Feedback on RawVoice from Last Podcast

On my last show I went into some details of things we have been doing at RawVoice. I made a comment in that dialogue about how I think many times we have been marginalized and second guessed in the space.

Music Industry Will Not Buy Into Apple Plan

I find it very hard to believe that the music industry would even consider allowing Apple to bundle into the price of an iPod unlimited music downloads for the life of the iPod. If they do pull this off though, the price of an iPod will go way up.

Journalists morphing into bloggers

An interesting post on Wired about the way journalism is changing in the face of new media. Not that unexpected a perspective from a magazine that has morphed into something more like a blog itself. The gist is essentially that news media is becoming more of a service than a product with the major news publications being more of a

One thing for sure is that if you are only following me on this blog, you are missing a very large portion of the conversation I am involved in on a daily basis.

Power for the future

It's been a very busy octane fueled week for me with a motor show and the F1 circus just winding up here in Melbourne (I hope I never have to choose between gadgets and cars!) One of the things that had me thinking this week was the number of "green" cars that were on show and the varieties of methods
