A Day in Paradise

Yet another podcast update! Greetings to our friends over at podcasts.yahoo.com… Keep downloading and stay subscribed!

There are a couple audio glitches in this one, but I’m too lazy to fix them up now. I’m going to get this process down one of these days, I’m just playing with it for now

Happy Saturday! After all my rants I bring you some Chillout Music which I guarantee you have never heard before (OK, if you have heard them you can get your money back).

The first song was emailed to me by Helgi þormar. The song is sung by Mune and is called “At Last”. As far as I know it was done as part of a University project. A great sound.

The second piece was produced by Sonic Sicht a DJ/Producer/Linux freak who I had the pleasure doing some work with during my brief stay in Uganda. Work meaning trashing a hard drive with an install of the ill-fated Corel Linux.

The songs are interspersed with a quote from George Carlin.

Quick review on Teeth of the Tiger followed by an update on other books you shouldn’t read…

Get it here!

And you gotta listen to the VERY end!

PS. the book that sucked was Digital Fortress… also vote and comment over on Podcast Alley

Before listening to my lastest podcast be warned that the starting song contains explicit lyrics, and the following “quick rant” (you’ll get it after listening to it) contains a fair amount of Bush/neo-con bashing.

Songs by Legendary K.O. and Dave Mendoza, once I get all my servers sorted out I’ll mirror the music I play. Right now, I’m still leaching off good friends because I don’t want to disrupt my email service.

You know, I think I might I have said “Notorius K.O.” in my podcast… Oh well, as you can see I’m not that big a hip-hop fan, but this song is spot on.

Enjoy

PS. Great… so much for not doing show notes… I wanted to talk about German elections. I took my two kids out a couple weeks ago on a Saturday during peak campaigning hours, and SPD were the only party which gave us helium balloons. Pro 7 gave us HUGE bags of gummy bears, but unfortunatly it doesn’t look like they are running for anything. CDU gave us really crappy balloons, and the Green party just ignored us. Yes the guy from SPD was really nice, we chatted for a while and he left us with a couple really nice balloons plus gave me a couple spares for when we get home. He must have had kids himself.

The balloons were great, we don’t like bringing balloons home with us so the kids enjoy “setting them free” before getting in the car and then watching them for as long as we can see them. We must have watched these ones for a good 5-7 minutes. So all that to say VOTE SPD!

This one is about as random as it gets… I need to make notes before I start so that I don’t rant and hit all the topics. Maybe I’d do that if I was serious about it.

No music this time, I’m in the process of moving servers, and when I do I’ll get all this in gear. Also am working on a new look for the blog… don’t know when that is going to happen

I encoded this at 64 kbps, it’s just talking so there is no reason why it should be any higher. It’s totally understandable, but 15 minutes is only 8mb.

/me pokes the good people at pro-php podcast!

“Show” here!

OK, I don’t know why I haven’t posted this yet… but it’s my “newest” audio blog post. I didn’t realize that I hadn’t posted it, but was just listening to some tunes and remembered that I never finished this.

So here you are! Aaron’s super cool podcast/audioblog-thingy 004!

If you haven’t yet figured out how to listen to it from my RSS feed you can get the file here.

In this issue I give up and call the damn thing a podcast… very random, PHP, database object persistance, dvd-ripping (yes it _really_ is for backup purposes), phpmag vs. php|arch.

And talked a bit more about that xml format that I’ve been ranting about recently.

Note: If you can’t figure out how to get the enclosure out of the feed it’s here

My Second audio blogpost… This one doesn’t have much interest to non technical people. Just me going on about a new description for podcasting. Because of popluar demand I don’t have any music this time.

FYI last week it was Mary Schnieder

This is just experimental, I don’t plan to start “podcasting” but was just fooling around… yes, I am a self important moron.

Listen here if you have the time and 9mb of extra bandwidth. I don’t know how this will work with RSS feeds, I added the enclosure tag to the WP “custom feilds” I’m not sure if that will do the trick.

Honestly I don’t care
