iPodding

Christopher L. Filkins

Matt Haughey has my concerns down cold. When I began reading Dave's exhortations on iPodding my immediate concern was bandwidth. As attractive as this sounds, for those of us with radio voices, the end result is huge bandwidth charges. I can support 100 gigabytes per month. How many can say that?

Do you know of anyone who's applied BitTorrent to this problem? It seems like an obvious and workable solution, perhaps if aggregators build-in the BT client functionality.

It's a small world 'o crap, after all: My current favorite Salon blog is World o' Crap. Basically, it's hilarious. It goes after the righties in power without the usual liberal deference and nuance-balancing. Instead, the author offers a full-throated in-your-face style suitable for radio. Sign her up quick!

War of the worlds: We are the alien overlords. I am reading in the New York Times our detailed plans for laying seige of cities in Iraq. We will attempt to control the minds of the inhabitants (demoralizing the fighters, calming the civilians), and systematically in our now infinitely superior ways conquer each city.... ()
Making a conference bloggable: So, what does it take to make a conference bloggable? That is, what are the usual arrangements required? Is it a matter of one IP address, a DHCP hub, one or more airport or linksys type wireless base stations, and that's it? Or am I overlooking a layer of complexity? This... (Weblog Concepts)
