Google Calendar too restrictive?
I got this email from Stuart today:
Anyway I just wanted to mention that using Google Calender as the only
way of viewing the recording schedule is very restrictive – everyone who
wants to view the schedule needs a Google account – Some of us (well me
at least) are not interested in feeding the Google world domination
monster – could there be an alternative method of posting the schedule
for Luddites like myself?
I’ve been waiting to be able to do this in Google because I figured it would become the standard and it’s free, so everyone can play. But I’m open to any other ideas. Any suggestions for how I put the schedule up in ways that people who don’t use Google can view?
Get Yourself “Toon’d” at 2nME.com
My old buddy from Microsoft Glenn Vassallo finally launched his cartoon production site 2nME yesterday! This is a service that allows you to get a cartoon drawn up of yourself, which you can use on your blog, in your Skype ID, … on your fake ID…. etc. All TOONs are completely hand drawn, by a professional artist, using a Wacom tablet. Check out the photo in the middle of the boxes on the front page. Look familiar? This should be a popular service. It’s only USD$29.
Let’s Talk About Industrial Relations
For gdayworld 173 (scheduled for Dec 8), I really want to talk about the new Industrial Relations laws in Australia. I’d love to talk to young people who are working under them and to employers. If you know of anyone who fits one of those descriptions and might be interested in chatting with me, please let me know! And you can join in the show by posting your details HERE.
DIGG doubles my numbers
As some of you may have noticed, and as I mentioned on the show today, we had some slight “issues” with the TPN servers in the last 24 hours, mostly because this post I did last night got hit by DIGG. We got slammed. I did the same traffic to G’Day World in one 24 hour period that I normally get in a month. And we aren’t currently geared up for that kind of attention. So congrats to Dave Gray for creating a real story! If you guys aren’t already listening to Dave’s GlobalGeek podcast, you should be.
I believe this is called ‘The Digg Effect”.
