The Weekly Rewind

Another week, another dollar. Ok so that’s not the exact saying but you get the idea. It’s been quite a packed and interesting few days; there’s much to report and reflect on, and I hope you’ll find some it interesting. So here we go:

Monday we recorded and streamed Linux Outlaws episode 83. Nothing unusual about that you might say but you’d be wrong. It was the first time we did live video broadcasting from both ends, a “double-ender” if you will; regular podcast listeners will get that joke. It’s fun doing the show live but there’s a definite adjustment with the live element because it’s easy to get distracted while talking in IRC, talking (audibly), getting music lined up to play next and also monitoring the video as it goes out. We held it together well I thought and everyone who participated said they enjoyed, so that’s the main thing. If you’d like to join us it’s Monday evenings over at linuxoutlaws.com/live and you’re more than welcome. We don’t have a set time at the moment but we’re working on that, so it’s easier for people to plan around. Last time it was 7pm in the UK and it will usually be something similar. Come see us and for the first time ever, I do actually mean see us.

I mentioned our new poster campaign and also wrote a quick post on the Outlaws blog. It basically involves downloading the PDF, printing one off and sticking it up somewhere for us. If you’d like to help out with that we’d both really appreciate it. Thank you! Read the rest of this entry »
