Tech podcasting versus tech YouTubing versus tech TikToking with Tarek Madany Mamlouk

Here’s to the holes in your CV

From my earliest days of work, I was warned about an affliction that might threaten my career. This affliction was known as the hole in the CV or the gap in the résumé. Anyone who contracted this dreaded disease, I was told, would likely never get a decent job again. As a coder in my early twenties, I calculated the consequences of this admonition. If I were to be allowed no gaps in my résumé, then I’d have to spend my entire life working. I’d be coding every day, every year, every decade until I dropped dead. It was as if I were being warned never to do anything interesting with my life. So I did what any self-respecting twenty-something would do. I quit. I left my decent job as a coder and didn’t get another one. I wrote a book. I went to Antarctica. I’ve spent the decades since peppering my CV with as many holes as I possibly can. Here’s how one technology has entrenched the idea of job after job after job, and how another technology promises to explode that convention. — The technology that has entrenched the idea of job after job after job is, of course, LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/]. The technology promises to explode that convention is Polywork [https://www.polywork.com/]. The many things I’m working on include Open Web Mind [https://www.openwebmind.com/], Tangled Web [https://tangledweb.media/], The Last Theory [https://lasttheory.com/], The Quit Work Project [https://quitworkproject.com/], things made thinkable [https://www.thingsmadethinkable.com/] and goodwoodglobes [https://goodwoodglobes.com/].

Why it’s important to be open in tech podcasting with Martin Feld

Martin Feld believes in RSS, the protocol for getting podcasts out there, so much that he used the letters RSS to name his Really Specific Stories [https://www.rsspod.net/] podcast. Why? Because RSS is open. No one controls it. Anyone can put out a podcast on RSS. In our short conversation, Martin and I talk about tech podcasting, touching on his research into how it fits into the media landscape, and how fandom and persona influence how people show up on podcasts. Above all, we discuss why it’s so important that podcasting remain open. You can find Martin’s podcasts Hemispheric Views at hemisphericviews.com [https://hemisphericviews.com/] and Really Specific Stories at www.rsspod.net [https://www.rsspod.net/], and you can find out more about what Martin’s up to at martinfeld.info [https://martinfeld.info/] I release this podcast as a video too!

Pivot point

I’ve reached a pivot point with Tangled Web. I don’t quite know where I’m going to be taking it from here. Rather than decide in isolation, I thought I’d let you know what I’m thinking.
