My side of a news interview

How can I miss you when you won't go away?

This episode was recorded on October 1, 2004 [https://web.archive.org/web/20050214234816/http://secrets.scripting.com/2004/10/01]. Today's Trade Secrets is about everything of importance to the world today. The only thing we missed is Jon Stewart's outburst about the President's "group of folks" line. Group of folks? Group of folks?, Stewart raged. A group of folks is what you run into at the Olive Garden. The President was referring to Osama bin Laden and the group of worldwide terrorist... folks. Okay. At no extra cost, a few little soliloquys, nothing earth shaking, just little ones. And oh yea. Mt St Helens.

We always talk voip and have been trying different setups and applications. But inadvertantly, one of will say "we should be recording this" and I flip the switch. This morning Dave was up early and we recorded a podcast, where we talked about 'leakage', played some prince and finally got the sip-phone stuff working" Dave's notes on scripting.com [http://scripting.com/2004/09/28.html#When:8:05:26AM]: "In it Adam and I discuss the merits of Mac vs Windows. Now of course I'm getting (friendly) email from people suggesting that I get a Mac. I'll make a deal. If John Kerry wins I'll get a Mac." 36 minute podcast [https://s3.amazonaws.com/scripting.com/publicfolder/downloads/podcasts/2004/09/28/tsSep28.mp3].

Bloglines API and other topics

This episode was recorded on September 28, 2004 [http://scripting.com/2004/09/28.html]. "An audio blog post about the Bloglines API, the commons, fair compensation for centralized services, what's not fair." 14 minute podcast [https://s3.amazonaws.com/scripting.com/2024/10/02/cnSept28.mp3].

Frontier open source release

This episode was released on September 28, 2004 [http://scripting.com/2004/09/28.html] (recorded earlier). "Today's Morning Coffee Notes explains the open source release [http://kernel.scripting.com/2004/09/28#a20] of Frontier. Jeff Sandquist previewed the audio and said he had never understood what Frontier was before. It's good that this event which is probably one of the largest releases of open source code ever, may mean that more people appreciate this interesting and unique piece of software. Or it may be a time capsule, a message in a bottle, or a bridge to the future, and that would be fine too. One thing it's not is an attempt to boil the ocean, or a threat to your favorite scripting language, Web content system or HTTP server. Just trying to preserve a life's work of programming, so it doesn't end up lost or forgotten. Peace brother."

My side of a news interview

This episode was recorded on September 27, 2004. "I was interviewed today by a reporter on Yahoo's efforts in RSS. I gave them a pretty negative review. I didn't want to be misunderstood, so I did an audio recording [https://s3.amazonaws.com/mp3.morningcoffeenotes.com/rescued/cnSept27a.mp3] of what I said to the reporter, so you can get an idea of the thinking behind the soundbites that may be in the news article."
