*Refer to the “Exchange Ideas” segment of last show
** Look forward to “Kookaburra” all music is the exchange of ideas, which should be encouraged to [adapt]

”This whole copyright issue needs to be dealt with. Musicians are unaware of their rights, and they need to be able to cover themselves.” says the flautest Greg Ham.

Put your album up on Bandcamp and nominate a cost per song or per album. Make payment optional if you like.

- http://www.kickstarter.com/
A great way to finance a project. I’ve personally supported musos who have put up the recording of an album as a project. They nominate the amount they reckon it will cost to make and if they reach the goal by the nominated time then they get the money. If they don’t make the targeted amount they don’t receive the money.

Johanna Blakley

Copyright law’s grip on film, music and software barely touches the fashion industry … and fashion benefits in both innovation and sales, says Johanna Blakley. At TEDxUSC 2010, she talks about what all creative industries can learn from fashion’s free culture.

Dave, Mike and Kent get together for this week’s conversation.

Dave has a new headset (Plantronics DSP400). High fidelity ensues.

Mike has been preparing for The University of Adelaide’s Open
Day and enjoying Science
Alive.

Social media marketing for District
9,
complete with confiscation of cell phones. Tweets ensue.

The Newsome family’s trip to New Braunfels, and the Comal River. Cassidy is a daredevil.

The Palm Pre pulls an ET, and phones home. Outrage ensues.

Facebook and the happiness or lack thereof behind the walls. Kent sort of
defends Facebook. Pigs take flight.

Facebook buys Friendfeed. Slumber ensues.

Delicious founder rethinks sale to Yahoo. Is Delicious relevant anymore?
Dave shows A.Tinythread.Com to Mike and Kent. Are we seeing the rebirth of
the message board? Mike likes RSS and messy things, and finds the
in-between things wanting. Usability does not always define the experience.

RSS is wonderful, but does anyone care? Kent and Mike mourn the treatment
of RSS. Dave says RSS is the infrastructure, not so much the destination.

Are stand alone RSS readers dead? Kent says it’s about monetization and
Google’s big war chest full of free. Dave and Mike praise
NetNewsWire.
Mike likes the archival abilities.

Dave is looking at microphones. Various alternatives are discussed. SAMSON C01U, RODE Podcaster or BEHRINGER C1U. Samson get points for being social.

Kent and Dave talk about how to make everything
better.
They have many good ideas for developers to ignore in favor of another
useless sharing feature.

Profiles: Facebook, Google Profiles, or just a free range web page? Dave
and Kent explore Google Profiles. More on this next time.

Pre Microsoft DOS for sale on eBay. Kent misses DOS. Dave tells the story
of how Microsoft acquired DOS.

The problem with YouTube.
Another problem is the music labels. YouTube’s audio swapper is a somewhat
acceptable work-around.

Kids think outside the box. Maybe that’s why they are the innovators.
