Whew. What a day. I've been on Skype so much today I think these headphones have become grafted to my ears and my wife Belinda thinks I'm having an affair with Mick. Ugh. What a thought.
Today, for your listening pleasure, we interviewed:
- Marc Orchant from tabletpc.weblogsinc.com and office.weblogsinc.com. Marc is a great guy, very knowledgable and affable and shared with us his likes and dislikes about Microsoft Office, the Tablet PC, and gave us some insights into Jason Calacanis' blogging empire. He also promised to help us get Calacanis on the show!
- Frank Arrigo from Microsoft Australia. Frank is a 13-year veteran of Microsoft and has done so many cool things in his time with the company that it is hard to believe he has only lived one lifetime. Frank is easily the most loved and universally adored of the Microsoft managers in Australia and I know his team would all take a bullet for him. He is also responsible for introducing Mick and I, so you can blame him for that.
- Steve Rubel from Micro Persuasion. Steve was fantastic, talking through his ideas on how PR professionals should be using blogs, for good and for evil (only kidding 'bout the evil part). He was a very good sport, as we started quite early his time and the Skype connection we had SUCKED BIG TIME, so we were speaking over each other, lots of lag, etc. We'll try hard to clean that up in post.
- Finally, we were interviewed (for something different) by Duncan Riley from Blog Herald. Duncan was nice enough to pretend that anyone cares what we think, and we played along. Kind of.
One last request. I noticed tonight that our GoogleRank for "podcasting" or "podcast" and "Australia" really BLOWS. Anything you can do to use those words when you link to our show would be much appreciated. How else will the scum-sucking 4th Estate that we so despise and scorn be able to find us when they want to invite us onto "This Is Your Life"??
I have to say, getting to spend four hours today talking with the above people is pretty damn cool. What other job do you get where a dumbass like myself gets to hangout with such cool, smart, good-looking people?




Beside the fact that your query does not work
Lowercase "or" was ignored. Try "OR" to search for either of two terms. [details]
The "AND" operator is unnecessary -- we include all search terms by default. [details]
[(podcast OR podcasting) australia would be better]
people who search with () and or usually know you already.
The more common people usually search for
podcast from australia
australian podcast
[in case they don't know what they do and mispell it "australien podcast" - i took care of that *hust*]
At least that is what I can see from my logfiles for german podcast and I doubt it will be so much different in your case.
For the special people, it is "podcast down under". The only search you really suck at is "G'day!"
btw - it might be a good idea to put such request on the page itself, so linkbacks to the desperate guys are addressed at the wished domain and not at this. ;o)
