Starting a Weekly Show
Filed under: Cross-posted (Techrights)
Summary: TechBytes is a new audiocast we’ll start running shortly
AVING arranged a sort of partnership between OpenBytes and Techrights we are proud to announce TechBytes (yes, it’s a combination or fusion of names). What is it? It’s a podcast, but we call it audiocast because “pod” is falsely associated with Apple.
Start date: November 2010
Recurrence: Weekly (hopefully, depending on our daytime jobs)
Slogan: “No episode number, this isn’t a soap opera”
On the show we plan to bring many people, including regulars of OpenBytes and Techrights. We have already arranged and resolved some of the technical issues, addressed some needs, and we received permission for use of a theme song. The show will be available in free formats such as Ogg (maybe more later).
This ought to be a lot of fun and help put a friendly face on folks who are sometimes wrongly perceived as angry and rantsy because text-only communication (words alone) leaves out most of one’s message. If any of our regular contributors or readers wishes to join, let us know in IRC or in the comments section below. It is supposed to be an open forum and we want to have as many guests as possible.
