Full Circle Side-Pod #1: Hello World… Where Am I? (feed updated)
This is an extra, irregular, short-form podcast, which is intended to be a side-branch of the main Full Circle Podcast. Somewhere to put all the general technology, non-Ubuntu news and opinions, hobby-horses and general kipple that doesn’t fit anywhere else. Be prepared for a healthy dose of British sarcasm.
News: Google-TV, Android 2.2 Froyo, WebM
Opinion: Get Real, It’s in the Patent Pledge Small Print
Expert Spot: Recording the Full Circle Podcast pt. 1: Preparation

Apologies all, feed updated.
iTunes takes 24 hours to update, so we may be lucky and catch the latest overnight tonight. RC

I had to stop listening after 7 minutes. Why bother doing a podcast about google and phones when you don’t even “do phones”? If all you’re going to do is bitch and moan for 18 minutes, maybe it’s best not only to leave it out of the main podcast but to keep your mouth shut.
Now THAT is 7 minutes I’ll never get back.

Jim,
It’s a shame we can’t all attend your charm school. Probably best you turned it off, it sounds like you need to get out more.
You were warned in the show notes and at the top of the show. Caveat Emptor! RC

WOW what a breath of fresh air. Someone prepared to say what they really think and not just regurgitate the press release. Loved the short format, loved the cynicism, even better than the full podcast.
