is to
send money.

07:24.000 --> 07:27.000
And...

07:27.000 --> 07:31.000
You know, I don't think that an
early warning system putting
that in...

07:31.000 --> 07:35.000
And by the way, you know, this
could happen in the North
Atlantic.

07:35.000 --> 07:36.000
This could happen in the
Pacific.

07:36.000 --> 07:38.000
It could happen in the North
Sea.

07:38.000 --> 07:41.000
You know, what's the Star Wars
plan for that?

07:41.000 --> 07:44.000
You know, and will we have
enough money to implement that?

07:44.000 --> 07:46.000
I say we, because...

07:46.000 --> 07:50.000
I figure I'm pretty much living
on American soil in the UK.

07:50.000 --> 07:52.000
By the way, I've noticed that...

07:52.000 --> 07:55.000
People in the UK actually like
youngs.

07:55.000 --> 07:56.000
It's changed a little bit.

07:56.000 --> 07:59.000
I think in the past that used to
be...

07:59.000 --> 08:01.000
There were some apprehension.

08:01.000 --> 08:02.000
I think that there's...

08:02.000 --> 08:03.000
I don't know what it is.

08:03.000 --> 08:04.000
I don't know.

08:04.000 --> 08:06.000
Maybe it's just American culture
has steeped in.

08:06.000 --> 08:07.000
Or maybe we've come to terms.

08:07.000 --> 08:10.000
Or maybe because we're fighting
side by side in Iraq.

08:10.000 --> 08:11.000
I don't know.

08:11.000 --> 08:12.000
I don't know what it is.

08:13.000 --> 08:14.000
But...

08:14.000 --> 08:16.000
I feel very welcome here in the
United Kingdom.

08:16.000 --> 08:17.000
I seriously...

08:17.000 --> 08:18.000
I really, really do.

08:18.000 --> 08:22.000
And it's so nice to have so many
people sending me free little
emails.

08:22.000 --> 08:26.000
You know, about the corkiness of
the UK, helping me out with
learning the culture.

08:26.000 --> 08:27.000
Man, it's...

08:27.000 --> 08:28.000
It's really...

08:28.000 --> 08:29.000
It's a great thing.

08:29.000 --> 08:30.000
It's appreciated.

08:30.000 --> 08:31.000
Right.

08:31.000 --> 08:32.000
Your source code.

08:32.000 --> 08:33.000
Always looking at what's going
on.

08:33.000 --> 08:35.000
Where users and developers party
together.

08:35.000 --> 08:36.000
One of our big users...

08:36.000 --> 08:38.000
Are the lascivious bitties.

08:38.000 --> 08:41.000
I got a beautiful email from
Leon from the bitties.

08:41.000 --> 08:43.000
I thought I'd send you a message
of solidarity.

08:43.000 --> 08:45.000
On vacation for Christmas, first
in Omaha,

08:45.000 --> 08:46.000
then in Brooksville, Florida.

08:46.000 --> 08:49.000
In Omaha, I had a kinko's with
Timo Wawireless,

08:49.000 --> 08:52.000
but here in Brooksville, no
rental car.

08:52.000 --> 08:55.000
No wireless opportunity and only
dial up.

08:55.000 --> 08:56.000
Thirsty for podcasts.

08:56.000 --> 08:59.000
Can't wait to get home to hear
what you've been talking about
over the holidays.

08:59.000 --> 09:02.000
Just a message of solidarity, at
least we have cable and pound
cake.

09:02.000 --> 09:03.000
Be well.

09:03.000 --> 09:04.000
Leon, thank you very much, Leon.

09:04.000 --> 09:06.000
We got cheesecake here.

09:06.000 --> 09:09.000
And actually, I've been learning
to live.

09:09.000 --> 09:14.000
This Wi-Fi thing is getting us
much closer to ubiquity of
broadband.

09:14.000 --> 09:18.000
Because yesterday, you know,
that I rushed off after I
finished the source code

09:18.000 --> 09:21.000
to go pick up Christina's friend
at the airport.

09:21.000 --> 09:25.000
And I just grabbed the laptop
with me, had it encoding on the
back seat.

09:25.000 --> 09:27.000
We'll talk about that in a
second.

09:27.000 --> 09:31.000
And when I got to the airport, I
had to go to the departures
level

09:31.000 --> 09:34.000
because there was no Wi-Fi
available on the arrivals level.

09:34.000 --> 09:35.000
Go figure.

09:35.000 --> 09:38.000
That's where everybody is
sitting and waiting the most,
you know,

09:38.000 --> 09:39.000
beautiful opportunity.

09:39.000 --> 09:45.000
And was able to just hop right
onto the, onto the T-Mobile
wireless.

09:45.000 --> 09:47.000
In fact, it's a, I should have
taken a picture of it.

09:47.000 --> 09:51.000
It's a huge sign at Heathrow, a
terminal 1, 2 and 3.

09:51.000 --> 09:56.000
That says, you know, T-Mobile,
the world's largest W-Lan
network,

09:56.000 --> 09:59.000
which is a big statement to
make, but you know what?

09:59.000 --> 10:00.000
They are out there.

10:00.000 --> 10:02.000
And it's getting to the point.

10:02.000 --> 10:04.000
Just look at what Dave, what
Dave Winner is witnessing.

10:04.000 --> 10:06.000
He bought a truck stop.

10:07.000 --> 10:10.000
Wireless subscription.

10:10.000 --> 10:11.000
This is great.

10:11.000 --> 10:14.000
And he says that only in a
couple of months since the last
time he drove coast to coast

10:14.000 --> 10:19.000
has he seen, you know, the
ubiquity really, really pop up.

10:19.000 --> 10:22.000
There's almost, you can get a
Wi-Fi almost anywhere.

10:22.000 --> 10:24.000
So getting pretty damn good.

10:24.000 --> 10:26.000
And of course, because you can
get Wi-Fi almost anywhere,

10:26.000 --> 10:29.000
you can get some excellent
dropcated since this time.

10:29.000 --> 10:31.000
It's a hit.

10:31.000 --> 10:33.000
Remember this one.

10:34.000 --> 10:37.000
There's a University of
Michigan, I believe.

10:37.000 --> 10:39.000
There's a University of
Michigan, I believe.

10:43.000 --> 10:45.000
You remember I'd asked for some
hits?

10:51.000 --> 10:54.000
Remember I'd asked for some
hits.

10:56.250 --> 11:33.000
[ Music ]

11:33.000 --> 11:44.720
That was the, oh shit, I messed
up the last bit home on shit.

11:44.720 --> 11:48.000
That was the widest version of
Slupia, I've ever heard of.

11:48.000 --> 11:50.000
Oh, this very squinger.

11:50.000 --> 11:51.000
It's very square.

11:51.000 --> 11:53.000
Patricia just walked back in
where the great announcement
here.

11:53.000 --> 11:54.000
No, no, no.

11:54.000 --> 11:57.000
I was just thinking, I was
downstairs, the whole house is
nice.

11:57.000 --> 11:58.000
I cleaned up everything.

11:58.000 --> 11:59.000
All right.

11:59.000 --> 12:03.000
Because we wanted to show the
new cottage and the house smells
nice.

12:03.000 --> 12:06.000
I have candles on and you know,
a little bit of papery here.

12:06.000 --> 12:07.000
Oh, curry, everybody.

12:07.000 --> 12:08.000
And you know what?

12:08.000 --> 12:10.000
Because we're ready for them.

12:10.000 --> 12:11.000
Yeah.

12:11.000 --> 12:14.000
And always, and I know people
who have cats know this.

12:14.000 --> 12:15.000
Mm-hmm.

12:15.000 --> 12:17.000
They go to the kitty's house.

12:17.000 --> 12:19.000
Just before you guess.

12:19.000 --> 12:20.000
They pooped.

12:20.000 --> 12:21.000
Yeah.

12:21.000 --> 12:22.000
They go on the kitty's box.

12:22.000 --> 12:23.000
Because they don't like the
smell.

12:23.000 --> 12:24.000
They don't like our smell.

12:24.000 --> 12:25.000
They don't like papery.

12:25.000 --> 12:26.000
They don't like all your
candles.

12:26.000 --> 12:28.000
They have their own papery.

12:29.000 --> 12:30.000
All right.

12:30.000 --> 12:31.000
Isn't it always the same?

12:31.000 --> 12:32.000
Han, you know what?

12:32.000 --> 12:33.000
Yeah.

12:33.000 --> 12:36.000
You can come in here anytime to
talk about poop.

12:36.000 --> 12:37.000
I want you to know that.

12:37.000 --> 12:38.000
I'm so happy.

12:38.000 --> 12:41.000
Anything poop related is good in
my book.

12:41.000 --> 12:42.000
I'm a vegetable.

12:42.000 --> 12:43.000
Okay.

12:43.000 --> 12:44.000
Love you, Han.

12:44.000 --> 12:45.000
Let me know when they're here.

12:45.000 --> 12:46.000
Yeah.

12:46.000 --> 12:47.000
Okay.

12:47.000 --> 12:49.000
Oh, lovely.

12:49.000 --> 12:53.000
Thank you very much by the way
for the wonderful drum cadence.

12:53.000 --> 12:54.000
More hits, more hits, please.

12:54.000 --> 12:55.000
More hits.

12:56.000 --> 13:06.000
Yesterday, I mentioned that I
thought that I had solved the
entire encoding issue of not
being able to play this show on
certain palm devices.

13:06.000 --> 13:11.000
And I disabled the filter
selection on the lame brain MP3
encoder.

13:11.000 --> 13:16.000
If you don't know what I'm
talking about, skip ahead one
minute or listen to yesterday's
podcast.

13:16.000 --> 13:18.000
So I set it now.

13:18.000 --> 13:23.000
I deselected all of the filters
and set it at 44.1 kilohertz.

13:23.000 --> 13:26.000
And I got a lot of comments.

13:26.000 --> 13:31.000
Mainly people saying, please
change it back to whatever it
was because we could hear all
this warmably noise.

13:31.000 --> 13:36.000
Because I guess lame brain does
have a lot of really cool
filters in there that that
really processes the sound.

13:36.000 --> 13:37.000
So today I've tried it
differently.

13:37.000 --> 13:45.000
I'm setting it to 22.050, which
should that's a sample rate for
the audio, which should work on
the palms.

13:45.000 --> 13:48.000
And it should also sound good.

13:48.000 --> 13:50.000
Because I've left the filters
in.

13:50.000 --> 13:53.000
Well, let me know because I
agree yesterday sounded really
warbly.

13:53.000 --> 13:58.000
And yeah, it wasn't, it wasn't
quite what I was looking for.

13:58.000 --> 13:59.000
New podcast.

13:59.000 --> 14:07.000
Finally, I'm able to create a
book category on ipod.org
because we have the brand new
bound cast.

14:07.000 --> 14:11.000
Fitting a new revolutionary
medium like podcasting.

14:11.000 --> 14:16.000
We'd like our first book to be
about a revolution in itself.

14:17.000 --> 14:26.000
So our first book is Revolution
in the Valley, which is Andy
Hertzfeld's book about the
development of the Macintosh.

14:26.000 --> 14:30.000
From all the way from when he
was first hired at Apple.

14:30.000 --> 14:32.000
Through the development of
Macintosh itself.

14:32.000 --> 14:37.000
And then all the way into the
Scully crew of that ended John's
first term.

14:37.000 --> 14:39.000
And it's a great start-up story.

14:40.000 --> 14:43.000
It's got lots of light hours and
pizza by the ton.

14:43.000 --> 14:47.000
And you know, strange characters
and weird happenings and things
like that.

14:47.000 --> 14:50.000
And it's organized into a
hundred short stories.

14:50.000 --> 14:54.000
And they're all well-written and
quick to read.

14:54.000 --> 14:57.000
I read the whole book, kind of
covered a cover in about three
hours.

14:57.000 --> 15:00.000
You know, that's why you could
freak with the sort of stuff.

15:00.000 --> 15:01.000
I'd love this story.

15:01.000 --> 15:08.000
The development of the Macintosh
for me is the ultimate, you
know, expression of passion.

15:08.000 --> 15:12.000
Where the people who worked on
it were all just brilliant.

15:12.000 --> 15:15.000
And it's kind of a story that
inspired my whole career.

15:15.000 --> 15:21.000
And I think that applies for a
lot of us.

15:21.000 --> 15:28.000
What's interesting, I think,
about the book, is that it shows
that the development wasn't
anything unusual.

15:28.000 --> 15:34.000
You think about how
Revolutionary the outcome
wasn't, you think, wow, you
know, to be involved in that,

15:34.000 --> 15:36.000
was just been insane.

15:36.000 --> 15:49.000
But because the model of the
development with the late hours
and that dot-com insanity has
been reused so many times,

15:49.000 --> 15:53.000
a lot of what they went through
is very similar to what we went
through today.

15:53.000 --> 15:54.000
And it's inspiring in a way.

15:54.000 --> 16:01.000
It's inspiring to see that at
the end, all of that, you can do
something revolutionary and
change the world.

16:01.000 --> 16:08.000
And this was one of the very
first times when that happened
in the computer industry.

16:08.000 --> 16:13.000
And Andy's really captured that
feel in this book.

16:13.000 --> 16:17.000
So for me, this is a five out of
five star book, of course.

16:17.000 --> 16:23.000
And I think that if you're going
to return some books or return
some gifts,

16:23.000 --> 16:30.000
that you got, you might want to
go and take this book out as an
exchange.

16:31.000 --> 16:33.000
So there you have it, our first
book review.

16:33.000 --> 16:38.000
Five out of five stars for Andy
Hertzfeld's Revolution in the
Valley.

16:38.000 --> 16:40.000
Oh, dude, most excellent.

16:40.000 --> 16:42.000
The bound cast, a little bit
soft on the audio there.

16:42.000 --> 16:44.000
I tried to crank it up as much
as possible.

16:44.000 --> 16:45.000
Great mic sound.

16:45.000 --> 16:50.000
And God, I love having a book
review that lasts two minutes
and 30 seconds.

16:50.000 --> 16:51.000
That is perfect.

16:51.000 --> 16:55.000
And I guarantee you that
eventually will sell some books.

16:56.000 --> 16:58.000
And I bought it out or
directory.

16:58.000 --> 17:01.000
You can go to the books node
brand new node.

17:01.000 --> 17:03.000
And just select that.

17:03.000 --> 17:05.000
I guarantee you will not regret
it.

17:05.000 --> 17:06.000
Hello.

17:06.000 --> 17:07.000
Hi, Mr. Curry.

17:07.000 --> 17:09.000
Well, hold on.

17:09.000 --> 17:11.000
Let's agree on one thing,
everybody.

17:11.000 --> 17:12.000
Let's agree.

17:12.000 --> 17:14.000
We don't call me Mr. Curry.

17:14.000 --> 17:18.000
Um, that makes me feel the 40
years I am.

17:18.000 --> 17:19.000
Vote podcasting.

17:19.000 --> 17:21.000
I just got my 40 gig about.

17:21.000 --> 17:24.000
I pod for my 21st birthday on
the 9th of December.

17:24.000 --> 17:25.000
Okay.

17:25.000 --> 17:26.000
Now I see why you're calling me
Mr. Curry.

17:26.000 --> 17:27.000
21.

17:27.000 --> 17:28.000
Okay.

17:28.000 --> 17:31.000
Higher time from then until
about the 20th getting my
library organized.

17:31.000 --> 17:33.000
Then I heard about podcasts.

17:33.000 --> 17:34.000
Sorry.

17:34.000 --> 17:38.000
I was a little slow on the news,
but once I did get iPodter, I
took to it like a fake.

17:38.000 --> 17:40.000
And let me tell you something
about the iPods.

17:40.000 --> 17:43.000
I bought an iPod mini for
Christina.

17:43.000 --> 17:48.000
And configuring these things on
Windows is not snap, you know,
snap crackle pop easy

17:48.000 --> 17:49.000
123.

17:49.000 --> 17:50.000
No way.

17:50.000 --> 17:52.000
You know, it's got a reformat
itself.

17:52.000 --> 17:57.000
You've got to actually it has to
be a little bit charged before
you can connect it.

17:57.000 --> 18:04.000
And then you have to disconnect
it from from the install
process, plug it into the
firewire

18:04.000 --> 18:11.000
plug that plugs into the wall
outlet or to the adapter so that
it can reboot its firmware.

18:11.000 --> 18:13.000
It's a fucking horrible process.

18:13.000 --> 18:17.000
And in the Netherlands, and I
have received multiple calls
about this.

18:17.000 --> 18:20.000
There is no Dutch user guide.

18:20.000 --> 18:22.000
You don't even give you a
fucking English user guide.

18:22.000 --> 18:27.000
Now, they're dumping these iPod
mini from either Germany and or
France because that's the only
two

18:27.000 --> 18:31.000
user guides user manuals that it
comes with is with a French one
and a German one.

18:31.000 --> 18:33.000
And it's complicated.

18:33.000 --> 18:37.000
You know, if you don't have a
Mac, we just plug it in and the
shit works.

18:37.000 --> 18:39.000
You've got to figure it out by
yourself.

18:39.000 --> 18:43.000
And if there's no Dutch user
manual or even an English one
for that matter,

18:43.000 --> 18:46.000
sure, you can download it from
Apple.com.

18:46.000 --> 18:47.000
Sure.

18:47.000 --> 18:48.000
That's not the point.

18:48.000 --> 18:50.000
Not when you pay that kind of
money for an iPod mini.

18:50.000 --> 18:54.000
I've been helping so many people
doing a basic phone support
trying to help them

18:54.000 --> 18:56.000
rig up their iPod mini.

18:56.000 --> 18:57.000
It's wacky.

18:57.000 --> 19:00.000
It's not an easy install
process.

19:00.000 --> 19:03.000
In fact, it reminded me a lot of
the first iPodders.

19:03.000 --> 19:05.000
Jesus Christ is so hard.

19:05.000 --> 19:11.000
So, of course, what we'd want in
the future would be obviously to
have the iPod

19:11.000 --> 19:13.000
or built into the iPod.

19:13.000 --> 19:15.000
And do I have that list?

19:15.000 --> 19:17.000
I was going to talk about that
today, wasn't I?

19:17.000 --> 19:20.000
About, yeah, I'm going to talk
about iPodzilla, of course.

19:20.000 --> 19:25.000
I have your show, Dawn and Drew
Show, Leo LePortz, Pack Report,
really learned Spanish

19:25.000 --> 19:26.000
and a whole bunch of others.

19:26.000 --> 19:29.000
So, I'm always listening to the
podcast.

19:29.000 --> 19:31.000
Either way, I really want to
start my own.

19:31.000 --> 19:36.000
I'm kind of used to the blog
thing because I do a mobile blog
on textamerica.com

19:36.000 --> 19:39.000
and I have the link in my email.

19:39.000 --> 19:41.000
But sorry to bore you with the
introduction.

19:41.000 --> 19:43.000
I don't know how to explain
where I'm coming from.

19:43.000 --> 19:47.000
Basically, I want some pointers
from, you know,

19:47.000 --> 19:50.000
the father of podcasts and
passmaskers.

19:50.000 --> 19:53.000
Okay, if you go to iPod.org,

19:53.000 --> 19:54.000
hold on a second.

19:54.000 --> 19:56.000
I'm getting that frickin' delay
again.

19:56.000 --> 19:58.000
If you go to iPod.org in the
directory,

19:58.000 --> 20:00.000
there's a documentation node.

20:00.000 --> 20:02.000
You can find all the links you
need right there.

20:02.000 --> 20:04.000
It really is the resource for,

20:04.000 --> 20:07.000
what they've put on that, the
resource for the iPod platform.

20:07.000 --> 20:10.000
By the way, they've also father
of,

20:10.000 --> 20:13.000
the podcast, please.

20:13.000 --> 20:16.000
The internet.

20:16.000 --> 20:18.000
Don Maselli.

20:18.000 --> 20:19.000
Mother of the internet.

20:19.000 --> 20:20.000
Could please.

20:20.000 --> 20:22.000
On how I can get started.

20:22.000 --> 20:23.000
Okay, no problem at all.

20:23.000 --> 20:24.000
Just go to iPod.org.

20:24.000 --> 20:26.000
That's where all the resources
are that you need.

20:26.000 --> 20:28.000
I guarantee that's exactly where
you're going to find it.

20:28.000 --> 20:31.000
Glad to see, by the way, that
Dave got his audio fixed.

20:31.000 --> 20:35.000
That crapping out was apparently
caused by,

20:36.000 --> 20:39.000
how shoot, what was that thing
that automatically

20:39.000 --> 20:41.000
records radio broadcast for him?

20:41.000 --> 20:45.000
That was apparently what was
causing all the hiccups

20:45.000 --> 20:48.000
in his recordings.

20:48.000 --> 20:50.000
So I'm glad he got that fixed.

20:50.000 --> 20:53.000
And he put up a test podcast.

20:53.000 --> 20:55.000
Hopefully we'll get some more
from the road

20:55.000 --> 20:57.000
from him today or tomorrow.

20:57.000 --> 20:59.000
My God, what are we 20 minutes
in this?

20:59.000 --> 21:01.000
I have no idea how I'm going to
finish the entire show today.

21:01.000 --> 21:02.000
Let's see.

21:02.000 --> 21:04.000
We have another first recording
here.

21:05.000 --> 21:08.000
You know, Adam, JT here, soon to
be podcaster.

21:08.000 --> 21:11.000
Just trying to test out my rig
here and send you a little note.

21:11.000 --> 21:13.000
I heard that Carlin thing you
played the other day

21:13.000 --> 21:15.000
and just laughing hysterically.

21:15.000 --> 21:17.000
But just wanted to voice a
little support.

21:17.000 --> 21:20.000
Let you know you're doing a
fantastic job pushing this.

21:20.000 --> 21:23.000
And I buy into your vision
completely.

21:23.000 --> 21:26.000
In fact, I plan on starting two
podcasts.

21:26.000 --> 21:30.000
One kind of dedicated towards
technology for the business
user.

21:30.000 --> 21:32.000
And that's kind of like my
business slant, so to speak.

21:32.000 --> 21:37.000
And second one being geared
towards frankly beer and wine.

21:37.000 --> 21:38.000
Yeah.

21:38.000 --> 21:39.000
All right, screw the technology.

21:39.000 --> 21:42.000
All right, finally another beer
podcast beer and wine.

21:42.000 --> 21:45.000
Got a little bit lesser
expensive wines for the masses.

21:45.000 --> 21:48.000
And doing a bit of beer brewing
and sharing those experiences
online.

21:48.000 --> 21:49.000
It's unbelievable.

21:49.000 --> 21:51.000
There are at least four beer
podcasts.

21:51.000 --> 21:53.000
This is big, big stuff.

21:53.000 --> 21:55.000
This, this almost as big as
religion.

21:55.000 --> 21:57.000
I'm telling you, large circles
of friends and all that.

21:57.000 --> 22:00.000
And they're all totally hyped
about what's going on with
podcasting.

22:00.000 --> 22:02.000
So keep up the great work.

22:02.000 --> 22:03.000
I won't keep this short.

22:03.000 --> 22:05.000
So you won't have all kinds of
bad download times.

22:05.000 --> 22:13.000
You know what's nice about about
the bandwidth when you send
something through email.

22:13.000 --> 22:17.000
Excuse me, as long as I don't
have my mailbox full up, fill
up.

22:17.000 --> 22:19.000
Over night, everything comes in.

22:19.000 --> 22:23.000
If you send it the end of the
day in the States,

22:23.000 --> 22:24.000
I'm going to have it the next
morning.

22:24.000 --> 22:25.000
It'll be already down.

22:25.000 --> 22:27.000
It's kind of like an email
iPodder.

22:27.000 --> 22:29.000
It's really, it's quite
incredible.

22:29.000 --> 22:33.000
So anyway, great can't wait to
see you come along with with yet
another beer podcast.

22:33.000 --> 22:36.000
I love beer podcast as much as I
love coffee.

22:36.000 --> 22:39.000
I was talking about the sense
sale the other day.

22:39.000 --> 22:42.000
Wondering if that was for sale
in the States.

22:42.000 --> 22:43.000
A couple of comments.

22:43.000 --> 22:46.000
Of course, all of these listed
on the on the show notes.

22:46.000 --> 22:47.000
From Jennifer.

22:47.000 --> 22:49.000
A sense sale machine is on sale
in the States.

22:49.000 --> 22:52.000
In fact, she says, my mom got me
one for Christmas.

22:52.000 --> 22:53.000
Love it, love it, love it.

22:53.000 --> 22:57.000
And Joan sent me an email, which
was actually almost even cooler.

22:57.000 --> 22:59.000
She says it Christmas, my
parents came over.

22:59.000 --> 23:02.000
A lot of talk about geeky and
geek and tech stuff.

23:02.000 --> 23:06.000
They talk about her internet
business.

23:06.000 --> 23:08.000
And she says, check this out.

23:08.000 --> 23:14.000
My dad happens to be the
developer of the electronics and
processing unit of the sense
sale.

23:14.000 --> 23:16.000
And he retired just a couple of
weeks ago.

23:16.000 --> 23:24.000
And was actually received a
highly tweaked sense sale
completely made of aluminium.

23:25.000 --> 23:28.000
We need a picture of that, Joan.

23:28.000 --> 23:31.000
I want to see the the pimped out
sense sale machine.

23:31.000 --> 23:35.000
And by the way, I've learned
here in the UK it is aluminium.

23:35.000 --> 23:39.000
Not aluminum, as we say in the
States, aluminium.

23:39.000 --> 23:40.000
I've been corrected on my.

23:40.000 --> 23:42.000
In fact, the English are great
at correcting.

23:42.000 --> 23:45.000
Well, at correcting English.

23:45.000 --> 23:51.000
Another excellent email here
from Jim Davis, who says that he
just received his February 5th

23:51.000 --> 23:52.000
Mac addict.

23:52.000 --> 23:53.000
It's the magazine.

23:53.000 --> 23:56.000
It has in there a nine step
procedure.

23:56.000 --> 23:57.000
I didn't know it was nine steps.

23:57.000 --> 23:59.000
I think it could be shorter than
that.

23:59.000 --> 24:01.000
A nine step procedure on
podcasting.

24:01.000 --> 24:05.000
And the disk, they always send a
companion disk has all the
software that you need to start

24:05.000 --> 24:06.000
to podcast.

24:06.000 --> 24:09.000
So of course, I haven't seen
this yet the Mac addict.

24:09.000 --> 24:12.000
I will pick up a copy as soon as
I can get my hands on it.

24:12.000 --> 24:15.000
So in there is BB edit.

24:15.000 --> 24:16.000
I'm not sure.

24:16.000 --> 24:18.000
Well, I guess BB edit too.

24:18.000 --> 24:19.000
Maybe to create your RSS file.

24:19.000 --> 24:24.000
Does BB edit 8.0.2 have a
template for RSS files?

24:24.000 --> 24:25.000
That's probably it.

24:25.000 --> 24:26.000
I'll have to look.

24:26.000 --> 24:29.000
I potter X2.2, excellent guys.

24:29.000 --> 24:32.000
Line in, which is from Rogumi,
this software.

24:32.000 --> 24:41.000
It's a free way to basically get
the mic going on your computer,
on your Mac and record it.

24:41.000 --> 24:46.000
Soundflower and transmit, which
is I think an FTP client.

24:46.000 --> 24:48.000
I don't know if you necessarily
need that.

24:48.000 --> 24:52.000
I mean, basically you can use
some blog software and it will
get you to the same place.

24:52.000 --> 24:56.000
But kudos to the iPod or X guys
for getting that kind of
distribution.

24:56.000 --> 24:58.000
That's freaking awesome.

24:58.000 --> 25:02.000
So great to see podcasting being
propagated once again.

25:02.000 --> 25:10.000
And speaking of Mac, Phil Terone
says that he's been using a
media center PC 2005.

25:10.000 --> 25:15.000
And an Xbox media center
extender kind of as an iPodter.

25:15.000 --> 25:18.000
And he's posted a link about it
on in gadget.com.

25:18.000 --> 25:21.000
So I put that link in the show
notes as well for you to check
out if you're interested.

25:21.000 --> 25:25.000
Something about the show notes
that Dave and I discussed in our
talk yesterday.

25:25.000 --> 25:28.000
I said, how many times do you
check out the production show
notes?

25:28.000 --> 25:30.000
He says zero, never checked him
ever.

25:30.000 --> 25:31.000
So why is that?

25:31.000 --> 25:36.000
He says well because if I wanted
to check the notes, then I would
have to be there at that moment.

25:36.000 --> 25:42.000
So I would be talking about
something he should be able to
pick up the iPod and somehow get
to that.

25:42.000 --> 25:45.000
Which I think we're totally be a
function of OPML.

25:45.000 --> 25:48.000
But then he said something that
kind of scared me.

25:48.000 --> 25:53.000
Because he says, I don't know
where, well, he was, of course
he knows where the show notes
live.

25:53.000 --> 25:57.000
But he says, you know, when I do
my aggregator scan, the show
notes don't pop up.

25:57.000 --> 26:08.000
He says, what he would want and
this is what kind of freaking
out is a way to scan the show
notes to make a decision on
whether he wants to listen to
the show or not.

26:09.000 --> 26:14.000
This is a very frightening thing
for a broadcast or a podcaster
for that matter.

26:14.000 --> 26:16.000
Makes no difference for any
communicator.

26:16.000 --> 26:21.000
Because it's like judging a book
by its cover, which means that
not only do I have to now make a
great podcast,

26:21.000 --> 26:25.000
but I have to make a great show
notes as well in order to make
sure that people check it out.

26:25.000 --> 26:28.000
So actually, I've decided, I
don't want people checking out
my show notes.

26:28.000 --> 26:30.000
I want them to listen to the
podcast.

26:30.000 --> 26:35.000
The podcast will have a theme,
will have a title, maybe one or
two notes in the ID3 tags.

26:36.000 --> 26:43.000
Of course, you should be able to
get to the show notes to go back
and check that if you really
need something like the next
song I'm going to play.

26:43.000 --> 26:46.000
You want some information on
Barry Coral.

26:46.000 --> 26:48.000
You need to figure out where to
get it.

26:48.000 --> 26:52.000
But I don't like this idea of
checking it before the podcast.

26:52.000 --> 26:54.000
In fact, that freaks me out.

26:54.000 --> 26:58.000
And I know because it's like the
TV guide.

26:58.000 --> 27:02.000
If you knew it was on the news,
of course you know what's going
to be on the news.

27:02.000 --> 27:07.000
But if you really knew it's
going to be on the news and they
promoted that and they gave you
the whole rundown,

27:07.000 --> 27:13.000
not just the highlights, would
you watch the news or would you
scout around or would you look
at the competition?

27:13.000 --> 27:14.000
I think you would.

27:14.000 --> 27:15.000
I think you would.

27:15.000 --> 27:19.000
So I'm not too sure about
putting all the topics of a show
into the show notes.

27:19.000 --> 27:23.000
I like it from production from a
production standpoint.

27:23.000 --> 27:28.000
So for instance, Michael Butler
played a song that he received
on CD the other day.

27:29.000 --> 27:33.000
Podsafe music. He actually built
it as Podsafe music in a rock
and roll geek show.

27:33.000 --> 27:35.000
And he played it.

27:35.000 --> 27:38.000
And what I'd like is I'd like to
be able to get that song.

27:38.000 --> 27:49.000
In fact, I'd like my, you know,
to be able to just click
something and get his production
notes and click on that song and
be able to take the entire song
and put it into my podcast
without.

27:49.000 --> 27:51.000
It will be beautiful.

27:51.000 --> 27:53.000
I didn't even have to download
it if it was kind of just all
there.

27:53.000 --> 27:54.000
But it doesn't matter.

27:54.000 --> 28:00.000
If I could just drag and drop
that into my, into my production
console, that would be enough
for me.

28:00.000 --> 28:07.000
But I'm definitely freaked out
about, you know, this is what's
on the show because you do get
the judge book by its cover.

28:07.000 --> 28:11.000
And maybe we'll get there
anyway, so maybe we have to
learn how to write better show
notes.

28:11.000 --> 28:14.000
That could be possibly, you
know, just the way it is.

28:14.000 --> 28:21.000
In fact, have you ever noticed
that if you, it's almost
impossible to get the rundown of
Letterman and Leno at the same
time.

28:21.000 --> 28:24.000
Because you'll start, I think I
used to do it.

28:24.000 --> 28:37.000
I'd start out with Letterman
and, you know, and then switch
after the first two names of
Letterman because those will be
his top guess switch over to
Leno in the intro to see if you
can see who's going to be on
Leno show.

28:37.000 --> 28:42.000
And it's very hard because they,
they promote everything almost
at exactly the same second.

28:42.000 --> 28:45.000
So you kind of got to make a
decision beforehand.

28:45.000 --> 28:50.000
And maybe people do make
decisions, maybe it's based upon
the decisions of the promos.

28:50.000 --> 28:51.000
I don't know.

28:51.000 --> 28:52.000
I don't know.

28:52.000 --> 28:54.000
Anyway, just in the mail.

28:54.000 --> 28:55.000
What are we at?

28:55.000 --> 28:56.000
Geez, only 10 more minutes.

28:56.000 --> 28:57.000
I'm never going to make it.

28:57.000 --> 28:58.000
Okay.

28:58.000 --> 29:02.000
In the mail today, I finally got
the brand new CD by Barry Coral.

29:02.000 --> 29:07.000
We actually played something,
what do we play, aspiring angel
a couple days ago.

29:07.000 --> 29:09.000
Beautiful note, Adam, hope
you're well.

29:09.000 --> 29:11.000
I've gotten some really nice
emails from your listeners.

29:11.000 --> 29:12.000
Thanks for all your support.

29:12.000 --> 29:14.000
We'll smiley face from Barry
Coral.

29:14.000 --> 29:18.000
Confessions of an indie girl is
the title of the CD.

29:19.000 --> 29:22.000
One of the songs I liked a lot
was midnight trained at Georgia,
her rendition.

29:22.000 --> 29:25.000
I'm not going to play that
because I want to play something
that she wrote herself.

29:25.000 --> 29:30.000
This is a song I like from her
CD.

29:30.000 --> 29:36.000
This is the world you call home.

29:36.000 --> 29:41.000
I guess it's a planetary
premiere everybody on the Daily
Source Code, Barry Coral.

29:41.000 --> 29:45.000
Well, they got your down in your
home town.

29:45.000 --> 32:26.250
[ Music ]

32:28.000 --> 32:30.000
Oh, yeah, yeah.

32:30.000 --> 32:34.080
and V3 player. The world you
call home, Barry Coral, from a
brand new CD,

32:34.080 --> 32:39.360
conversions of an indie girl,
check it out and find out where
you actually buy this CD. I'd

32:39.360 --> 32:46.880
say Barry Coral.com,
B-A-R-I-K-O-R-A-L. Or as we say
in the aviation world,

32:49.200 --> 32:58.080
so do it. Bravo Alpha Romeo,
India, Kilo, Oscar Romeo,
AlphaLima.com. Tomorrow I'll
play some more

32:58.320 --> 33:05.360
from Barry Coral. Really digging
that CD. It's some of it's
downbeat, some of it's slow,

33:05.360 --> 33:10.320
but there's some real good
uptempo tunes, and I think
tomorrow I'll play the midnight
train to Georgia.

33:10.320 --> 33:15.280
I love her rendition of that.
It's really cool. Okay, got a
little more time that I've
budgeted at

33:15.280 --> 33:21.520
least because I don't want to
keep you wait and longer than
you have to on finishing up the
goddamn

33:21.520 --> 33:28.960
show. Podzilla. Talk about this
yesterday about loading Linux on
your iPod, and once I got back

33:28.960 --> 33:36.000
and after I'd picked up
Christina's friend, I did it. I
installed Linux on my iPod. It
was really

33:36.000 --> 33:42.560
easy. You know, download of the
application, click it, select it
my iPod, it installed. It's a
dual boot

33:42.560 --> 33:49.040
if you can believe it. So when I
crank up the iPod, I can choose
whether to boot into Linux,

33:49.120 --> 33:56.400
or I can choose if I want to go
into the regular iPod system. I
said like 10 gigs left or the

33:56.400 --> 34:02.720
40 gigs. So basically when you
boot into Linux, there's 10 gigs
sitting there. Just waiting to
be used.

34:02.720 --> 34:09.360
All the executable files are in
there. It's amazing. I think
this is just the beginning. I
think a

34:09.360 --> 34:13.520
lot has to be done, but this is
the first time actually the ship
was working. I could scroll
through

34:13.520 --> 34:18.800
songs that were already on there
by the way. In the other memory
space that I guess it's

34:18.800 --> 34:24.480
somehow knows how to see that.
And I could play them. Of
course, a lot of the stuff that
you've

34:24.480 --> 34:29.440
come to know and love about the
iPod like power management, it
turned off automatically. It
doesn't

34:29.440 --> 34:36.160
do that in Linux mode, but damn,
we've got some really smart
people working on this stuff
developing.

34:36.160 --> 34:41.040
And I'm going to follow it. I'm
going to keep all the updates
going. I'm very excited about
this,

34:41.040 --> 34:45.760
because if you can get an
operating system on to an MP3
player, we could maybe route
around

34:45.840 --> 34:51.840
everybody and just make what we
like. And please check out
iPod.org where Dave started a
conversation

34:51.840 --> 34:57.040
about, you know, what's wrong
with the iPod? What can we do to
make it better? And there's lots

34:57.040 --> 35:03.280
of people sending in all kinds
of smart ideas. And now we
actually might be able to to
bring those

35:03.280 --> 35:08.400
ideas to life. One of them, of
course, is recording on the
iPod. Not in this crappy eight

35:08.480 --> 35:15.440
kilohertz sample bitrate that
the built in and I'm Mike and
whatever, you know, that they
produce

35:16.400 --> 35:20.880
standard out of the box with the
iPod. But now you can go up to
96 kilohertz sample rate.

35:20.880 --> 35:25.440
And the guy that turned me on to
this is Ford Bailey. And Ford
was nice enough to send

35:25.440 --> 35:30.720
executive done it myself, but he
sent me a recording that he made
on his iPod. Listen to the
quality.

35:31.600 --> 35:39.840
Hey Adam, Ford Bailey here. And
I'm recording on my iPod at 44.1
kilohertz. 44.1, but you do.

35:41.280 --> 35:49.040
You know, it's unlocked the
potential of the iPod for
recording this iPod Linux has,

35:49.040 --> 35:54.960
because Apple won't let you
record it. I think it's eight
kilohertz, which is fucked up.

35:55.840 --> 36:02.640
And, you know, where the artists
now, we need to be able to
record our shit, right?

36:02.640 --> 36:09.680
Yeah, going. Try iPod Linux out
and try the recording. It'll
record Mike or

36:09.680 --> 36:16.080
line in beautiful. So you can
use it as a recording device
from from your power book or
whatever.

36:16.800 --> 36:22.880
And it's not invasive install.
You can install it alongside
your original iPods operating
system.

36:22.960 --> 36:24.800
So it's, uh, it's pretty easy.

36:26.080 --> 36:30.800
Give it up. You're warranty may
be void. And no, we're
prohibited by law.

36:30.800 --> 36:35.120
And, uh, it's put the word so
that we can get, you know,
development to speed up on this
project,

36:35.120 --> 36:40.800
because that will, you know, we
have open source software on
iPod. We'll be probably be
better off.

36:40.800 --> 36:42.960
Thank you. No kidding. And then
how far off is?

36:42.960 --> 36:47.200
Okay. Thanks buddy. And how far
off is, uh, is the eye river
from there? You know, or any
other

36:47.200 --> 36:52.160
MP3 player? I mean, is it? I
don't know. I don't know why you
can, maybe the iPod can do this,

36:52.240 --> 36:56.080
because it has, you know, a
disconnect. So it has a
discontroller and all kinds of
stuff. I don't

36:56.080 --> 37:02.800
know anything about this, but
totally, totally exciting to it.
Even just to boot up and see
your boot up

37:02.800 --> 37:08.240
sequence, you know, if, if
you've ever seen Linux boot up,
uh, or if you, um, if you boot
up your

37:08.240 --> 37:13.520
Mac and you press, uh, Apple key
V for verbose, it'll give you
the same start up. You see all
the

37:13.600 --> 37:19.200
BSD stuff, and it's real geeky,
right? But I love seeing that on
my iPod.

37:21.920 --> 37:27.200
Yeah, it's exactly. It's time
for what is a day number nine of
our 12 days of podcasting.

37:33.200 --> 37:38.800
Eight review movies, seven
torrent seating, a six pack of
hanging,

37:44.480 --> 37:54.080
three goofy coke, two punks of
cousin and closures in an XML
tree. Yeah, okay. If that
doesn't do it for you,

37:54.080 --> 37:59.920
then maybe tomorrow's
installment will. Musicians,
we're not all musicians. That's
for sure.

37:59.920 --> 38:04.960
All right, everybody in the
kitchen, sing on now. Take it up
back. Take your hat for new

38:04.960 --> 38:11.120
music. Take your hat. All making
me laugh. Yeah, everybody.
Morning, noon, and night.

38:11.120 --> 38:12.160
Good night, internet.

38:14.320 --> 38:19.840
Who are my kids just now? That's
it for the source code for today
for Thursday, December 29th.

38:22.960 --> 38:25.760
So I didn't get to everything I
wanted to talk about today, but
that's good because I had some

38:25.760 --> 38:30.960
stuff left over for tomorrow,
uh, which we're talking about,
and that will make it, uh,
Thursday,

38:31.120 --> 38:38.400
the 30th almost the end of the
year, and only five more days
away from absolute total mega

38:38.400 --> 38:47.440
bandwidth at the cottage. As
always, comments are more than
welcome at adamantcurry.com.

38:47.440 --> 38:51.680
If you want to send an audio
comment or song or anything, if
it's under five meg, it's just a

38:51.680 --> 38:56.800
touch it, send it off tonight,
and it'll be there waiting for
me in the morning. I'm off to
Starbucks

38:57.120 --> 39:01.440
to shoot this one up to the
bird. As we used to say in the
radio biz, and of course,

39:01.440 --> 39:06.720
the download all the latest
stuff, because so many new
podcasts every single day
between 10 and 20

39:06.720 --> 39:12.080
new ones listed on ipodder.org,
which is populating throughout
the entire net, got to love it.

39:12.080 --> 39:15.600
All right, everybody. Take care.
See you tomorrow. Bye, bye.
