Thanks to Lonely Bob for his continued underwriting support for Slashdot Review.
Welcome to two more FeedBlitz subscribers today. FeedBlitz is the email based distribution for Slashdot Review that makes it easy to introduce others to podcasting without involving the details of choosing a podcatcher client, subscribing, making sure that you are copied to the proper directory and then to your mobile device – be it iPod or various MP3 devices. After you sign up at the SDR site, each morning you will receive the current SDR page with links to the artist of the day and the built in Podtrac player that includes the day’s program and previous episodes as well. To introduce SDR others, just forward it like any other email. Fast, easy, and as they say on TV, affordable.
The family rounds of Christmas visiting in the DC area are complete and we returned to spring Cisco from his temporary kennel accomodations and begin round two of Holiday Cheer. I hope that your holiday travels and family plans are going well, and that you will be as blessed as we have been this holiday season.
Back on the original mobile mic today, and will probably stay that way for a few more days. I did have some encouraging news from Larry LaCost of Bourbonnais, IL who’s been in direct contact with the manufacturer of the new mic that I was trying earlier in the week. We are both convinced that the issue is “headspace and timing”, not a product problem ,and that once I get on track we’ll be able to put out a much better quality audio package.A Frappr note from Steven Hatch – West Orange NJ : offering thanks for “fodder for the commute”. Well, that is true.
Reminds me of a listener comment that summarized the program almost a year ago. : “News from Slashdot read by some Southern guy”
Concise and accurate.

A new addition to the site at SDR.com , an array of MobilCast Qualified handsets. The engineers at Melodeo run handsets through the mill and qualify them for the MobilCast service. The list changes every few days, as Sony Ericsson and Nokia enhance and obsolete various model numbers. I’ll try to keep it up to date.
Thanks to Pete Murry of Laporte PA for a video clip that he posted as his photo on the Frappr page. Right next to Rob’s dignified photo. If you are a fan of the TV show NCIS, this is a DiNozo moment from the animal world. It is worth the trip to the page, watch the penguin carefully.
About a year ago I found a great WGBH Boston TV program that I have linked before about the music business called “The Way the Music Died” If you want to really understand why indy music is a part of SDR, take time to stream the program on the site.
Steve Holden, always on the alert, has forwarded a link for a snow blower that should be featured on an entire episode of Home Improvement. Binford Manufacturing would love this one: Bona Fide designed from the ground up around a big block Chevy V-8 : The manufacturer’s quote “.you¹ll never get bored with the job as the 454 cubic inch big block Chevrolet V8 produces 412 horsepower, 430 foot pounds of torque and can throw snow 50 feet at just 3500 rpm . Plus heated grips and turns on a dime. Links and a photo on the site for those interested. Still can’t figure out how a podcaster in San Diego has such in depth knowledge..
