I was doing Morning Coffee Notes. Adam Curry was doing Daily Source Code. Together, we were doing the Trade Secrets podcast. Permanent link to this item in the archive.

Dave Slusher, Steve Gillmor, IT Conversations, Dawn and Drew, Tony Kahn at WGBH, Engadget. Permanent link to this item in the archive.

If you have questions or comments, you can post them here. Permanent link to this item in the archive.

PS: Another reason I like it is this is a non-infringing use of BitTorrent. We need more of those to protect this excellent distributed technology.  Permanent link to this item in the archive.
