Podcasting in Focus

Here's a gallery of shots of the radio in the dashboard in my rental2005 Ford Focus. They're of podcasts that I copied to a CD and shoved into the CD slot, which says "mp3" underneath. The player can't navigate (ff/rw) inside a file, but skips between files with the "seek" buttons. But it remembers where I'm listening in the file when I turn it off or switch to AM or FM.

Thought it would be interesting to show how G'Day World, Evil Genius Chronicles, Daily Source Code, Trade Secrets, IT Conversations and other podcast show titles look on the radio's static read-out.

Modern eyes-ing

I have lots of photo albums on the Web — such as this and this and this and this. None of them have tags, and none were syndicated in the first place. So, they're invisible in Technorati tag searches like this one. So I'm wondering out loud how I might fix that. "Put them on Flickr" (good as it is) isn't the answer. There are too many of them, and I'd like to keep them on my own server, at the link paths they already have.

I can gang-edit a lot of the html with a text editor, so I'm thinking about what I might add to the html in each subdirectory. Or... something.

Plawg on

Denise Howell's latest podcast.

Note to selves

I miss Chrisopher Lydon's interviews. BopNotes is cool (and much appreciated), but we need Chris podcasting again.

Don't turn around

It's about showing more members of Congress that the hot breath of the blogosphere is on their backs. That's from Micah Sifry, of Personal Democracy, in the Washington Post.

Just checked. It's true.

o fuck, it's february.
