   Oh shit, Madge is a hoax

   We listened to the latest Yeast Radio podcast, and laughed until we realized it was all an act. Madge is not at all what he or she appears to be. I looked over at Adam and asked how he felt about this. ‘Not good.’ Then he asked how I felt, and I said I had repped Madge as being something other…

   Where did the time go?

   It’s been over a month since the last Trade Secrets, what with Adam’s move and bandwidth situation, and my persistent cold and laryngitis, well, it’s been hard to get it together. Even so the plan for our new venture is taking shape. In this TS, we talk about the four sides to the puzzle, Content...

   A homo-continental Trade Secrets!

   Adam, Steve Gillmor and I review the third BloggerCon, all in the same room at Rickey’s Hyatt in Palo Alto. The sound quality is mostly good, if the content is suprisingly mundane. Blah blah blah blah blah blah BloggerCon.

   Did Edwards cop a feel under the table?

   Is Dick Cheney as sexy as he looks? Did Cheney win the debate? Did we actually play another Prince song in today’s Trade Secrets? The answer to at least one of these questions is yes!

   Will Kerry win the Presidency so Dave gets a Mac?

   A shocking truth is revealed in today’s Trade Secrets podcast. It’s true. If John Kerry wins the election I’ll get a Mac. Let the record show it’s no longer in doubt. I may be a Mac user before the year is out. Sound quality is somewhat improved this time. I don’t sound like I’ve had my mouth…

   How can I miss you when you won't go away?

   Today’s Trade Secrets is about everything of importance to the world today. The only thing we missed is Jon Stewart’s outburst about the President’s ‘group of folks’ line. Group of folks? Group of folks?, Stewart raged. A group of folks is what you run into at the Olive Garden. The President was...

    Leakage

    I’ve learned over the past weeks to always have the audio recording setup ready when Dave and I chat. We always talk voip and have been trying different setups and applications. But inadvertantly, one of will say ‘we should be recording this’ and I flip the switch. This morning Dave was up early...

    Trade Secrets September 25 2004

    Earlier this evening (my time) Dave suggested we try out skype in anticipation of our next TS podcast. It turned into an episode filled with brainfarts, laughter and 2 geeks trying to configure a new (non-skype) voip application.

    Welcome to Trade Secrets!

    We did our first show today, after three takes, it was a bit of a burnout, but we’re rolling now. Now I have to get the RSS 2.0 feed configured, even though Manila doesn’t have direct support for enclosures. (Postscript: Got it done. Now I have to do the user interface, but the backend part…
