going home. 04:10.400 --> 04:11.600 I can't believe I am going home. 04:12.400 --> 04:16.000 It's been three weeks to the day. 04:16.000 --> 04:18.000 No, three weeks and the day. 04:18.000 --> 04:19.200 So by the time I get home, 04:19.600 --> 04:23.200 that'll be tomorrow three weeks and two days that I've been out here in 04:24.000 --> 04:26.800 in Pod Show HQ vicinity. 04:27.600 --> 04:30.240 And as I said, I'm very much looking forward to going home. 04:30.240 --> 04:32.640 But everyone who's been listening to the daily source code knows that. 04:34.800 --> 04:38.000 Man, I must say I'm pretty darn invigorated. 04:38.000 --> 04:41.200 Yes, it's been a fantastic couple of weeks. 04:42.000 --> 04:43.760 We've really achieved quite a lot. 04:44.960 --> 04:48.000 That's just from a personal and company perspective. 04:48.000 --> 04:50.400 And I think we've actually had some fun on the show as well. 04:50.400 --> 04:53.920 Although I have to tell you, I'm really looking forward to doing another show with Patricia. 04:54.480 --> 04:56.640 So I'm hopeful and confident. 04:56.640 --> 04:59.680 I'll be able to drag her in front of the microphone tomorrow morning when I get home. 04:59.680 --> 05:02.640 And there's a lot more to go home into the UK for as well. 05:02.640 --> 05:04.400 I mean, there's a lot of cool stuff happening. 05:05.600 --> 05:06.400 Hello, Adam. 05:06.400

first time, they're podcasting from here. 05:16.800 --> 05:21.280 More on that in a moment, but I can tell you that this morning, I was a judge for 05:21.280 --> 05:24.240 one of the heats of champion beer of Britain. 05:24.240 --> 05:29.440 And before lunchtime, I'd already had inside me seven miles and a bitter. 05:29.440 --> 05:34.160 So it's now gone 10 o'clock at night and I'm starting to feel a bit jaded. 05:34.160 --> 05:35.440 There's a load of people here. 05:35.440 --> 05:36.240 It's great fun. 05:36.240 --> 05:40.080 We've been talking to the organizers of the event behind the scenes. 05:40.080 --> 05:43.360 We've talking to the volunteers that staff the festival. 05:43.360 --> 05:46.240 And we're playing some great podsafe music as well. 05:46.320 --> 05:51.360 So please do have a

06:13.040 --> 06:14.160 Yeah, slange it. 06:15.360 --> 06:16.720 Skull. 06:16.720 --> 06:18.080 Prost. 06:18.080 --> 06:19.040 Lovely. 06:19.040 --> 06:22.240 Hey, dude, don't thank me for the podsafe music network. 06:22.240 --> 06:24.640 Thank the artists that upload all their stuff there. 06:24.640 --> 06:25.840 That's what you should be thinking. 06:25.840 --> 06:27.040 And of course, I'm sure you do. 06:27.040 --> 06:32.080 I haven't listened yet, but I fully intend on getting a copy of the show and listening to it. 06:32.080 --> 06:35.120 I'm on the plane because of course I've got my 10 hours coming up. 06:35.120 --> 06:39.440 My, yeah, it's about nine and a half or sometimes depending on the win, 10 and a half hours. 06:40.400 --> 06:45.760 Now, being here in the condo and you have to know the condo that I'm in is it's a beautiful building 06:45.760 --> 06:47.520 and it has fantastic facilities. 06:47.520 --> 06:53.360 It has a wonderful, it has a movie theater, which I've actually never checked out at all. 06:53.360 --> 06:55.600 It has a swimming pool. 06:55.600 --> 07:00.800 It's got a hot tub or it's got a sauna and it has a fantastic gym. 07:00.800 --> 07:03.200 And every single time I come here, I tell Patricia, 07:03.200 --> 07:05.120 yeah, man, I'm going to get into the regimen. 07:05.120 --> 07:05.840 And I'm going to start again. 07:05.840 --> 07:08.320 I'm going to work out every single day when I come back from the office. 07:08.320 --> 07:10.000 And of course, what has it been every single day? 07:10.000 --> 07:15.680 I come back from the office and I collapse in front of either my laptop or the television, 07:15.680 --> 07:16.720 or both, sometimes. 07:19.120 --> 07:22.320 And if you've listened to the daily source code before, 07:22.320 --> 07:25.680 you know that Patricia makes fun of my physique all the time, 07:25.680 --> 07:28.160 which of course is exactly what a guy with my physique wants to hear. 07:29.760 --> 07:35.440 And one of the things she keeps on pointing out is that as the years grow on me, 07:35.440 --> 07:36.720 the ass is declining. 07:38.960 --> 07:43.040 And so I was a little bit worried about coming home. 07:43.840 --> 07:45.520 I don't think there's anything I can do about it now anyway, 07:45.520 --> 07:47.840 but I was very worried about coming home and her looking at me and saying, 07:47.840 --> 07:49.040 hey, you look at shambles. 07:49.600 --> 07:50.880 Look at that, you didn't work out at all. 07:50.880 --> 07:52.720 Which of course, you know I didn't work out. 07:53.680 --> 07:58.240 But we have at Pod Show HQ, a fantastic show. 07:58.960 --> 08:01.680 It's the fitness attack with Amy Mack. 08:02.240 --> 08:04.800 And if you haven't seen it, you can just go to podshow.com, 08:04.800 --> 08:06.160 you can search for a fitness attack. 08:07.200 --> 08:09.440 I think it's in rotation on the home page, 08:09.440 --> 08:11.120 so you'll probably see it pop up there as well. 08:11.120 --> 08:16.640 Amy Mack does a 60-second workout. 08:16.640 --> 08:20.720 And she's also actually helping all of the pod show employees, 08:20.720 --> 08:24.160 those who are interested and motivated twice a week, 08:26.400 --> 08:28.080 with exercise at the office. 08:28.080 --> 08:30.960 Which is another thing I didn't participate. 08:31.200 --> 08:32.560 What is it made in? 08:32.560 --> 08:34.000 So I asked for some help. 08:34.000 --> 08:36.400 And I said to Amy Mack, I said, you know, Amy, 08:36.400 --> 08:38.800 I really need to get my ass back on track, 08:38.800 --> 08:44.000 because, look, my wife is 15 years older than I am. 08:44.000 --> 08:46.080 She should have a man with a much better physique. 08:46.960 --> 08:51.280 So she says that she has a program for me 08:51.280 --> 08:52.720 that I'm going to start with today. 08:52.720 --> 08:53.680 Today will be the first day. 08:53.680 --> 08:56.080 Now it is a quarter to seven here in San Francisco. 08:56.080 --> 08:58.160 So it's a little bit early, but never too early to start. 08:59.120 --> 09:01.840 Now she said, I needed to have my wireless mic 09:01.840 --> 09:03.600 hold on a second, which I have here. 09:03.600 --> 09:07.040 Let me just look it up, oops, that's the receiver side. 09:07.920 --> 09:08.480 There we go. 09:09.680 --> 09:12.000 Okay, I'm, uh, how's this? 09:12.800 --> 09:17.440 That's something we just changed the location of the microphone here for a second. 09:18.160 --> 09:20.800 Okay, so, uh, this is the wireless mic. 09:20.800 --> 09:23.120 This is the, uh, the other mic, G, what a difference, huh? 09:23.120 --> 09:23.520 Okay. 09:24.400 --> 09:27.600 And, uh, that's all she said I would need. 09:27.600 --> 09:28.880 So let me fire up. 09:30.560 --> 09:34.480 Episode number one of Amy Max, daily source code, 09:34.480 --> 09:35.200 AcerSize. 09:36.720 --> 09:37.360 AcerSize. 09:45.360 --> 09:46.800 Yeah, don't leave me back. 09:46.800 --> 09:49.120 And

10:25.920 Your butt and your stomach. 10:25.920 --> 10:27.600 Don't forget to breathe. 10:27.600 --> 10:30.320 Keep your stomach in both ways as tight as possible. 10:30.320 --> 10:34.000 We call this

10:55.440 I didn't feel that in my ass, Amy. 10:55.440 --> 10:57.600 I felt it in my back. 10:59.840 --> 11:02.400 How can my back be attached to my ass? 11:02.400 --> 11:03.760 My assurse eyes

11:10.800 --> 11:11.440 104. 11:11.440 --> 11:12.480 104. 11:12.480 --> 11:12.800 104. 11:12.800 --> 11:13.440 104. 11:13.440 --> 11:14.160 104. 11:14.160 --> 11:14.800 104. 11:14.800 --> 11:16.160 104. 11:16.160 --> 11:17.440 104. 11:17.440 --> 11:18.160 104. 11:18.160 --> 11:18.480 104. 11:18.480 --> 11:19.440 104. 11:19.440 --> 11:20.160 104. 11:20.160 --> 11:21.440 104. 11:21.440 --> 11:23.600 It's time for the 104. 11:23.600 --> 11:25.120 I'll have moment. 11:26.800 --> 11:27.680 It's not funny. 11:27.680 --> 11:28.800 I actually am dizzy. 11:30.080 --> 11:30.400 All right. 11:30.400 --> 11:31.200 This is a 104. 11:31.200 --> 11:31.760 I'll have moment. 11:32.560 --> 11:34.080 So if you're not interested in 104. 11:34.080 --> 11:34.640 I'll have crap. 11:35.520 --> 11:38.880 You might just want to fast forward about three and a half minutes. 11:39.520 --> 11:43.520 We got to a very beautiful place yesterday at Potio Plus. 11:43.520 --> 11:47.760 We had a lot of reports from people saying that they had one specific page 11:48.480 --> 11:52.160 on Potio Plus that wasn't loading fast for them. 11:52.160 --> 11:53.360 And it wasn't everybody. 11:53.360 --> 11:56.160 It was basically all over the globe. 11:56.160 --> 11:57.520 There were different results. 11:57.520 --> 12:01.600 And what happened was, is once you're logged in my page, 12:01.600 --> 12:05.840 literally would take anywhere from a minute to five minutes before it finally loaded. 12:05.840 --> 12:09.920 This was a problem we've been working on for quite a while. 12:09.920 --> 12:11.920 And that we finally fixed it yesterday. 12:11.920 --> 12:21.600 And since sale moment brought to you by Amy Max Fitness Attack, link in the show notes. 12:24.800 --> 12:25.920 So we finally fixed it. 12:25.920 --> 12:29.040 And there was a call out in the comments on curry.com. 12:29.040 --> 12:31.040 Actually, not on dailysourcecode.com. 12:31.040 --> 12:35.280 By the way, dailysourcecode.com is going to be the place to leave comments 12:35.280 --> 12:38.560 on the show as I have some other plans for curry.com. 12:39.520 --> 12:41.760 And so I won't be crossposting eventually. 12:41.760 --> 12:48.400 But we still have some work to do on the way our blog feature works in Potio Plus. 12:48.400 --> 12:52.720 Anyway, so there was a call out to explain exactly what happened. 12:52.720 --> 12:57.760 And I'll just try and do it the way I think I understand very well what happened. 12:57.760 --> 13:01.680 But essentially, if you look at my page on Potio Plus, 13:01.680 --> 13:04.480 you'll see that it's really several different modules. 13:04.480 --> 13:10.640 And on the right-hand side, you have some recommendations of shows to listen to 13:10.640 --> 13:15.680 new listeners who was popped up channels by new listeners or channels who have just been created. 13:16.800 --> 13:25.120 And what we found in the code, and this is really an esoteric type of problem, 13:26.960 --> 13:32.320 the hang was actually occurring when the images for the connect or the new people, 13:32.320 --> 13:36.640 the cool people, which I think is three images, was being called for that page. 13:37.520 --> 13:42.080 And the way it was being called was actually because we're moving our servers around 13:42.080 --> 13:44.400 and our images servers changing in location. 13:44.400 --> 13:50.960 So the developer that built this particular piece of code put in a link to an HTTP link. 13:50.960 --> 13:55.920 And you could have referenced it to the actual directory on the server where the images live. 13:55.920 --> 14:00.000 But he referenced through a URL, which of course is a podshow.com URL. 14:02.480 --> 14:07.360 What's interesting is that three of that we have a number of servers in our cluster for all this 14:07.360 --> 14:14.720 load balancing that we need to do. But three of those servers, somehow this is the real issue 14:14.720 --> 14:21.680 that had to be solved. Three of those servers were somehow misconfigured. 14:21.680 --> 14:25.680 So when they're actually requesting something from Potio, from their own domain, 14:26.400 --> 14:31.840 for some reason, something was just hanging there for, well, anywhere from a minute to five minutes. 14:33.280 --> 14:37.840 So obviously, we all we had to do was just patch that one line and figure out what was 14:37.840 --> 14:43.280 misconfigured with the servers. But essentially, when someone requests a page from Potio, 14:43.280 --> 14:48.480 the load balancer points you towards a certain server and it has intelligence in there and 14:48.480 --> 14:52.320 caching and knowledge. So the next time you go, it's probably going to send you to the exactly 14:52.320 --> 14:57.440 the same server for load balancing purposes. So people who had already had this error once were 14:57.520 --> 15:01.760 pretty much getting it every single time. And it was great, man. I just sat there yesterday, 15:01.760 --> 15:06.240 well, like, five of us were going through all the different scenarios and we found it and 15:06.960 --> 15:10.240 and gosh, darn it, it's so nice to see it load and so fast. 15:21.520 --> 15:26.720 Learn something new yesterday, talking about spam. I got an email from 15:28.400 --> 15:32.560 Nick Zitler. And this is something I did not know about Gmail. 15:34.560 --> 15:41.200 So to note about Gmail, you can curb spam and such and check this out. When you enter your email 15:41.200 --> 15:46.800 address into a form or anywhere, particularly where, hold on, I just got to pull down the shades 15:46.800 --> 15:51.760 for a second here. The sound is so nice, but I can't quite see the screen. There we go. 15:52.720 --> 15:59.360 So you know, let's say you fill out a form to place a comment somewhere and there's a possibility 15:59.360 --> 16:04.720 of the email address mine show up. Here's what you do. You enter, so let's say my, 16:05.920 --> 16:13.520 your Gmail address is budhead at gmail.com, just as an example. If you enter in your email address 16:13.520 --> 16:20.560 as follows, which in this case would be budhead plus, and then you enter, let's say you were posting 16:20.640 --> 16:26.880 on, on the Don and Drew forum. Now we wouldn't spam you with that. So let's just as an example. 16:28.320 --> 16:36.800 So you do atom plus Don and Drew at gmail.com and, and, and Gmail, then understands that that is a 16:36.800 --> 16:44.240 specific, a specific email address that you use. And I guess then we'll route any, any mail that 16:44.240 --> 16:49.520 comes through that from that particular place with that email address, of course. It'll place 16:49.680 --> 16:54.560 it into your spam folder. So it'll still come to you, but it'll be seen as spam and then it'll 16:54.560 --> 16:59.280 put it into, you know, that kind of breaks down that I think about it. What if I sign up for 16:59.280 --> 17:06.080 automatic notification of comments? Hmm. Anyway, Gmail is doing something a little bit smart there. 17:06.080 --> 17:11.840 So, you know, I should just paste that information into the show. I don't know if I did a very good 17:11.840 --> 17:18.480 job explaining it. Wow, there's a lot of interesting stories. I don't know if you've been following 17:18.560 --> 17:25.120 some of the geek talk about Dig and Netscapes new, well, new, relatively new. 17:26.400 --> 17:31.040 What we call, what's it called now social bookmarking site? Of course, Netscapes is a Jason 17:31.040 --> 17:37.600 Calacanis is kind of taken a lead from Dig and created his own version of that. I think with, 17:37.600 --> 17:44.160 with different different objectives, perhaps a different end game in mind, but it is pretty much the 17:44.160 --> 17:50.880 same idea. But what's happening now? And when I get this story from, oh yeah, from Valleywag, 17:51.760 --> 17:59.360 they'd receive an email. It turns out that media companies and media companies, particularly 17:59.360 --> 18:04.320 marketing companies who are hired by other companies to get them, you know, to get them 18:04.320 --> 18:11.840 press and PR online are actually hiring people. So let's say, you have company A and there's a 18:11.920 --> 18:19.680 story about you in the New York Times. They will hire hundreds of people to dig these stories 18:19.680 --> 18:25.680 to get them higher ranking on the social bookmarking sites. Nothing legal about it, of course, 18:25.680 --> 18:33.520 but it is very interesting to see marketers jumping into the space and what does this mean for the 18:33.520 --> 18:38.880 quote, integrity of a place is like dig. You know, this is something to keep your eye on. I'll post a 18:38.960 --> 18:45.040 link to the email that Valleywag received because I think you'll, you'll definitely next time 18:45.040 --> 18:51.840 you visit a site like Dig or NetScape, you'll probably look at it with new eyes because you just don't 18:51.840 --> 18:55.920 know any more. Is this really something people dig or is this something that is just being pushed 18:55.920 --> 19:02.240 up the chart for a fee? And maybe that's an interesting debate we can have. Is that okay? Is that not 19:02.240 --> 19:10.480 okay? Can the the real quote, zeitgeist of a community actually outweigh the long green of marketers? 19:11.200 --> 19:16.000 Would love to hear from you. Send it to Adam at curry.com or please post it in the comments at 19:16.000 --> 19:22.960 dailysourceco.com. Are you interested in psychology and what makes us tick and personal growth 19:22.960 --> 19:29.280 in the inner life? In the integration of mind, body and spirit, if so, then you need to get on the 19:29.280 --> 19:36.080 couch with Dr. Dave. As he interviews leading edge thinkers from around the broad world of psychology, 19:37.120 --> 19:44.480 you'll find the shrink wrap radio psychology podcast at www.shrinkwapradio.com. 19:46.320 --> 19:50.240 It's all in your mind. You should really listen to that Dr. Dave show. 19:51.200 --> 19:59.600 The people are tuning in. Extremely popular. I've met Dr. Dave a couple of times and 19:59.600 --> 20:04.400 listened to a show and liked it very much and I kind of drifted in and out. I've re-subscribed 20:04.400 --> 20:09.440 I got the show through pod show plus. There's a lot of good stuff there. And for those of you who are 20:09.440 --> 20:14.960 into what your mind is doing, it's an interesting little piece of your body. We talk about it a lot 20:14.960 --> 20:20.640 on the Charlie. What's going on in your head? You might want to check it out. Trinkwapradio. Was that 20:20.640 --> 20:26.560 Trinkwapradio.com? I believe it is. Still working on the show notes. You've probably seen that I'm 20:26.560 --> 20:34.560 no longer posting a long run down. Interesting debate as well about this. Some people never go to 20:34.560 --> 20:39.680 the show notes page. Some will go to the show notes page. After they've listened to the show, 20:39.680 --> 20:46.960 which is always kind of been my hope, is that show notes is more like a reference 20:48.560 --> 20:52.800 after you've listened to the show to go. Oh yeah, I want to go check out that song. But of course, 20:52.800 --> 20:58.240 exactly the opposite seemed to be happening. At least for a majority of people. 20:59.600 --> 21:09.360 And that ascercise gave me sense. The opposite really was happening where 21:09.360 --> 21:14.560 people would go to the show notes, look at the show notes, and then make decisions about 21:14.560 --> 21:19.680 the actual program attached to that based upon those show notes. And so I'm thinking, well, 21:19.680 --> 21:24.560 you know, if that's really what people are doing, then I should probably make the show notes 21:24.560 --> 21:29.840 more attractive, more like a headline. Now, lure you into the program. And then of course, there's 21:29.840 --> 21:36.080 a lot of die hards who want to treat at least this podcast more like a weblogg so they can 21:36.080 --> 21:41.680 deep link into specific sections of it. That I don't like. That's like, you know, I just paint 21:41.680 --> 21:47.440 the picture and people only want to be able to see the middle piece or the right-hand corner, 21:47.440 --> 21:52.640 you know, that I'd rather you not listen if you're going to do that. What I do hope is that we'll 21:52.640 --> 21:58.080 have ways for and we have some of them, but we have ways for people through a through pod show 21:58.080 --> 22:03.040 plus to actually point out pieces of a podcast and hand off a piece of a podcast so you can 22:03.040 --> 22:09.600 listen to the whole thing or go to exactly the point that someone referenced you. But really, 22:09.600 --> 22:12.960 I think I have to make it more of a headline to draw you in. And of course, the trick is, 22:12.960 --> 22:18.160 is at the same time to also provide the information for people who just go there for reference. 22:18.160 --> 22:22.160 So I'm working on it. And of course, this takes something that I don't have a lot of, 22:22.160 --> 22:29.040 which is writing skills. Be prepared for some weird-ass show notes as we, as I go through this, 22:29.280 --> 22:36.000 this very trying period of my life. The unions are up in arms. When I say the unions I'm talking 22:36.000 --> 22:43.040 about after and sag, sag being the screen actress guild after being the American Federation of 22:43.040 --> 22:50.080 Television and Radio Artist. The way it works in mainstream media, if you actually work on a union 22:50.080 --> 22:55.760 project, let's just take a television series as an example. If that television, you know, 22:55.760 --> 23:00.240 there's a, there are set deals. It's like a union, you know. So it's, it's all about compensation. 23:00.800 --> 23:05.680 And if that program is distributed in a certain way, you will get what they call residuals. 23:06.320 --> 23:11.280 So if it's actually re-eared, in fact, I did an episode of Swamp Thing once. Man, 23:11.840 --> 23:17.440 I wish I could find that. I don't have a tape anymore. I starred in an episode of Swamp Thing. 23:17.440 --> 23:25.280 And to this day, I still receive probably on an annual basis about $2.60 of residuals 23:25.280 --> 23:31.600 because it'll, it'll air somewhere on, I think it, air originally on like the USA network or 23:31.600 --> 23:37.440 something and then it goes into syndication for years. This was probably 12 or 13, maybe maybe 23:37.440 --> 23:44.720 maybe in 15 years ago. So, so it's old. But, you know, so what happens when a show like that is 23:44.720 --> 23:50.640 eventually sold through the iTunes Music Store, which I always find an interesting contradiction 23:50.720 --> 23:55.840 in terms it's a television program being sold through the music store. But, okay. So you can download 23:55.840 --> 24:02.320 it and watch it on iTunes or watch it on your, on your video iPod. Should I be getting residuals 24:02.320 --> 24:07.200 from that as well? And of course, the actors feel that absolutely they should. But this is, 24:07.200 --> 24:11.600 you know, it's still kind of been an experimental period. And, and, you know, obviously, 24:12.400 --> 24:16.560 I think these production companies and movie companies don't want to give up anything. 24:17.200 --> 24:21.600 Oh, crap. You know, it's too bad you're listening to us on serious stars 102 because you 24:21.600 --> 24:25.760 can't hear the rest of this story and the last song that I've got lined up for the source code 24:25.760 --> 24:30.240 listeners. However, specific host hellways coming up next, then we'll bring you Dawn and Drew 24:30.240 --> 24:35.040 American cliche, which is a show that is really popping out. Michael Butler after that, 24:35.040 --> 24:41.040 the Frank Truth with the Brian Know, all about the life and times of Frank Sinatra and then 24:41.040 --> 24:46.720 East Radio and Scott Siggler winds it up with his patio book adventures between 930 and 10 24:46.720 --> 24:52.080 Eastern Time. And I'll see you guys again. I'll talk to you guys again tomorrow from the cottage 24:52.080 --> 25:00.960 back in the UK. Take care, have fun with Mark. Okay. Right. So, a whole story about who sent this to me, 25:02.800 --> 25:08.000 Bill Berger sent this to me. And it's a really long story. But it seems like, you know, we, 25:08.640 --> 25:16.720 excuse me, I think we could actually run into a, uh, run into another strike situation. 25:17.360 --> 25:25.200 Because, you know, it's tough, you know, if you think that you, that you really deserve to be paid 25:25.200 --> 25:31.680 for every, um, extra sale of a product and if that was, uh, not the initial agreement to go back 25:31.680 --> 25:37.120 and agree to new industry standards. And I'm watching this very closely because, uh, if anything, 25:37.200 --> 25:43.840 the work we're all doing together is non-union. And, uh, the main reason is because, you know, 25:43.840 --> 25:49.680 I don't think anyone is, uh, is getting really rich off of, uh, off of the independent vibe yet, 25:50.400 --> 25:56.160 uh, sure, uh, we're making money. Potcha was making money, but, you know, the, what I'd be able to, 25:56.960 --> 26:01.840 uh, finance shadow falls if we had to do it by, uh, the union rules. No way. But of course, 26:01.920 --> 26:08.960 those union rules for actors and producers and directors and engineers, etc, are based on, um, 26:08.960 --> 26:14.160 a very rich history of knowing how much money can be made with these projects. And we just really don't 26:14.160 --> 26:21.040 know, um, we really don't know yet. So it, it may be a little early for, uh, for union calls, but I'm, 26:21.040 --> 26:26.000 I'm hoping that it may not be necessary at all that everyone will be able to, uh, in fact, 26:26.000 --> 26:31.440 I'm hoping that the marketplace will be so huge that we won't even need that. It'll just be 26:31.440 --> 26:36.080 a matter of picking the right projects and being in contact and being in the right communities. 26:36.880 --> 26:43.360 Um, the great example is, uh, is Jeff Smith. I mean, uh, I hope Jeff. Jeff, are you listening? I hope 26:43.360 --> 26:47.760 you're charging people for all this great work you're doing. Um, you know, Potcha was certainly 26:47.760 --> 26:52.480 paying Jeff for, uh, for the stuff that he does for the daily source code and, and for other, uh, 26:52.480 --> 26:58.160 other projects that that we've hired him for. Um, so I, you know, I think that we're going to find 26:58.160 --> 27:02.800 the marketplace is probably going to eliminate the need for that and we can just work on buy out contracts. 27:02.800 --> 27:08.880 But I don't know. I really don't know. So it's interesting to follow very closely. And, um, just, uh, 27:08.880 --> 27:13.120 two more things. Well, one, of course, the voicemail numbers. Uh, remember now tomorrow, 27:13.120 --> 27:17.360 we're doing a show with the lady Patricia. So if you have, uh, anything for her, uh, make sure that 27:17.360 --> 27:23.360 you get it in as soon as possible. Plus one, 201, 65, 65, 65, 7. That's our number in New Jersey 27:23.360 --> 27:28.080 and in London plus four, four, two, zero, seven, six, eight, one, three, seven, five, three. 27:28.880 --> 27:35.600 Righty, Amy Mack. My assur-size is making me burp. Last night when I came home, um, 27:36.640 --> 27:41.040 I saw that in my video channel that I have set up on Potcha Plus, which I believe is 27:41.040 --> 27:44.480 public. So you can, you can watch that channel as well. And essentially, it's the most recent 27:44.480 --> 27:50.480 episode of a number of podcasts that I've dropped into that channel, all video podcasts. The most 27:50.560 --> 27:56.720 recent, um, release from Ted, the technology engineering design conference, which is held every year. 27:56.720 --> 28:01.200 And, uh, what was it to think that was Monterey this year? Uh, there was an, and you know, 28:01.200 --> 28:06.400 this really amazing people, uh, speak at this conference. And it's fantastic that they're making 28:06.400 --> 28:12.080 this available for the public to watch. Completely sponsored by BMW, by the way, uh, which I think 28:12.080 --> 28:17.440 is done at a really classy, really nice fashion. And I think it's so, so worth the content that I'm 28:17.440 --> 28:24.160 getting to sit through, uh, the same BMW, uh, pre-roll spot and post-roll. It doesn't bother me at all. 28:26.160 --> 28:31.360 Was a demonstration of multi-touch computing. And I, and I, you have to watch this. I'll 28:31.360 --> 28:37.120 go, I'll put a link in the show notes to this. It's going to blow you away. This is the interface 28:37.120 --> 28:44.880 I want for my, for every single computer I use from now on. The idea being, I'll just kind of 28:44.960 --> 28:51.600 try to explain it. But you have to see it to believe it. Imagine, um, um, a large flat screen about 28:51.600 --> 28:57.840 the size of, I don't know, two place mats. And, you know, where if, if you have a, um, if you have a, 28:59.840 --> 29:07.120 a pen-based computer, like a, uh, what do they call those things? Notebook, not crap, tablet. There you go. 29:08.400 --> 29:12.240 It'll take one touch point. And that touch point is either going to be your mouse or it's going to 29:12.240 --> 29:18.640 be a brush stroke or it's going to be, uh, uh, uh, uh, a pen stroke, something like something like this. 29:18.640 --> 29:23.440 But multi-touch, which apparently is not all that new that of technology, it's just the processing 29:23.440 --> 29:27.680 speed is now quick enough to actually do something with it. With multi-touch, you can actually, 29:27.680 --> 29:32.160 you know, put any number of pressure points onto this screen, which is kind of at a, I don't 29:32.160 --> 29:37.360 like a 45 degree angle in front of the, the person who is demonstrating it. So if you put, you know, 29:37.360 --> 29:41.520 all your fingertips, tops down, then all those, your fingertips, all the fingertips would, 29:41.920 --> 29:48.160 would actually do something on the screen pressure sensitive as well. So he was showing some very basic 29:48.160 --> 29:53.760 stuff like, um, uh, a lava lamp, uh, and you're actually looking at the screen, okay? So that, 29:53.760 --> 29:58.000 so you're, you're interacting with the screen at the same time, which, of course, is cool because 29:58.000 --> 30:02.800 multiple people could be interacting with the screen. And that was just a warm-up, then he showed 30:02.800 --> 30:08.880 what you could do with pictures. And it was like, it was literally like rummaging through pictures, 30:08.880 --> 30:13.520 but really doing it, you know, on, on your desktop and arranging them. And, uh, oh, let me, 30:13.520 --> 30:19.040 let me make this one bigger and let me move the table top a little bit. It, it was, it totally just 30:19.040 --> 30:23.040 blew my mind. And I don't know how far we are from application. I mean, this is how I want 30:23.040 --> 30:29.280 cast blaster to work, man. Imagine I could be touching multiple faders and, and, and buttons, 30:29.280 --> 30:34.720 and it would be responding in real time while I'm looking at the actual, at the actual screen 30:35.040 --> 30:40.320 where I'm making these commands, it goes so far beyond the mouse and keyboard. And, of course, 30:40.320 --> 30:44.240 you can render a keyboard right there on the screen. And by the way, make the keyboard bigger, 30:44.240 --> 30:49.200 smaller, change the keys around, um, it'll blow you away. That is something I want you to go to 30:49.200 --> 30:55.680 the show, and let's more check it out, because it is, uh, it's astounding. And then last night, 30:55.680 --> 31:01.120 uh, after that, as I was rummaging through the most recent shows, um, then I wanted to catch up on, 31:01.120 --> 31:07.040 I, uh, heard, uh, the latest from Transdance. This is a Candace Loopers from Band Tracks. 31:07.040 --> 31:12.640 It's got a new show on the pod show, Transdance.podshow.com. It's actually Transdance. 31:12.640 --> 31:17.920 That's good. Just see the link in the show notes.
