A few programming notes this week from the Tech Podcast Network .
As you know, the brief pause and station ID at mid program is for those listeners joining us through the 24/7 audio stream from Techpodcasts.com . A number of the TPN shows are to be found there. Of course there is going to be some repetition since some shows appear twice a week or weekly – but it’s a good way to sample the content on TPN and discover new shows from TPN Affiliates or Members.
You may not be familiar with a new member – the Antipodean Podcast - from, as you would expect Australia. Tech and Science news – in addition to updates on the political and regualatory climate in the land of Oz. Also old friends come back in new monikers. I am not exactly sure what prompted the change from the Braytech podcast to the simple and straightforward BO Radio podcast. Bwana McCall does stake out his own domain at Bwana.org – and once you know that BO Radio makes perfect sense. The old RSS still works on re-direct. Bwana lives in a pretty upscale neighborhood – when his local high school has a note about installing 3000 iBooks in less than three days.
Congrats to co-host Annette Thomson on a day job early morning server cut-over at 7:00AM this past Saturday. It that went so well it would qualify as a non-event. She did share the secret – Just work til midnight for two weeks prior, and success, too, can be yours.

The book that I spoke about on 3/2 is called “Amusing Ourselves to Death” .
The preface to the book gives a good idea of the basic premise, and specific comments on television. (Remember, this was in the early 1980′s .. the hundred channel universe was not yet revealed )
A more lengthy summary is found at WikiPedia.
Interactive Touchscreen Demo: a video of a really cool touchscreen interface – about ten times better than the Bill Gates demo at CES. Hard to describe, about three minutes long.
