Sometimes in life we are faced with hard decisions that we never wish to make, but sometimes it becomes unavoidable. Today I announced at 808Talk (Episode 119) that next week show 120 would be the last for me.

Hurricane Flossie Spares Hawaii - Wednesday, August 15, 2007
Well, I'm happy to report that Hurricane Flossie, now Tropical Storm Flossie, is safely passing over Hawaii and not causing any severe weather conditions.

TwitterGram And Twit O'Gram Player - Wednesday, June 27, 2007
Dave Winer has merged podcasting and Twitter into what he calls TwitterGram. The whole concept is that you create an audio or short podcast snippet, upload it to TwitterGram and then post that URL to Twitter.

Day Of Silence? So Listen To A Podcast! - Tuesday, June 26, 2007
Day of Silence equals day of podcasts. Well today is the talked about "Day of Silence" for webcasters of Internet radio. Due to an announcement earlier this year of new royalty rates for webcasting traditionally licensed music by the United States Copyright Royalty Board, a unified effort to draw attention to this impending royalty rate increase that, if implemented, would lead to the virtual shutdown of this country's Internet radio industry, is underway today. The rate hike, to be effective from 2006 to 2010, could...
