Cutting edge comedy from the BBC's Now Show. Found via Richard Sambrook's blog.
If you missed Marcus Brigstocke's comic rant against the Abrahamic faiths on The Now Show, you can find it here. It's seven minutes in total – but the first three are inspired. Strangely not as many complaints as one might have anticipated – that's the benefit of being even handed I guess….
I've been involved in a few podcasts recently.
The first one is a round table discussion with Paul Boag, Gary Marshall and Jeremy Keith for the .net magazine podcast. I've not heard this one yet, but I was calling with skype over a wireless network at work, so I cut out a bit.The topics for the show were,
- Web Design techniques you cannot live without
- Are their too many web conferences?
- Image copyright infringement
- Top web design mistakes of 2006
- SPAM prevention techniques
You can listen to the mp3 file here or subscribe to the show with this RSS feed.
I'm also on the Boagworld podcast this week as the expert on video formats online.
Ian Forrester from BBC backstage and the Geek Dinners joins us to talk about online video. He talks through the different formats available (quicktime, real player, windows media and flash) as well as the different delivery mechanisms (steaming, download and progressive download).
I'm on about 28mins from the end and the audio level is scary. You can listen to the mp3 directly here or subscribe to the show here. Please note, I did record one copy about using Mp3 and Ogg streaming using shoutcast and icecast but it got too long and decided to keep it very simple and quick (if you can call 6mins quick). I also made
a joke about tubes and the straw dripping but deleted that one too.
I've attached the .net magazine podcast, so enjoy!
