Sally Shipman: one of my heroes

2007-05-30T10:41:00.000-07:00

Former Austin City councilmember Sally Shipman died this week. In college, I worked in her office and for her campaign. She taught me about being a good citizen and made me believe that politics can be practiced by people who believe in doing the right thing. I learned so much from her. She also tried to get me to dress better. At that she failed.

I'll have more to say about Sally on this week's show.

Lounging with the bloggers

2007-01-10T11:45:00.000-08:00

This is a rare blog entry for me. I don't usually make extensive text posts, but I'm without recording equipment at the moment (it gets heavy) and I'm right in the middle of the Macworld show floor. In fact, I'm sitting in the Microsoft Bloggers' Lounge. There, I've plugged my hosts, which is only fair, since I'm drinking their Diet Dr. Pepper and using their Internet connection.

Interestingly, and accidentally, too, Microsoft is the company that's offered me the most food at this show. I attended an MS press event last night and filled up on pot stickers and other delicacies, and now I'm swilling that rarest of commodities in San Francisco, my beloved Diet DP.

The Bloggers' Lunge is a mid-sized booth on the show floor, with big squashy chairs and couches, and tables with iMacs. There's a guy up front who asks you to sign in, and the place really isn't very crowded. No waiting for the iMacs. I can't say that's true in the press room, interestingly enough. Nor can I get so much as a glass of water in the press room, so this is the place to be.

Does it sound to you as if I'm totally gone on the freebies, expecting and exploiting the opportunity to flash my press pass? You'd be surprised. I do not have the schmoozing and scamming power (I got in trouble for using that word last night) of many of my colleagues. They come home with leather bags, iPod cases made from endangered species (OK, not really), and boxes of software. I usually score some party invites a few t-shirts, and a combination yo yo/pocket knife. I am a bad freebie filcher.

The show floor feels busy today, but not impassable. Only in the narrow aisles on the ends have I found myself sidestepping multiple large men with rolling bags, and groups of gawkers speaking in languages I do not understand. Here in "big booth" land, you can breathe, and you can hear the sounds of breaking glass part of some demo) mixed with the drone of hired guns trying to sell photo managment software, printers, and iPod docks.

But if you click the Photo Gallery link, and then look at page 5, you'll see me and the rest of the iPod/iTunes panel from the LA Podcasters/iProng booth at Podcast Expo. The photo did appear in the paper last Saturday. By the way, this panel will be posted on the iProng Radio feed later today.

Questions no one has asked (yet)

2006-09-27T23:50:00.000-07:00

Does anyone remember my old feature, "questions no one has asked"? I liked that one a lot, and I'll be trying to bring it back to the show in the coming weeks. For now though, it belongs here on the blog, because I sense an unspoken query out there in the wind. I sense it because I know that there are unanswered messages in the gmail box, and probably elsewhere. ;-)

Hey kids. I have a show planned for you, but I won't be able to put it out on the feed until tomorrow. I've been fiddling around with a new audio setup and I am so dang tired after a morning spent twisting knobs and redoing cables that I don't have the energy to record. If you're looking for something to do while you wait, why not sign up for the Trypod Network newsletter, or rate Shelly's Podcast on Yahoo Podcasts? Just scroll down to find out how.

I've never purchased an Apple product on the first day it was available...until yesterday. I'm typing on my new white MacBook right now. I'm traveling soon, so I won't be able to do a formal review for awhile. But since I know you're dying to hear about the MacBook, I'm planning a little recording project with friends that I hope you'll like. Watch the blog and the podcast feed for more.

Check it out for thoughts on the keynote, and a few obscure show highlights. (Can there be an obscure highlight? Hmm.)

For a more cogent and family-friendly response, I refer you to this post from Jeff Bishop. He's absolutely right.

"Today is Louis Braille’s birthday and in celebration of that fact Google has made their logo done up in Braille characters. OK Google, nice, but why don’t you actually do something useful like fix your visual verification issues for blind computer users, now that would be a nice gift. Don’t worry, it won’t happen. I am afraid it is going to take court action to get Google to move. I sincerely hope I am wrong."
