It's time to blow my own horn... and Leland's too.

Yes. I am stooping.. I know. But it must be done. It time to enter the wonderful world of netcasts and/or podcasts. One of the best on the internet is mine. :) The Leland and Joell Show features yours truly and Leland Klassen (among others) . Find the audio files (mp3's) and links on how to subscribe to the show and get new episodes automatically can be found here.



While you are at it my favourite podcast network is the Twit Network featuring gadget shows, round tables and techie stuff galore.

Mark Buchanan interview in the Wittenburg Door

Mark is a good old Baptist Union boy (woo hoo) and the Wittenburg Door is good old christian satire magazine (yes, Christian satire). Mark's latest book is about the Sabbath and it's called "the Rest of God". Enjoy!

New Firefox Coming Soon

The new Firefox 2.0 is out soon (probably Wednesday). Get an advance copy here.

-- Essential Additions for the Workplace Vocabulary:

1. BLAMESTORMING: Sitting around in a group, discussing why a deadline has missed or a project failed, and who was responsible.

2. SEAGULL MANAGER: A manager who flies in, makes a lot of noise, craps on everything, and then leaves.
