Today I decided to let the cat out of the bag and talk a little about the vision and work going on behind the scenes, with The Podcast Connect Network. Looking for Partners, so make sure you drop us a line if you want to get aboard the train. [PodcastConnect.com] partner@podcastconnect.com
MyMD.com has a unique idea, medicine via email, IM, and video chat. In the past, the company's doctors had talked with patients over the phone, but now MyMD is giving 1,000 of its top member doctors iBooks and iSight cameras, hoping they will be able to do some of their consulting via video conference.

Apache server software has been steadily increasing in popularity this year. When you hear someone talk about Apache, you assume they have a Unix-flavored server, but as of late, many folks are using Apache on their Windows machines instead of IIS.

I upgraded one of my network file servers, yesterday. I replaced a hard disk that was setting off occasional error notices, and, while while I was at it, I replaced the current operating system (Mandrake Community 10.1) with Knoppix 3.7. Knoppix is the Linux distribution that I use in class to demonstrate how simple Linux is to use, because Knoppix is a fully-functional operating system with common applications that can boot from a single CD.

Starting today, many users of new, unregistered copies of Microsoft Windows will have to make a phone call in order to activate the software's license.

How would you like to have the power to write about any company you liked at put the spin on it in a way that made them look like the only Podcasting company in the whole world. This smells of journalistic abuse. Great analysis of the article here. [www.thetwowayweb.com]
I have been watching the press focus in on a handful of podcasters it helps when they all keep there circle pretty closed and only talk about one another. Lately I have been digging around in the mires of the podcasting directories and am finding all kinds of Podcast that rock my world. Light bulbs always burn the brightest before
