No Podcast This Week

In observance of Lent, I will not be producing a Deantastic Tech Podcast this week.

For continuing technology, Web, and blogging coverage, please visit www.deantastic.com. Regular podcast programming is expected to resume next week. Thanks!

Deantastic Tech Podcast Episode 01

The pilot episode of Deantastic Podcast is here!

Before we go any further, let me just say this: this is one crappy episode in terms of audio quality. I'm still learning the ropes of Adobe Audition and podcasting in general and I'm working with a basic 3.5-mm omnidirectional microphone. Apologies for the quality. I promise I'll get better in future episodes.

It's also ridiculously short—five minutes for chrissake! I worked entirely off a script here. As soon as I get the hang of it, expect the podcast's runtime to lengthen.

So, anyway, in this episode of the Deantastic Tech Podcast:

• Skype for the iPhone. Skype finally releases a client for the iPhone platform.


• Conficker Worm. D-Day came and went without anything really big happening. So is the Conficker scare over?


• Microsoft Encarta shuts down. Didn't see that coming.


• What the Internets did for April Fools'. Google has CADIE, The Guardian goes Twitter, Plurk goes Bitter.
