Audio from Odeo…

by Frank Paynter on July 16, 2006

Recorded with the world’s suckiest microphone… my 16 seconds of fame.

My recording may be akin to Beavis and Butthead playing Bell and Watson, but all-in-all I think Odeo is simple to use and very flexible. I’m not exactly a high tech weenie, but the fact is, I dug around, found an old beige mic from some long dead PC, plugged it in, recorded and posted a brief audio file in a few minutes. While horsing around I saw that Odeo also supports telephone file creation, meaning that I can probably get a better recording off the cell than I can off this funky dixie cup on a string arrangement. Quite exciting really, and I owe it all to pouty Mike Arrington of TechHunch who thought he’d be snarky about Odeo today.

Odeo Buzz

by Frank Paynter on July 16, 2006

There hasn’t been enough Odeo buzz. The only thing I’ve heard about it in months is Mike Arrington’s silliness today, and that was just mean, not substantive. But what do you expect from a core values pout-meister like Mike?

I’m going to see if I can find a microphone somewhere and blog the Star Spangled Banner of something.

I also realize that even as i’m writing this blogpost, its reading will be out of my control, but the reality is that i’ll still – as author [...]

Core Values…

July 16, 2006

Denise Howell and Reed Smith have parted ways. But she took her chair with her. When I read Denise’s post yesterday, I thought I would just sit with the information and read it again before mulling it over here, publicly. Ernie the Attorney zeroed in on the news and isolated this bit, [...]
