The first part of the week was coming down from the Conference. The second part of the week for me was dominated by doing the podcast with Alan Ward.
I am using a new system called webinarjam which is based on Google Hangouts. Needless to say 20 minutes before we were due to start my PC crashed and I had to use my macbook.
So that put me on the wrong foot and I was a bit rubbish – Alan of course was superb and gave a really interesting interview.
I have also signed up to a new system (called Libsyn) for hosting the podcasts as feedburner is a bit limited, so I have also had to get my head around that – setting it up and changing my feed in iTunes etc.
Its a good system though with some interesting features – watch this space!
