00:00.000 --> 00:08.800
Daily source code 1 25 2005
transmitters we don't need no
stinking transmittance

00:08.800 --> 00:14.240
Autistic it's Adam Curry and it
is Tuesday January 25th

00:14.240 --> 00:19.360
Oh man always gotta think about
that for a second what is the
date today

00:19.360 --> 00:23.440
Hi everybody welcome to the
Daily source code coming to you
from the affluent

00:23.600 --> 00:25.600
Surrey suburb

00:25.600 --> 00:29.920
It's kill for that's right. It's
curry cottage. My name is Adam
Curry

00:29.920 --> 00:33.280
This is your Daily source code
for Tuesday January 25th

00:37.360 --> 00:41.440
Good stuff to talk about today
some techno bits. We're gonna be
looking at

00:42.640 --> 00:46.320
Looking at the cast blaster got
some pod save tunes for you

00:47.440 --> 00:53.040
And of course some promos some
some wacky stuff all the stuff
you'd expect from the Daily
source code for the next 40
minutes

00:53.760 --> 00:58.240
Taking you down on a journey
from nowhere leading to nowhere

00:59.120 --> 01:01.600
That's right as a constant we
call it a show

01:06.240 --> 01:12.320
I tell you um yesterday I got
three calls from different news
organizations and publications

01:13.920 --> 01:21.520
It seems like we're going
through kind of like a 2.0 round
of press the press is not done
with pod casting

01:21.600 --> 01:25.920
I thought that we pretty much
had everybody and and everybody
had written their piece but

01:27.120 --> 01:31.200
Seeing as this probably is not a
passing fad they're coming back
for more

01:32.400 --> 01:36.560
If the BBC asked me for one more
thing I'm gonna ask him to put
me on the payroll

01:37.760 --> 01:42.480
And BBC has so many different
radio stations and programs and
they seem to be

01:43.280 --> 01:45.280
Rather poorly co-op coordinated
actually

01:46.240 --> 01:51.920
Because they don't know you know
one side doesn't know what the
other side is doing and who is
doing what show for what reason?

01:51.920 --> 01:56.160
It's okay though because I don't
mind the BBC is pretty much
figured me out now

01:56.880 --> 01:59.440
All you got to do is call Adam
send him up to the

02:00.080 --> 02:05.440
BBC SCR southern counties radio.
That's it sirry university

02:05.760 --> 02:09.440
They've got an ISD and set
there. I sit down and and off we
go

02:09.760 --> 02:16.400
But even actually let me look on
my calendar even for for this
week and next week there's all
kinds of stuff scheduled

02:16.640 --> 02:21.440
But the angles are a little bit
different you know now it's not
how to this happen how this come
to be now

02:21.440 --> 02:23.440
They're looking for angles

02:24.000 --> 02:29.440
Future you know where is
podcasting going what are the
big industries saying are they
affected by it

02:30.560 --> 02:34.560
So let me see next week USA
today and

02:35.680 --> 02:37.680
What did I have here?

02:37.680 --> 02:39.680
I had something there. I think

02:40.640 --> 02:42.640
CNN international

02:42.640 --> 02:45.600
Hold on actually got to type
that into the calendar there

02:46.320 --> 02:48.320
CNN international this week

02:48.560 --> 02:50.560
We still have

02:50.560 --> 02:52.560
Hold on I call it a little slow

02:54.960 --> 02:57.840
Yeah, BBC technology show

02:58.800 --> 03:05.840
Aramaica that's tomorrow
afternoon that'll be a telephone
interview that I try to turn
them on to using the ISD and set

03:06.240 --> 03:10.000
Because I know that the BBC
rents it out commercially and I
don't think we'll be able to do
that

03:10.000 --> 03:12.000
But so Aramaica that should be
fun

03:12.960 --> 03:16.640
And it just keeps on coming and
unfortunately next week USA
today

03:17.760 --> 03:22.640
Also wants to take a picture.
I'm really worried about that if
you heard yesterday's podcast
you know why

03:23.200 --> 03:31.360
Because well, I look like an
idiot and I'm not I repeat I am
not going to post a picture on

03:32.320 --> 03:38.720
The weblog it's it's frightening
if if if you want to have
frightening just check out yes,
there's podcast at the end there

03:38.720 --> 03:41.440
We're Patricia was basically
talking about

03:43.200 --> 03:45.200
Well, how ugly I look

03:45.200 --> 03:48.640
So I can hear that the dogs are
barking which means that
something's going on hold on

03:49.920 --> 03:51.920
Okay gardening services are here

03:53.040 --> 04:00.080
First things first yesterday
Scott sent in some trivia. I
completely sucked. I only got
one right

04:00.400 --> 04:04.960
Let's see if for those who're
keeping track chili whack gone
gone gone was the first track

04:06.000 --> 04:11.280
Marty balan hearts should I
should have known that would go
west we closed our eyes. I got
that one right and the fourth
one

04:11.280 --> 04:16.880
I can't believe I didn't get it
of course. I knew this song, but
it guess it was like the album
version of something that I
wasn't

04:17.360 --> 04:20.000
familiar with at least not on
the snippet of course prints and

04:20.640 --> 04:23.760
Controversy and as I guess
correctly ABC look of love

04:24.320 --> 04:27.280
wound that up love the trivia
stuff keep sending it in because

04:28.240 --> 04:30.240
I love looking like a dish

04:30.640 --> 04:37.680
Hello Adam. This is Ted here
from TedPod.phone.ms podcasting
from Ireland and I was just
listening to your show and

04:38.160 --> 04:43.840
Was listening to the guy given
out about you trying to earn
money and all that kind of oh,
okay

04:43.840 --> 04:45.840
This is about the

04:45.840 --> 04:51.040
Was this Sunday show where I
played this show has no name. I
think is is the name of the show

04:51.440 --> 04:53.440
I got was totally railing on me,
but

04:54.400 --> 04:59.760
And there you were trying to
explain yourself. What you
thought you don't have to
explain yourself. So we all want
to be the money if you get it

05:00.160 --> 05:02.160
We all want to be the money

05:02.720 --> 05:03.760
And

05:03.760 --> 05:06.400
But at the same time you was
right that your show can be an
oin

05:09.200 --> 05:10.000
You're right

05:10.000 --> 05:13.760
Like anyone else's show can be
and sure you can just turn it
off a fast forward or maybe like

05:13.760 --> 05:17.440
Exactly, but show mine can be an
oin and if you want to take out
how an oin it is

05:18.000 --> 05:21.600
You know come to my website and
have a look choose Adam

05:22.160 --> 05:24.640
Excellent, okay. That's a good
way to get a promo on the air

05:25.040 --> 05:30.960
But wait did you actually
mention your promo at all is
Adam? I don't think he mentioned
his um his site

05:30.960 --> 05:32.960
Hold on a second I've been

05:33.920 --> 05:37.600
Getting all these through mp3
feedback at gmail.com

05:39.600 --> 05:41.600
Let me see what was this

05:44.160 --> 05:47.920
Was it Chris? I can't remember
I'm I'm searching through this
now

05:48.000 --> 05:50.000
Uh

05:50.320 --> 05:52.000
Well, shoot

05:52.000 --> 05:55.760
You know what I'll put that in
the in the show notes. That's
what I'll do

05:56.320 --> 05:59.120
So you know who that was and you
just make a note right there
that I

06:00.640 --> 06:02.640
Sight address

06:02.640 --> 06:05.200
I'm really starting to get
better at the show notes

06:06.080 --> 06:10.560
You probably notice now that I
have a link to a real HTML page
if you want to take a look at
the show notes

06:11.280 --> 06:12.640
The next step

06:12.800 --> 06:17.680
Really should be putting those
in the actual post itself I
guess instead of providing a
link

06:18.400 --> 06:21.040
And I'm just gonna keep on
providing the opml file

06:21.840 --> 06:26.800
Because I got it, you know, it's
like the raw data so it's XML so
it's totally parsable

06:26.800 --> 06:30.640
So there are things that you can
that you can do with it. I'm the
way we're gonna listen to

06:33.280 --> 06:37.920
A bit of a podcast from event
lab where one of the pod squad
showed up and

06:38.240 --> 06:39.920
And

06:39.920 --> 06:41.920
Another promo here hold on
saying a

06:42.320 --> 06:45.760
Hawaii atom this is John from
legal sound check

06:46.720 --> 06:50.160
Where we feature law plus music
in less than seven minutes

06:51.200 --> 06:53.840
I'd like to add a bit of the
lawyers voice. Oh, last second

06:55.280 --> 07:01.120
Lawyers who do anything that
lasts only seven minutes this is
a podcast I must hear and by the
way

07:01.120 --> 07:07.120
Do you charge by the minute or
just by the hour and chop it up
in a 10 minute chunks legal
equation

07:08.000 --> 07:14.400
We also throw some music into a
sort of boardroom mix and type
things up rather quickly before
I commit corporate career

07:14.720 --> 07:16.080
Hericary

07:16.080 --> 07:21.600
Legal sound check is available
under the law category on your
ipodder.org directory

07:22.640 --> 07:27.760
You know you really set the bar
high on the daily source code
atom many thanks for your hard
work and innovation

07:28.880 --> 07:32.240
And if you ever need any kind of
legal help

07:32.880 --> 07:34.880
Let me know

07:34.880 --> 07:36.880
There are three things I'll send
you straight away

07:38.000 --> 07:40.000
My

07:42.720 --> 07:47.440
That's right send lawyers guns
and money. That's all we need
that'll see

07:51.680 --> 07:53.680
Most action

07:54.240 --> 07:56.240
That's good to see

07:56.800 --> 07:58.480
You know some

07:58.480 --> 08:00.480
Professions some

08:00.480 --> 08:03.280
Legal profession coming into
podcasting indeed

08:03.280 --> 08:06.720
I think there's two podcasts
listed in the ipodder.org
directory

08:07.360 --> 08:09.360
That's where you can find

08:10.160 --> 08:13.920
We'll find any podcast basically
categorized by

08:14.800 --> 08:18.240
By topic man. It's a lot of
noise in the studio here today
people

08:20.240 --> 08:25.280
Talks barking people going nuts.
It's a one 42 by the way in the
afternoon

08:26.000 --> 08:27.680
Patricia and I went to the
doctor this morning

08:28.320 --> 08:31.760
Bright and early she has to get
some prescription for her meds

08:32.720 --> 08:36.640
And so I figured I'd go in as
well, you know, and the peed in
the little cup and everything

08:36.640 --> 08:42.480
Mys will sign up with a doctor
here although I gave I get a
annual physical for my pilot's
license

08:42.480 --> 08:45.920
So I know that I'm pretty much
okay in fact

08:46.640 --> 08:55.280
My next checkup is due. What
does it do? July. Oh, I also got
in touch with the guys from cab
air aviation

08:55.920 --> 08:58.080
They're the ones that have the
flight school up at black bush

08:58.720 --> 09:04.240
So next week I have an
appointment going to go up there
going to drink some coffee going
to kick some tires and

09:05.680 --> 09:07.920
Hopefully work on you know

09:08.320 --> 09:11.840
Finding the right instructor to
help me complete the add-on for
my

09:13.360 --> 09:17.760
PPL for my pilot's license. You
know, I have the helicopter
license just want to get the
fixed wing portion now

09:17.760 --> 09:19.040
It's a lot easier actually

09:19.760 --> 09:23.440
If you already have one license
because you don't have to go
through all the theory again

09:23.440 --> 09:25.120
Don't have to do the test for
that

09:25.360 --> 09:29.200
I have to be signed off on have
to do the check, you know, I
have to demonstrate that I can
really fly

09:29.760 --> 09:34.720
And then it's just building up
experience, you know, it's
renting a plane and going going

09:35.680 --> 09:37.680
Not stopping

09:37.760 --> 09:40.720
until well just not stopping
flying take off landing

09:41.520 --> 09:42.720
Navigating

09:42.720 --> 09:45.760
Navigating is not a big deal
because I've well I have a GPS

09:46.640 --> 09:50.720
But you know, I've flown I have
like six or seven hundred hours
that I've flown

09:51.600 --> 09:58.480
Many of which solo so navigation
is not an issue in fact in in
helicopter navigation sucks
because you've got

09:58.640 --> 10:02.080
Basically your hands and feet
tight up all the time you can
take your hand off the
collective

10:03.360 --> 10:06.640
And you know and lock the
friction down so you can you
know basically

10:07.280 --> 10:10.720
Have one hand free to touch
controls or whatever you need to
do but

10:11.600 --> 10:16.400
In an airplane it's like you
know metal to metal get that
fucker in the air it rotates
speed

10:16.480 --> 10:20.720
Just pull back on the stick it
goes up you flip on the auto
autopilot and

10:21.600 --> 10:23.600
That's what the asteroids are
for after that, right?

10:24.560 --> 10:29.120
Anyway, so that's that's next
week. I'm sure we're doing some
sound seeing or something from
there

10:29.840 --> 10:34.080
And I came across a podcast from
event lab

10:35.440 --> 10:40.000
And it was interesting because
there were a couple of people in
this podcast who I knew Eric
Rice was on this podcast

10:40.720 --> 10:42.240
And I've actually

10:42.240 --> 10:46.000
Drop this podcast into a new
feed which we'll be talking
about in a second

10:46.800 --> 10:50.800
Because you should really listen
to the whole thing. It's it's
like an over an hour

10:51.040 --> 10:55.440
But in this show on the phone or
on I think it was on the phone
or on Skype all of a sudden who
shows up?

10:55.440 --> 10:58.880
But our good buddy member of the
pod squad Michael go hey gohagan

10:59.680 --> 11:02.960
They even started off the show.
How do I pronounce your name
Michael gohagan

11:03.600 --> 11:08.880
You know him from from real
reviews and I'll just play a
little snippet of it just to go
to wet your appetite

11:09.280 --> 11:11.280
And of course you'll find a link
to

11:11.680 --> 11:15.360
To this actual show in the show
notes because he was saying a
lot of really good things

11:15.440 --> 11:17.440
We're talking about

11:17.440 --> 11:19.440
Making money with podcasts

11:19.920 --> 11:27.200
What you have to do to
evangelize it. How you actually
record your podcast what you
need for a podcast and also just
telling other people what
podcasting is all about

11:27.440 --> 11:31.200
I also though and aware that
that means that it's gonna take
a little bit longer

11:31.680 --> 11:33.120
to explain to somebody

11:33.120 --> 11:35.120
Exactly what's going on

11:35.120 --> 11:40.080
And so if I if I meet a friend
as a Japanese yesterday, of
course you go through the
podcast thing

11:40.080 --> 11:43.680
Oh, I have to have an iPod and
you know, eventually they get it
once they got it

11:43.760 --> 11:47.040
You're set but at the same time
if you you use radio

11:47.760 --> 11:49.760
Even though there's that word

11:50.480 --> 11:55.440
Okay, I get it so it comes to
me. Okay, you know then maybe
you explain that it's stored on
the computer and that type of
thing

11:55.760 --> 12:02.880
So as an example if I go to call
a movie studio to ask for a
screen or DVD and I'm real
reviews from MWG blog a podcast

12:03.760 --> 12:10.240
I'm gonna get one reaction as
opposed to I'm calling for real
reviews radio. Yeah exactly
exactly we've talked about this
before

12:10.240 --> 12:12.240
I think even when it comes if
you're doing stuff

12:13.840 --> 12:16.880
on location for instance and you
and you want to interview
somebody

12:17.840 --> 12:20.080
Part of the whole deal is you've
got it, you know

12:21.120 --> 12:26.320
You just got to have the right
equipment. It has to look right
doesn't have to cost the same as
what the pros use

12:26.320 --> 12:32.320
But essentially if you're gonna
stick a mic in someone's face
make sure it kind of has that
professional look

12:32.320 --> 12:36.160
You know, because that's you're
gonna get a very different
response from from some people

12:37.120 --> 12:42.560
And of course you you may decide
that you want to very you want
someone to treat you as you know

12:42.560 --> 12:46.640
Something not important and
perhaps amateur or it's in that
case. You might use a different
type of microphone

12:46.960 --> 12:51.040
Specifically for that reason the
big thing though is the mic cube
you gotta have the mic cube

12:51.040 --> 12:58.080
Which slides up over the
microphone and you know and the
the big TV and radio guys have
have their channel number on it
or their call letters

12:58.080 --> 12:59.040
Whatever

12:59.040 --> 13:02.240
And so indeed if you say real
reviews radio, you know, that's
a

13:02.800 --> 13:07.040
That's a sounds like a much
bigger deal if you're dealing
with people who need to hear
that

13:08.240 --> 13:10.240
It can also be very advantageous

13:11.280 --> 13:13.280
It to get a different type of
response

13:13.280 --> 13:15.280
As I think Michael was pointing
out by

13:15.280 --> 13:20.800
You know showing up with a good
quality perhaps, but maybe more
like a mr. microphone type deal

13:20.800 --> 13:26.320
You're gonna get someone will
you probably able to catch
unawares you know and say things
that you wouldn't expect him to
say normally

13:26.880 --> 13:29.680
Right that was part of my idea
behind creating

13:30.080 --> 13:36.720
KSS X I mean I have a small
studio built boutique studio of
that kind of is responsible for
doing you know anything that I

13:37.040 --> 13:42.240
Essentially do is just okay if
it needs to be more professional
sounding I have a studio name on
it

13:42.480 --> 13:48.080
And I found KSS X kind of my
accident because I have a lot of
friends that do traditional
pirate radio

13:48.320 --> 13:54.720
And I have had friends that are
you know on the air that work
for clear channel and so I love
that podcast and kind of puts
everything in the middle

13:54.720 --> 13:56.080
You know it's a little bit
better

13:56.160 --> 14:01.840
Than pirate, but it's also you
know a little bit more real than
what you might hear you know
that wacky morning, too

14:01.840 --> 14:05.040
Kind of think you mean everybody
get bored of this the crazy
morning

14:06.320 --> 14:10.240
All right event lab podcasting
challenges the title of that
show do check it out

14:11.120 --> 14:16.720
And I show also put that in this
new feed that I'm gonna tell you
about in a couple of minutes

14:18.640 --> 14:20.640
Let me see where was I here

14:22.560 --> 14:25.840
What's all that racket oh man
what they're doing outside

14:26.320 --> 14:31.440
So I still don't by the way
haven't seen anyone actually
connect the wires now that the
pipe is

14:32.960 --> 14:36.160
Has been tunneled through the
garden up to the house

14:36.720 --> 14:41.040
And you know today I'll hook up
that router and see if the the
big mega line is working

14:41.040 --> 14:44.080
I thought it was those guys for
second outside, but no, it's
definitely the gardener

14:44.720 --> 14:47.120
Yes, they were talking about the
OPML

14:48.480 --> 14:53.760
That's a part of the I potted
out org directory that people
are using for the applications
and other directories

14:54.400 --> 14:59.600
And I've got an email from calum
who says that there is

15:01.600 --> 15:08.960
A great essay that Joel Spolsky
wrote about double byte encoding
it's titled the absolute minimum
every software developer

15:09.120 --> 15:14.080
Absolutely positively must know
about unicode and character sets
no excuses

15:15.280 --> 15:19.680
Now calum sets it's very
readable explain the subject to
him more clearly than anything
else you'd ever come across

15:20.240 --> 15:24.080
And I have started to read that
and yes, I'm starting to
understand that

15:25.280 --> 15:27.280
It's not trivial stuff

15:28.000 --> 15:30.000
That's not trivial, but give
that a read

15:31.600 --> 15:36.560
It will explain some of the
issues that we're that we're
running into although really I
found that

15:37.680 --> 15:43.520
You know there's this OPML
stuff, which is great because
OPML is really it's a four hey
on

15:44.080 --> 15:46.080
Is it the gardeners?

15:47.120 --> 15:49.120
I thought they came on Thursdays

15:50.000 --> 15:56.000
Yeah, so we can clean up the
poop the dog shit

15:57.280 --> 15:59.280
He closed the door from me, huh?

15:59.280 --> 16:00.080
Thanks

16:00.080 --> 16:02.080
It gives me much better
acoustics in the studio

16:04.080 --> 16:08.560
Okay back to the pod squad or
the OPMLs what I was talking
about so I use an outline I use

16:09.440 --> 16:14.480
The outline of your find in
radio user land or frontier and
I use it for almost everything I
got it

16:14.480 --> 16:18.000
Got to tell you it's great. I'm
my brain works well without
liners

16:18.240 --> 16:24.080
So when you save an outline
document, that's what the format
is it's OPML outline processor
markup language which is

16:25.760 --> 16:32.160
XML essentially and this is
adopted far and wide
particularly for subscriptions

16:33.760 --> 16:39.840
But when it's an RSS
subscriptions reading list if
you will as an OPML file

16:40.400 --> 16:44.240
These are the types of files
that you'll see almost every
single aggregator and I believe

16:44.800 --> 16:47.200
Most of the podcasts though I
iPodders

16:48.160 --> 16:50.160
Also are able to subscribe

16:50.880 --> 16:57.680
Through OPML files now the file
that I've currently if you ever
seen this the pod squad there's
there's links to it

16:59.120 --> 17:00.640
I did it a little differently

17:00.880 --> 17:04.240
But I think that's kind of
confused everything in everybody
including me

17:04.800 --> 17:08.880
So what I'm going to do now is
I'm going to create a new pod
squad

17:09.600 --> 17:10.960
OPML file

17:11.040 --> 17:15.600
Excuse me, which will include
like you know the 12 or what 10
or 15

17:16.720 --> 17:19.920
Podcast that I listen to so it's
you know it's a personal thing
obviously, but

17:20.400 --> 17:24.560
It's people that you know we've
been working with and pod
casting for for a while

17:24.560 --> 17:28.800
No, I think it's great and you
know it's it's my my personal
pod squad, right?

17:29.440 --> 17:34.080
It's whatever I think belongs on
that list. I'm going to make it
into a traditional OPML file

17:34.480 --> 17:36.480
so that

17:36.560 --> 17:43.120
You can actually just download
this file drag and drop it into
your iPodder and it will
subscribe to all of those

17:43.680 --> 17:45.680
Feed so I'm not going to make it
too big obviously

17:46.160 --> 17:48.480
There's something else for the
iPodder

17:48.480 --> 17:55.040
Guys to think about you know if
I deliver an OPML file that
someone wants to subscribe to
and you just by dragging it in

17:55.840 --> 18:01.280
Perhaps we should have an
automatic only get the first pod
cast from each feed setting or
something like that

18:01.280 --> 18:05.680
So we don't swamp people with
you know hundreds of megs just
from one single

18:06.160 --> 18:08.160
Swoop of the mouse to subscribe

18:08.560 --> 18:14.000
Additionally in the iPodder.org
OPML of the directory. I'm going
to put

18:15.600 --> 18:23.360
The same pod squad file in there
only it won't be RSS links.
It'll just be linked to the RSS
files. I think

18:24.000 --> 18:26.000
Oh

18:31.360 --> 18:36.560
This is a call actually I want
to take hold on cool. I put you
on pause again. I'm getting
pretty good at that

18:36.800 --> 18:39.600
You didn't want to hear that
call. I did but you didn't show

18:41.280 --> 18:49.200
Back to pod squad right so I'm
going to put a pod squad node
into the iPodder.org OPML

18:49.440 --> 18:51.200
Which will be the same as all of
the other

18:52.240 --> 18:58.400
iPodder.org directory nodes so
that you can actually auto you
know subscribe to that to each
individual feed

18:59.360 --> 19:02.720
From your iPodder software. I
think I've gotten all the
buggies out now

19:04.160 --> 19:06.160
so that

19:07.440 --> 19:12.080
So that it's not breaking the
directory browsers in the in the
iPodder software

19:12.720 --> 19:16.400
So you should be able to then
just you know click and
subscribe to those then of
course

19:16.560 --> 19:18.560
I want an HTML version

19:18.560 --> 19:22.960
So you can sample sample those
and I guess

19:24.640 --> 19:30.720
Maybe maybe there should be one
feed for the pod squad so you
just that's actually an
interesting idea

19:32.160 --> 19:33.840
I don't know if that's the right
way to do it

19:33.840 --> 19:38.160
What yeah, let me know what you
think about that if I gave you
one feed for the pod squad and

19:39.520 --> 19:46.000
Essentially whenever a new show
comes out from any of the pod
squad podcast you automatically
receive that

19:46.640 --> 19:51.280
I don't know if that's a good
idea. I guess it's the same
thing if I guess that has more
power if you

19:51.680 --> 19:55.680
Subscribe to all of them because
then if you don't like something
you can unsubscribe. Yeah, that
makes more sense

19:55.680 --> 20:00.240
I guess okay, so anyway I'm
working on that really been
thinking a lot about cleaning up

20:00.720 --> 20:02.720
pointers and stuff

20:02.720 --> 20:04.720
Getting the show knows working a
lot better

20:04.960 --> 20:10.480
You know just so we can I just
got to keep my head straight and
you know be able to see
everything also another

20:11.040 --> 20:13.040
little test that I did

20:13.760 --> 20:15.040
I

20:15.040 --> 20:20.320
Started a podcast feed which I
pointed to yesterday from my
weblog grade calm

20:21.680 --> 20:23.680
For sound seeing tours and

20:24.560 --> 20:32.720
This is my first attempt at a
feed burner feed and I got to
say they've got some pretty
interesting shit going on

20:32.720 --> 20:37.440
The most exciting I guess is
that you can actually look at
statistics and see

20:38.080 --> 20:42.080
I'll pull up the statistics
right now so I released this
yesterday

20:43.360 --> 20:45.760
And it's essentially no more
than a

20:46.720 --> 20:52.640
An RSS feed that you can
subscribe to and whenever I come
across a great sound seeing tour

20:52.640 --> 20:57.680
I'm going to plug that into the
RSS feed so it'll auto download
to your

20:58.480 --> 21:01.440
To your PC or to your iPod or
your MP3 player

21:02.240 --> 21:08.400
On the stats side if got some
you know, it's good. It's
exactly what you want to see as
a as a programmer

21:08.480 --> 21:14.160
I mean as an audio programmer
someone who's you know wants to
know what what you know how many
people are subscribed

21:14.160 --> 21:16.240
What they're using so I'm
looking here at these stats

21:16.720 --> 21:18.720
Pretty interesting

21:18.720 --> 21:21.360
So they have something they call
circulation

21:22.640 --> 21:29.120
And circulation is their attempt
at saying well, okay, these are
the actual number of subscribers

21:29.120 --> 21:33.600
They also give you hits how many
times how many times the feed
has been hit, but so since
yesterday

21:33.600 --> 21:37.280
I have a 446 subscribers to the
sound seeing

21:37.840 --> 21:43.440
Tour what's interesting though
is this pie chart that tells you
what type of iPoders or

21:44.160 --> 21:50.480
Aggregators or what they call
here readers are actually
subscribed to your feed

21:51.120 --> 21:53.120
So check this out for some stats

21:53.840 --> 22:02.080
Interesting to see that fire fox
the live bookmark so that's the
RSS functionality that fire fox
has bundled in with their with
their browser

22:02.640 --> 22:04.640
accounts for 22.4%

22:05.280 --> 22:08.280
iPoder is

22:08.280 --> 22:10.280
18

22:10.280 --> 22:19.040
Percent that's I presume the
lemon version. Yeah because
iPoderex is 3.7% that's about
right for the mac market

22:19.600 --> 22:23.840
Thunderbird 2.0 8.1% so I guess
that's just a regular browser

22:25.280 --> 22:27.280
Excuse me 8.9% is unidentified

22:28.240 --> 22:35.120
net news wire 13.4% and other
readers account for 25% so

22:36.960 --> 22:38.960
From a browser perspective

22:39.600 --> 22:41.600
fire fox

22:41.600 --> 22:43.600
is

22:43.600 --> 22:45.600
higher ranked

22:45.600 --> 22:49.280
Then internet explorer wouldn't
have expected that really

22:50.480 --> 22:52.960
And of the readers and
agregators

22:53.520 --> 22:59.600
Fire fox live bookmarks is the
top followed by iPoder followed
by net news wire

22:59.920 --> 23:03.600
Follow by all the unidentified
followed by Thunderbird iPoderex

23:04.400 --> 23:10.080
And then it goes down to oh this
and more here feed reader
universal feed parser intro v
news

23:10.640 --> 23:14.560
CFN network this is cool. I got
to check these out these like
all iPodd

23:15.680 --> 23:20.480
Variants my god there's a whole
list blog matrix yager feed
demon news gator

23:21.040 --> 23:23.040
nimic pluck sharp reader

23:24.160 --> 23:26.160
Someone's actually using curl

23:26.560 --> 23:28.560
Which is a command line

23:31.520 --> 23:38.480
HTP glide I guess on the mac i
Potter v a j Potter. I'm sorry j
Potter v cool. That's a 2.0

23:39.120 --> 23:44.240
No, oh dot 8.0 a wasu what the
hell is a wasu?

23:45.360 --> 23:50.320
A wasu is a free windows news
reader that runs in the
background on your computer.
Okay blog lines kinger

23:50.880 --> 23:52.480
A kinger has a little

23:52.480 --> 23:55.200
exclamation mark next to it,
which is interesting kinger says

23:55.520 --> 24:01.840
So web based blog aggregator,
but kinger does not currently
report the number of kinger
subscribers to your feed when it

24:01.840 --> 24:05.040
Request the feed meaning I guess
that others do

24:06.880 --> 24:13.200
But I see my yahoo is way down
on the list so I guess they're
not reporting either or just no
one subscribe through my yahoo

24:13.200 --> 24:15.840
I'm gonna keep my eyes on this
see if I can pick up any trends

24:16.240 --> 24:23.760
It's definitely cool to have the
you know some more expanded
stats than then what I'm
normally used to which is
basically just an access number
so

24:24.880 --> 24:26.880
Cool stuff and

24:26.880 --> 24:28.880
Give that feed a try

24:29.280 --> 24:32.000
You know whenever I come across
something they have a little
bookmarklet

24:32.560 --> 24:38.240
If I see an MP3 or I'm listening
to an MP3 that I like I just
click the bookmarklet and it
brings up the

24:38.720 --> 24:42.560
The feed details. I just have to
add a name and a title and it
goes right in

24:43.440 --> 24:49.600
So yeah good stuff now. I know
why so many people are using
feed burner and it does really
allow you to

24:51.520 --> 24:58.320
You know add enclosures to your
feed that normally you might
have if you're using a web blog
system that doesn't support that
so

24:59.440 --> 25:01.440
Let's talk about class

25:01.440 --> 25:03.440
Class blaster for a second. This
is

25:04.240 --> 25:09.520
Was it was it Sunday or was it
yesterday only that I was
talking about you know wanting
something very simple

25:09.520 --> 25:16.880
Well, I can just you know have a
folder on my desktop drop a file
into it and have that
automatically be part of an RSS
feed and

25:16.880 --> 25:23.280
I got tons of email all kinds of
pointers and ideas and scripts
and you know

25:23.840 --> 25:26.160
Everyone has has thought of this

25:26.160 --> 25:29.680
I am certainly not you you can
coming up with this idea

25:30.640 --> 25:32.640
But none of them really

25:32.640 --> 25:35.360
Would work or at least wouldn't
work for me. I could not get
them to work

25:36.320 --> 25:39.680
It seems that if you want to use
Pearl the Mac has a very

25:39.680 --> 25:41.680
Typical Pearl installation

25:42.400 --> 25:51.440
Now anyway Craig Meyer hook me
up big time he created a special
install of the podcastmatic that
I can Bradley wrote

25:52.400 --> 25:54.400
Did I play the promo for
yesterday?

25:54.960 --> 26:00.160
Basically setting it up so that
it works in you know the default
Mac and Tosh install whatever it
is

26:00.160 --> 26:03.200
That was really cool that he did
that for me and this is great

26:03.760 --> 26:05.600
So here's here's the way I have
it set up

26:06.400 --> 26:08.400
I set up a

26:08.400 --> 26:14.320
Separate directory on my dot mac
account so I basically just drop
a file in there drop an MP3 in
there

26:15.120 --> 26:17.120
It uploads and

26:17.120 --> 26:21.040
I still have one manual step
that I do right now, but I'm
gonna make that automatic

26:22.000 --> 26:27.440
You know then I just run this
one command and basically what
it does is it goes in it

26:27.600 --> 26:34.240
checks out how long the file is
it parses the ID three tags and
then creates an HTML file as
well as a

26:35.040 --> 26:38.320
An RSS file which to me looks
validated perfectly

26:39.840 --> 26:41.840
So it works

26:41.840 --> 26:43.440
You know it's

26:43.440 --> 26:48.560
The system is there all I need
to do now of course is just make
the the magic folder that I that
I like so much

26:48.560 --> 26:54.000
So I drop it in and from there
copies it over seamlessly and
once it's copied over it then

26:54.400 --> 26:59.120
Triggers the the update the feed
command so that'll be my a
little project for this
afternoon

26:59.440 --> 27:04.720
But this is good. This is really
starting to get somewhere. This
is the type of podcast
functionality

27:04.720 --> 27:09.680
I think that we need to make for
the masses because it's so
fucking simple it's like an
inbox and outbox

27:09.680 --> 27:16.400
You know just drag this into the
outbox all you have to do all
you have to know is how to fill
out the ID three tags

27:16.400 --> 27:23.680
You can do that in iTunes on the
Mac or Windows and there's a
whole slew of programs that will
let you create those

27:24.080 --> 27:29.040
So essentially once you've set
up your configuration file,
which of course no one in the
right mind really wants to do

27:29.040 --> 27:33.760
But let's say that your your
file is configured so that your
feed reads what it should read

27:33.760 --> 27:36.800
You know in this case I've
called up my test cast blaster
feed or whatever

27:37.920 --> 27:43.360
Everything else is automatic all
you have to do is fill out as
much information as possible in
the ID three tags

27:43.360 --> 27:49.040
And you're good to go. So I will
be experimenting with that and
of course. I'll have the feed to
the cast blaster feed

27:49.680 --> 27:53.680
I have like three MP3s in there
now. It's just going to be stuff
that I think you should listen
to

27:54.480 --> 27:56.480
it's

27:56.480 --> 28:01.280
Stuff that I may have exerved in
the source code, but can't play
the whole thing so for instance

28:01.600 --> 28:04.400
What I just played for you that
that bit from

28:05.360 --> 28:08.400
The podcasting challenges with
Michael Gohagan that's in there

28:08.640 --> 28:13.920
So check out the the show notes
for today's podcast and you'll
be able to subscribe to that
feed let me know

28:15.360 --> 28:18.720
You know what you think and if
anyone else is working on more
of these

28:19.200 --> 28:22.480
Simple dragon drop creator
podcast systems

28:23.040 --> 28:27.200
Let me know you know this is
this is cool stuff and this is
the way to get more people

28:28.960 --> 28:34.960
Indepod casting which you know
and of course I was just
thinking not only here's his a
feature that should add of
course

28:34.960 --> 28:36.960
It should ping audio.weblogs.com

28:37.920 --> 28:41.280
Once it's updated the RSS file
so many different things to
think of

28:42.400 --> 28:47.840
And of course thank you all very
much for pointing out to me.
Yes, they have to have played
the mix of the the biddies with
you

28:47.920 --> 28:49.920
Don't owe me

28:49.920 --> 28:51.920
With that was the mix

28:51.920 --> 28:56.800
That young pollette did in in
Holland the mix with the Dutch
singer on the rehauses

28:57.600 --> 29:01.440
I of course knew that it was a
cover version and I

29:02.400 --> 29:05.920
Not only did I know this because
I'm a disc jockey and have all
the Lawrence welka albums

29:06.560 --> 29:09.920
Also, it was reiterated on cover
bill to show that the biddies
were on recently

29:10.720 --> 29:15.920
So I don't know if if you knew
that if he was just like
surprised or thought that there
was some plagiarism going on

29:16.240 --> 29:22.560
But a lot of people were really
friendly enough to send me the
original which you'll be
probably remember as this one
done by

29:22.960 --> 29:24.960
Leslie Gordon

29:26.000 --> 29:28.800
Here's you don't only on the
daily source code

29:31.250 --> 31:43.750
[ Music ]

31:47.920 --> 32:17.920
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no,

32:17.920 --> 32:26.720
lives in Amsterdam, and he did a
walking tour of the Albert Cup
market in Amsterdam.

32:26.720 --> 32:29.920
It's really funny because of
course I can understand
everything that's going on

32:29.920 --> 32:34.000
on the background. You should
see his setup, he's using, I
guess it's I think it's a

32:34.000 --> 32:38.800
Bluetooth wireless headset and
it looks just like, you know, he
would be talking

32:38.800 --> 32:42.800
on the telephone, he's walking
through Amsterdam, but besides
it being an excellent

32:42.800 --> 32:47.440
sound-seeing tour and of course
you'll find it in the show notes
for today and in that new

32:47.440 --> 32:55.360
sound-seeing tour podcast feed.
He also, he did something
really, really cool. Let me see
if I

32:55.360 --> 33:00.960
can, I'll fire it up, let's do
the beginning of it and he
explains how, you know, it's
basically

33:00.960 --> 33:07.200
it's more than just a
sound-seeing tour, why it's a
multimedia tour. The bicycle
mark audio

33:07.760 --> 33:15.360
I'm sorry it's a commuter K
actually, it's what I meant. So
it is Saturday, January 22nd,
2005,

33:15.360 --> 33:21.440
and I'm bringing you our first
sound-seeing tour in Amsterdam,
and one more thing before I go,

33:21.440 --> 33:26.240
thank you to no coins for
leaving me a little tip in the
tip jar, funding the podcasts
for a

33:26.240 --> 33:29.440
couple of more months, and here
we go. Okay, check this out.

33:29.840 --> 33:37.920
All right, good morning from
Amsterdam, or whatever, good
evening, wherever you are,

33:37.920 --> 33:44.320
it's morning here, about midday,
and I'm in the pipe neighborhood
of Amsterdam. Of course you'd

33:44.320 --> 33:49.680
be in the pipe neighborhood,
it's my favorite neighborhood,
which would be in the south,
just behind

33:49.680 --> 33:54.240
the Heinrich and Brewery, which
you may know and love so well.
Okay, so you didn't know it,

33:54.240 --> 33:59.200
this is, yeah, like the sweeper
says, the bicycle mark audio
communique, and today I'm going

33:59.200 --> 34:04.240
to take a sound-seeing tour of
the Albert Kite market, where
basically I intend to

34:05.280 --> 34:11.680
describe everything to you in
words, maybe describe the
smells, the feels, and I hope
the sounds

34:11.680 --> 34:18.000
will just come across pretty
well. Just listening to him talk
about it, I can already feel the

34:18.000 --> 34:25.040
fresh air and all our stuff and
shit go away. I'm busy, please,
can't you turn on podcasting?

34:25.120 --> 34:29.520
Here for yourself. A lot of
people running around, so a lot
of people are going to be
looking at

34:29.520 --> 34:33.280
me when they're going to what
I'm doing, but it's Amsterdam,
so we don't, we don't tend to
really

34:33.280 --> 34:39.040
give a shit. Also, I brought my
digital cam along, just to be
taking photos, which you can

34:39.040 --> 34:47.920
follow along in my flicker photo
show. How cool is this? And he
does this really high-tech thing

34:47.920 --> 34:54.400
in a really old school way.
Check it out. And what I'll do
is I'll play the law in order

34:56.000 --> 35:01.840
sound, and that means change
pictures. And so that reminds me
of, when I was a kid in school,

35:01.840 --> 35:07.600
you know, and you'll be
listening to some audio tape,
and you have a workbook that
goes

35:07.600 --> 35:12.240
along with it, and you hear the,
and that means you had to turn
the page. In fact, I think it
was,

35:13.120 --> 35:17.040
maybe that was with the
Bonsio-Line Bonsio-Missio-Lip
Professor,

35:18.320 --> 35:23.840
turn the page. Anyway, you got
to check it out, some great
photos. He actually forgot to

35:23.840 --> 35:30.880
continue to take pictures about
halfway through, but totally new
way of listening to a sound

35:30.880 --> 35:35.600
scene tour. It works perfectly
well without the pictures, by
the way. But it's, I did it with

35:35.600 --> 35:40.640
the pictures. I didn't, you
know, skip ahead, although,
unfortunately, in the flicker
slide show,

35:40.720 --> 35:45.200
it already shows you what the
next frame is going to be in a
little mini previews. That kind
of,

35:45.200 --> 35:50.240
yeah, that kind of ruins it a
little bit. But awesome.
Awesome. Looking forward to many
more

35:50.240 --> 35:58.800
communicates from our buddy
bicycle mark. You'll like this.
It's like an MTV slamer. The

35:58.800 --> 36:05.920
ballot of Carson Daily. This is
Master Pierce Weirder. Tony
Goldmark brings it to you.

36:08.750 --> 37:55.680
[ Music ]

37:55.680 --> 38:02.080
dead or alive. And so after a
failed marriage to actress
Tauri, he got caught up into
what

38:06.250 --> 39:28.750
[ Music ]

39:30.320 --> 39:34.880
Too bad it kind of fades out.
It's like a cop-out should have
ended that song.

39:34.880 --> 39:40.320
The ballad of Carson Daily just
want to say a couple things
about that. First of all it's
funny.

39:40.320 --> 39:48.320
You know it makes me chuckle but
it's really not fair. Carson
actually had that job. I did
before

39:48.320 --> 39:57.840
it was TRL total request live.
It was MTV's most wanted and
before that it was dial MTV.

39:57.920 --> 40:02.640
And the same format. You know
you call you vote you vote
through the by the phone lines

40:03.200 --> 40:07.920
that used to be free by the way
when I was still there. It was
free free call or just like a
regular

40:07.920 --> 40:13.920
toll call. And now of course I'm
sure you pay money for that for
voting and you know well

40:13.920 --> 40:20.960
rightly so but that's how much
has changed. So I had that job
and you know when you leave MTV

40:21.760 --> 40:26.560
and I'm not quite sure why he
left or if he's even gone I
guess I guess he's gone.

40:27.200 --> 40:31.680
I don't know him personally.
Although he probably still works
with the exact same camera

40:31.680 --> 40:35.760
people that I used to work with.
A lot of people are they have
been there for 20 years at
least.

40:35.760 --> 40:40.560
It's been 10 years since I've
been there. But you know people
are it's hard when you leave

40:40.560 --> 40:45.200
a gig like that you know MTV
it's like you're you're so
fucking pigeonholed you know if
you think

40:45.200 --> 40:51.840
it's a springboard to anything
oh that's just not certainly not
in show business. I mean MTV

40:51.840 --> 40:57.920
is weighed down on the ladder
and of course you make no money
and that's very relative. I mean

40:57.920 --> 41:02.240
of course you make money you
make good money by all standards
you're in the richest one

41:02.240 --> 41:10.720
percent of the world. But it's
not like showbiz crazy Hollywood
fucking money no way no no no
no.

41:11.920 --> 41:20.000
I see when I was at MTV until
what I made I made the first
year $150 and the second year

41:20.080 --> 41:25.440
$175,000. Great money don't get
me wrong don't send me feedback
that you know I'm fucked up for

41:25.440 --> 41:30.720
sake but it's not the 10 million
you know Tom Cruise gets for a
movie of course it doesn't

41:30.720 --> 41:38.000
require the same type of talent
either. But it's the best money
you're ever going to make as you

41:38.000 --> 41:42.000
know as a VJ because from there
I don't think you really can go
no one's really been successful

41:42.000 --> 41:48.880
at moving further in show
business and what I'll do this
is a good idea I'm going to get
Ken

41:48.880 --> 41:56.960
Clark on a Skype call Ken was
the talent coordinator he does a
podcast with Cindy who who I
also

41:56.960 --> 42:03.840
worked with it's the Ken and
Squip show and I'll get Ken on
the honker and we should just
have a

42:03.840 --> 42:08.240
chat and let's just run down the
list and let's see what
everyone's done because he keeps
in contact

42:08.240 --> 42:13.760
or knows pretty much what
everyone is doing and they're
actually doing some interesting
things so

42:14.480 --> 42:19.520
that's a promise for a future
maybe we'll do that tomorrow
he's I think he's on tour now or
whatever

42:20.240 --> 42:25.280
but maybe when he gets back home
or when we can work out the time
differences between West Coast

42:25.280 --> 42:31.280
and London we'll hook that up.
One more mention before I go
remember Craig Patchett's
daughter who

42:32.400 --> 42:37.120
read the Bible verse couple
months ago I had it on the
playdown the source code

42:38.000 --> 42:44.160
she is now doing her own podcast
which probably makes her the
youngest podcast or eight years
old

42:45.360 --> 42:53.520
which actually Rick from ICM
Ross and me the Zemois says that
beats out Matthew Bishop by six
years

42:53.520 --> 42:59.680
so there's a link to her show at
it's a part of the godcast
category and the godcast network

42:59.680 --> 43:05.360
actually and you can find that
at godcast.org of course through
ipod.org in the directory

43:06.000 --> 43:12.800
that's it for the show 43
minutes little longer than
normal actually I think I've
been running

43:12.800 --> 43:18.640
consistently over 40 minutes so
I think got to keep a tight I'll
be back tomorrow it's going to
be a

43:18.640 --> 43:24.720
real busy day not quite sure
what time I'll have a show up
for you gonna try and get it up
in the

43:24.720 --> 43:29.600
morning hours for me which means
it'll be ready for everyone's
state side even before you go

43:30.080 --> 43:36.800
or in the comments add them at
correct calm if you're going to
send me an MP3 file send it to

43:36.800 --> 43:47.040

source code

43:59.040 --> 44:03.520
