G’DAY WORLD #274 – On Fidel Castro, Second Life, Crazy Christians and Scouta

Richard Giles and I chat about some things that have been on my mind lately, including:

  • How Christians who justify Yahweh’s kill count in the Old Testament just prove my point that they are crazy and dangerous.
  • Some history on the Bhagavad Gita
  • WIRED: How Madison Avenue Is Wasting Millions on a Deserted Second Life
  • Some history on Fidel Castro If you want a quick overview on why the US hates Castro, watch this video.
  • Rich is going to be on the Boing Boing “Rule The Web” podcast this week
  • And “G’Day World” is on the first page of Google results for the search term “G’Day”! Thanks for the tipoff Molly! I knew you’d come in useful for something someday!
  • Become part of the G’Day World conversation.

    I’ve created a couple of groups inside Second Life. You can now add yourself to the following groups:

  • Friends Of G’Day World
  • MODM
  • The Podcast Network
  • If I knew how to link directly to those groups from here, I would. But I don’t. So for now you just need to search for them in-world. Or you can add “Cameron Switchblade” to your friends and check out the groups I belong to.

    If you’re a member of Facebook, you can ADD ME AS A FRIEND and then ADD YOURSELF TO THE G’DAY WORLD GROUP.

    Add me to your Twitter account.

    Do me a solid and digg the show.

    1. Gah!! Sorry Minh. I’ve had trouble with that one. When I change the title in iTunes it actually seems to change the file name which isn’t what I want it to do at all. And as the title works fine for me in iTunes, it’s hard to figure out why you are having problems. Doesn’t the RSS feed insert the title?

    2. I’ve been spending parts of this weekend moving to mediamonkey as i’m sick of itunes hijacking my files. A sound engineer friend recommended mediamonkey so it can’t be too bad. (mediamonkey.com)

    3. Right, thats what I was saying, glad you agree Cam! Seeings you have the time I will make the effort this week to add something interesting. I was going to test the waters and suggest you wheren’t Wikipedia worthy but I don’t know how to do it.

      Rich: Any thought of plugging into Last FM to get information for Scouta? I have an iRiver and have Rockbox OpenSource OS on it and it supports LastFM and its formats but not iTunes.

      Just a thought.

    4. hehehe No offence, but your pronunciation of Bhagavat Gita and other names was very funny! Gave me a good chuckle. 😛
      (You got Kurukshetra tho! well done)

      Meanwhile, I don’t know if you know, but they went and recreated the Mahabharat as a tv series sometime ago. Here’s a clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2e6HoGbMUTM – it was entertaining viewing as I remember it
