The infamous David Brent Microsoft training video

Sunday, August 27th, 2006

Wow, I’m so glad this made it online! I remember catching these a few years ago when the MSFT UK office first brought them out. They were initially available on the MSFT Intranet but then, a day later, they disappeared. Someone has uploaded them onto Google Video. They are definitely worth a watch.

My review of Clerks ll and Kevin Smith’s Q&A

Saturday, August 26th, 2006

Last night (Friday, 25 August 2006) I had the extreme pleasure of attending the Melbourne premiere of Kevin Smith’s new film "Clerks II" followed by a three hour Q & A with Smith himself. The Astor Theatre was packed full of devoted fans who laughed their asses off throughout the entire film and then laughed [...]

Gotta love Scoble. Check out the T-Shirt he’s wearing. I guess this means we’ll see b5 media and podTech merging in the near future? (Thanks to TPN’s Patrick O’Keefe for pointing out the photo).

Evan Williams’ podcasting round-up ignores TPN

Thursday, August 24th, 2006

b5 Media’s Duncan Riley (no relation) just pointed me to Evan Williams’ recently post on a list of podcast sites, ranked by Alexa ranking. Evan somehow managed to completely ignore TPN. Perhaps he’s never heard of us. I’ll have to get my marketing team to send him a parcel of flowers or something.
For the [...]

It’s been a month since I’ve been able to do a show with Father Bob Maguire but I managed to squeeze one in tonight and it was a ripper.

Don’t Download This Song

Thursday, August 24th, 2006

Have you seen this new track by Weird Al (does this guy ever die??) - Don’t Download This Song? It’s pretty naff but diggity. TPN’s Daniel K has the details over on Box Office Weekly. Dan’s also running some funny commentary about Tom Cruise’s kick in the ass by Sumner Redstone and wants to know  [...]

Whew!

Thursday, August 17th, 2006

I’m exhausted. Damn it’s been busy. I’ll spare you the gory details, but I’m working on a bunch of projects at the moment, from capital raising for TPN, through to some podcast consulting projects, software consulting stuff, and other stuff I just can’t talk about. Fair to say I’ve got more plates spinning than I [...]
