The power just came back on. For three grueling hours, a storm knocked out our electricity. Once the kids were in bed, Teresa and I had to find something to pass the time. Yes, the batteries on our laptops worked, but the DSL modem and the wireless router sadly don't have backup batteries, so unless I'm willing to spring for a UPS (Think "big power strip with a bigger backup battery.")--and I'm not--on these rare occasions, we have to rough it. read more »
If you just can't get enough of my voice, you can find me reading the audio version of the cover article of this month's (September 2007) Blogger & Podcaster Magazine. FYI, it's a lo-o-o-o-ong article, but informative. I did the voice for an article an issue or 2 before that, but my name's not attached to it, and it's a bit tough to find, but if you're a listener and happened to hear my voice on the article about Movable Type in July or August 2007, yes, that was me.
Recovering from a weekend of birthday parties, Dale and Teresa bring a bunch of iTunes-related stories, some gift ideas, and a great interview.

Teresa schools Dale at yet another Sudoku game. How does this one add up against the others?
Since our first promo was over 2 minutes, we've been asked for a 30-second spot, so we condensed it. It's basically the same promo, only abridged considerably. If you use this in your show, let us know so we can publicly thank you.

 September will bring an odd schedule, but we should still get at least three episodes out this month with some great guests! And for some reason, most of the tech news is about portable media this week. Welcome to the digital.

Interview
  This week, we're thrilled to have a fellow tech podcasting parent, TechTV veteran Megan Morrone from the Jumping Monkeys blog and podcast. And Megan, I found your old blog. Note: This interview was recorded August 28, 2007, so some of the comments need to be heard with that in mind (especially the iPod discussion). You can also hear the full uncut interview in the extras section of our site.
