00:01:55.180 --> 00:01:58.000 lawyer, my mother loves me, etc 00:01:58.000 --> 00:01:58.000 , etc 00:01:58.000 --> 00:02:00.000 All other disclaimers apply 00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:02.430 We've been spending most of 00:02:02.430 --> 00:02:05.000 today, it's now 11.37 a.m. 00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:06.690 Most of today from my point of 00:02:06.690 --> 00:02:08.660 view, most of the evening from 00:02:08.660 --> 00:02:09.000 Adam's 00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:11.540 To try to get this cross-cont 00:02:11.540 --> 00:02:14.390 inental internet radio program 00:02:14.390 --> 00:02:16.000 thing working 00:02:16.000 --> 00:02:17.250 And perhaps now we actually 00:02:17.250 --> 00:02:18.560 have it working, what do you 00:02:18.560 --> 00:02:19.000 think? 00:02:19.000 --> 00:02:20.370 It seems to be, although the 00:02:20.370 --> 00:02:21.990 magic moment is about 6 minutes 00:02:21.990 --> 00:02:23.000 and 22 seconds 00:02:23.000 --> 00:02:24.860 That's when a wire tap, which I 00:02:24.860 --> 00:02:26.400 'm using to record the signal of 00:02:26.400 --> 00:02:28.130 both my microphone and the 00:02:28.130 --> 00:02:29.430 signal that's coming in from 00:02:29.430 --> 00:02:31.000 Seattle from Dave 00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:32.640 That was kind of like the Max 00:02:32.640 --> 00:02:34.350 and it would just flip out and 00:02:34.350 --> 00:02:36.720 freeze up and it did some nasty 00:02:36.720 --> 00:02:37.000 stuff 00:02:37.000 --> 00:02:39.110 But it seems to be working now, 00:02:39.110 --> 00:02:40.480 we switched, we were doing it 00:02:40.480 --> 00:02:41.000 with Skype 00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:42.350 Which although has a beautiful 00:02:42.350 --> 00:02:44.170 sound quality and the latency 00:02:44.170 --> 00:02:45.000 is very low 00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:46.700 I think probably because it's 00:02:46.700 --> 00:02:48.330 beta on the Macintosh and I'm 00:02:48.330 --> 00:02:49.770 running a Mac and Dave's 00:02:49.770 --> 00:02:51.000 running Windows 00:02:51.000 --> 00:02:52.470 But for that reason, it's doing 00:02:52.470 --> 00:02:53.880 something that the 6 minutes 00:02:53.880 --> 00:02:56.100 was the magical moment and it 00:02:56.100 --> 00:02:57.000 just wasn't working 00:02:57.000 --> 00:02:58.290 But this really, from a 00:02:58.290 --> 00:03:00.110 broadcast perspective, this is 00:03:00.110 --> 00:03:01.950 blowing me away because when I 00:03:01.950 --> 00:03:04.000 was doing radio or television 00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:05.000 for that matter 00:03:05.000 --> 00:03:06.360 If you wanted to bring someone 00:03:06.360 --> 00:03:07.850 into the show, you either had 00:03:07.850 --> 00:03:09.000 to call them via phone 00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:11.090 Which is that very definite 00:03:11.090 --> 00:03:13.500 phone sound, or you have to get 00:03:13.500 --> 00:03:15.390 a satellite uplink, get someone 00:03:15.390 --> 00:03:16.000 to go sit in the studio 00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:18.200 Or if you're really lucky, then 00:03:18.200 --> 00:03:20.000 you can put in a lease line 00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:21.380 And the internet has always 00:03:21.380 --> 00:03:23.090 been the promise for broadcast, 00:03:23.090 --> 00:03:24.110 like hey, we can connect 00:03:24.110 --> 00:03:25.580 everyone everywhere from any 00:03:25.580 --> 00:03:26.000 place 00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:27.470 I haven't seen much more in 00:03:27.470 --> 00:03:29.020 technology when it comes to 00:03:29.020 --> 00:03:31.030 stuff like this than the video 00:03:31.030 --> 00:03:32.000 phones on CNN 00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:33.920 I don't think many people are 00:03:33.920 --> 00:03:36.080 using the technology this way, 00:03:36.080 --> 00:03:37.000 but it seems to be working 00:03:37.000 --> 00:03:39.460 And the idea is that we'll do, 00:03:39.460 --> 00:03:41.720 I'm going to be very careful 00:03:41.720 --> 00:03:44.220 and say, a weekly program and 00:03:44.220 --> 00:03:46.000 just shoot the shit together 00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:48.340 We've been friends for a number 00:03:48.340 --> 00:03:49.890 of years and we've been talking 00:03:49.890 --> 00:03:51.000 about doing a show like this 00:03:51.000 --> 00:03:53.000 for a number of years 00:03:53.000 --> 00:03:54.160 We've been talking about 00:03:54.160 --> 00:03:55.550 working together for a number 00:03:55.550 --> 00:03:56.000 of years 00:03:56.000 --> 00:03:57.320 Well, you know, it's our phone 00:03:57.320 --> 00:03:59.280 conversations generally sound 00:03:59.280 --> 00:04:00.700 like they would be good things 00:04:00.700 --> 00:04:02.000 to share with other people 00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:03.820 But we put things on our to-do 00:04:03.820 --> 00:04:06.000 list, our respective to-do list 00:04:06.000 --> 00:04:08.120 , but somehow don't seem to ever 00:04:08.120 --> 00:04:09.000 get them done 00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:11.780 So this way, the ideas that we 00:04:11.780 --> 00:04:14.330 have, they get out there, and 00:04:14.330 --> 00:04:16.010 maybe we'll have some fun with 00:04:16.010 --> 00:04:17.000 it along the way 00:04:17.000 --> 00:04:20.000 And so we'll see what happens 00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:21.530 First of all, a reminder that 00:04:21.530 --> 00:04:23.060 all of our listeners are under 00:04:23.060 --> 00:04:24.000 non-disclosure 00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:25.500 That's what trade secrets is 00:04:25.500 --> 00:04:26.000 all about 00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:27.300 Yeah, we'll get to that at some 00:04:27.300 --> 00:04:28.550 other point in time, but just 00:04:28.550 --> 00:04:29.860 for now, you're not allowed to 00:04:29.860 --> 00:04:32.380 tell anybody about this or what 00:04:32.380 --> 00:04:34.000 we're talking about 00:04:34.000 --> 00:04:37.090 Anything you tell us, of course 00:04:37.090 --> 00:04:38.220 , anything that other people 00:04:38.220 --> 00:04:39.340 tell us, of course, is not 00:04:39.340 --> 00:04:40.000 confidential 00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:42.000 No, we'll obviously discuss it 00:04:42.000 --> 00:04:42.000 together 00:04:42.000 --> 00:04:44.060 Everything that we tell you, 00:04:44.060 --> 00:04:46.000 however, is confidential 00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:48.340 That's the premise of the trade 00:04:48.340 --> 00:04:49.000 secrets 00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:51.100 We're going to trade secrets 00:04:51.100 --> 00:04:53.280 here quite out in the open, but 00:04:53.280 --> 00:04:54.710 they'll be your secrets, not 00:04:54.710 --> 00:04:55.000 ours 00:04:55.000 --> 00:04:58.160 So today being September 16, 00:04:58.160 --> 00:05:00.420 2004, it's Thursday evening 00:05:00.420 --> 00:05:04.020 where I am, it's about 8.40 now 00:05:04.020 --> 00:05:05.000 , PM 00:05:05.000 --> 00:05:07.370 And we've spoken a couple times 00:05:07.370 --> 00:05:09.190 in the past two hours, and now 00:05:09.190 --> 00:05:09.710 we're finally recording 00:05:09.710 --> 00:05:10.000 everything 00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:12.150 But you've been really excited, 00:05:12.150 --> 00:05:14.160 Dave, about what's been going 00:05:14.160 --> 00:05:15.000 on with Bush 00:05:15.000 --> 00:05:17.990 Well, mostly, it's been what's 00:05:17.990 --> 00:05:20.000 been going on with CNN 00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:22.810 I mean, they've been intermix 00:05:22.810 --> 00:05:25.470 ing CNN coverage of Hurricane 00:05:25.470 --> 00:05:28.030 Ivan with coverage of the 00:05:28.030 --> 00:05:29.650 campaign, the president's 00:05:29.650 --> 00:05:30.000 campaign 00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:31.960 And when we were talking before 00:05:31.960 --> 00:05:33.650 , it was like this wonderful 00:05:33.650 --> 00:05:35.000 magic little moment 00:05:35.000 --> 00:05:36.990 They had President Bush 00:05:36.990 --> 00:05:39.230 climbing the stairs to Air 00:05:39.230 --> 00:05:41.820 Force One, and his shoulders 00:05:41.820 --> 00:05:43.000 were slumped 00:05:43.000 --> 00:05:45.980 And he turned around, he looked 00:05:45.980 --> 00:05:48.050 really tired and kind of 00:05:48.050 --> 00:05:50.000 confused, and he waved 00:05:50.000 --> 00:05:51.760 And as he was waving, the 00:05:51.760 --> 00:05:53.990 headline comes up on the screen 00:05:53.990 --> 00:05:56.000 , "The Future of Iraq" 00:05:56.000 --> 00:05:57.980 And I thought, wow, well, this 00:05:57.980 --> 00:05:59.640 is what lives in the future of 00:05:59.640 --> 00:06:00.000 Iraq 00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:01.680 But you know how that works, 00:06:01.680 --> 00:06:03.000 Dave?

Okay, so it's a web browser and 00:26:56.540 --> 00:27:00.000 it now can recognize RSS feeds 00:27:00.000 --> 00:27:01.180 And from what I understand, it 00:27:01.180 --> 00:27:03.090 's doing kind of like half or 00:27:03.090 --> 00:27:04.560 maybe even one-eighth of what 00:27:04.560 --> 00:27:06.000 Apple is planning with Safari 00:27:06.000 --> 00:27:07.000 and RSS 00:27:07.000 --> 00:27:08.550 We can basically bookmark an R 00:27:08.550 --> 00:27:10.110 SS feed and then from that book 00:27:10.110 --> 00:27:11.670 mark, you get a hierarchical 00:27:11.670 --> 00:27:15.260 menu with new elements that 00:27:15.260 --> 00:27:16.000 have shown up 00:27:16.000 --> 00:27:17.000 Is that kind of what it does? 00:27:17.000 --> 00:27:19.090 Yeah, it sounds like we finally 00:27:19.090 --> 00:27:20.250 got to the bottom of it and 00:27:20.250 --> 00:27:22.450 that's pretty much what you're 00:27:22.450 --> 00:27:23.000 seeing 00:27:23.000 --> 00:27:25.730 And they only understand feeds 00:27:25.730 --> 00:27:28.200 that are the title, link, 00:27:28.200 --> 00:27:30.000 description format 00:27:30.000 --> 00:27:32.020 And so if you, like with my 00:27:32.020 --> 00:27:34.230 blog, only some of the items 00:27:34.230 --> 00:27:37.440 actually have titles and almost 00:27:37.440 --> 00:27:39.000 never have links 00:27:39.000 --> 00:27:40.990 So if you're missing one of 00:27:40.990 --> 00:27:43.550 those elements, then it doesn't 00:27:43.550 --> 00:27:44.000 take 00:27:44.000 --> 00:27:47.160 I'm not exactly sure how cripp 00:27:47.160 --> 00:27:49.000 led it is, but yeah 00:27:49.000 --> 00:27:51.210 It either doesn't recognize the 00:27:51.210 --> 00:27:52.480 feed at all or it only 00:27:52.480 --> 00:27:53.900 recognizes items that have 00:27:53.900 --> 00:27:55.000 those three elements 00:27:55.000 --> 00:27:57.450 But it's like, you know, I don 00:27:57.450 --> 00:28:00.000 't know how to say this politely 00:28:00.000 --> 00:28:01.760 Don't, this is what trade 00:28:01.760 --> 00:28:02.740 secrets are supposed to be 00:28:02.740 --> 00:28:03.000 about there 00:28:03.000 --> 00:28:04.420 Well, I know, but people get 00:28:04.420 --> 00:28:07.000 sensitive and they think that 00:28:07.000 --> 00:28:09.560 if I say something that isn't 00:28:09.560 --> 00:28:12.000 positive about their irrigator 00:28:12.000 --> 00:28:12.000 or whatever 00:28:12.000 --> 00:28:13.050 Well then just don't say 00:28:13.050 --> 00:28:14.510 something negative, it's 00:28:14.510 --> 00:28:16.460 positive criticism, come on, 00:28:16.460 --> 00:28:17.500 this is what people want to 00:28:17.500 --> 00:28:18.000 hear about that 00:28:18.000 --> 00:28:22.180 No, thanks for that, it really 00:28:22.180 --> 00:28:25.270 helps, but it reminds me of 00:28:25.270 --> 00:28:28.670 what happened with Outliners in 00:28:28.670 --> 00:28:30.000 the 80s 00:28:30.000 --> 00:28:31.250 I mean we came out with an Out 00:28:31.250 --> 00:28:32.790 liner and designed a product for 00:28:32.790 --> 00:28:34.000 organizing your thinking 00:28:34.000 --> 00:28:36.060 And that was the center of what 00:28:36.060 --> 00:28:37.000 we were doing 00:28:37.000 --> 00:28:39.090 Everything was judged, every 00:28:39.090 --> 00:28:41.090 feature was judged by how well 00:28:41.090 --> 00:28:43.000 it suited that application 00:28:43.000 --> 00:28:44.910 And then the word processor 00:28:44.910 --> 00:28:47.160 guys, WordPerfect first, and 00:28:47.160 --> 00:28:49.380 Microsoft, they all added 00:28:49.380 --> 00:28:50.730 features that they called Out 00:28:50.730 --> 00:28:51.000 lining 00:28:51.000 --> 00:28:55.540 But didn't do that, they didn't 00:28:55.540 --> 00:28:58.180 support the ideation creative 00:28:58.180 --> 00:28:59.000 process 00:28:59.000 --> 00:29:00.310 And they were basically 00:29:00.310 --> 00:29:02.340 formatting, I mean WordPerfect 00:29:02.340 --> 00:29:03.750 basically, what they called Out 00:29:03.750 --> 00:29:05.540 lining allowed you to put Roman 00:29:05.540 --> 00:29:06.000 numerals 00:29:06.000 --> 00:29:08.050 And then section headings, they 00:29:08.050 --> 00:29:09.320 basically used the Harvard Out 00:29:09.320 --> 00:29:10.580 line format, it was a printing 00:29:10.580 --> 00:29:12.000 formatting thing 00:29:12.000 --> 00:29:13.980 But they called that Outlining 00:29:13.980 --> 00:29:16.140 and people got really confused, 00:29:16.140 --> 00:29:18.000 which was really unfortunate 00:29:18.000 --> 00:29:22.000 And the whole idea got diluted 00:29:22.000 --> 00:29:23.090 and, you know, I think it 00:29:23.090 --> 00:29:24.500 turned into PowerPoint, Outlin 00:29:24.500 --> 00:29:26.000 ers turned into PowerPoint 00:29:26.000 --> 00:29:27.560 Right, so even that was a 00:29:27.560 --> 00:29:29.280 better Outliner than Word 00:29:29.280 --> 00:29:32.510 Perfect was, or Word, at least 00:29:32.510 --> 00:29:34.740 they were doing what Outliners 00:29:34.740 --> 00:29:36.000 were roughly supposed to do 00:29:36.000 --> 00:29:38.000 Although not all that well 00:29:38.000 --> 00:29:39.800 But the same thing is happening 00:29:39.800 --> 00:29:41.390 with aggregators now, and I'm 00:29:41.390 --> 00:29:42.000 really... 00:29:42.000 --> 00:29:45.020 Now this is the extreme example 00:29:45.020 --> 00:29:46.240 , that's not an aggregator, it's 00:29:46.240 --> 00:29:47.000 not even very useful 00:29:47.000 --> 00:29:49.080 It's sort of a gimmick to be 00:29:49.080 --> 00:29:50.000 able to say... 00:29:50.000 --> 00:29:52.340 To say RSS inside, that's what 00:29:52.340 --> 00:29:53.000 it's for 00:29:53.000 --> 00:29:55.420 Yeah, we do RSS, but what 00:29:55.420 --> 00:29:56.510 happens is people look at it 00:29:56.510 --> 00:29:57.910 and they go, well, jeez, that 00:29:57.910 --> 00:29:59.000 doesn't seem very useful 00:29:59.000 --> 00:30:00.030 And then they conclude from 00:30:00.030 --> 00:30:01.000 that that RSS is very useful 00:30:01.000 --> 00:30:03.000 RSS sucks, right, right, right 00:30:03.000 --> 00:30:04.590 Right, and I hate to see that 00:30:04.590 --> 00:30:05.000 happen 00:30:05.000 --> 00:30:08.110 So, and I think that, you know, 00:30:08.110 --> 00:30:10.780 if they want to support RSS in 00:30:10.780 --> 00:30:12.000 the browser 00:30:12.000 --> 00:30:13.350 The way to do it is to 00:30:13.350 --> 00:30:15.560 basically emulate a web server 00:30:15.560 --> 00:30:17.000 inside the browser 00:30:17.000 --> 00:30:18.740 And do a real aggregator that 00:30:18.740 --> 00:30:20.560 goes and gets the news every, 00:30:20.560 --> 00:30:22.590 you know, period of time, every 00:30:22.590 --> 00:30:23.000 hour 00:30:23.000 --> 00:30:24.310 And then it goes to you in 00:30:24.310 --> 00:30:26.120 reverse chronological order so 00:30:26.120 --> 00:30:27.300 that you can actually get the 00:30:27.300 --> 00:30:28.550 leverage that an aggregator 00:30:28.550 --> 00:30:29.000 provides 00:30:29.000 --> 00:30:31.000 So, you know, this is like... 00:30:31.000 --> 00:30:32.820 Once we get to the bottom of it 00:30:32.820 --> 00:30:34.540 , I go, oh jeez, here we go 00:30:34.540 --> 00:30:35.000 again, you know 00:30:35.000 --> 00:30:36.970 But, you know, I don't think 00:30:36.970 --> 00:30:38.530 that the feature is worth 00:30:38.530 --> 00:30:40.000 bending the feeds for 00:30:40.000 --> 00:30:41.180 I mean, the feeds are doing 00:30:41.180 --> 00:30:42.320 something useful and if the 00:30:42.320 --> 00:30:43.080 tool doesn't want to do 00:30:43.080 --> 00:30:45.000 something useful with it, well, 00:30:45.000 --> 00:30:45.000 you know 00:30:45.000 --> 00:30:47.210 Maybe they can try again, and 00:30:47.210 --> 00:30:48.230 you know, since it's still a 00:30:48.230 --> 00:30:49.210 course, of course, maybe 00:30:49.210 --> 00:30:50.000 somebody else can help them out 00:30:50.000 --> 00:30:50.000 there 00:30:50.000 --> 00:30:51.000 Right, well I am... 00:30:51.000 --> 00:30:52.320 I certainly do want to help 00:30:52.320 --> 00:30:53.000 there myself 00:30:53.000 --> 00:30:54.360 Yeah, just from looking at the 00:30:54.360 --> 00:30:55.990 screenshots, I immediately knew 00:30:55.990 --> 00:30:57.180 this is something I did not 00:30:57.180 --> 00:30:58.000 need to download, you know 00:30:58.000 --> 00:30:59.150 I was like, no, that's not 00:30:59.150 --> 00:31:00.000 going to do it for me 00:31:00.000 --> 00:31:01.370 It's one billionth as 00:31:01.370 --> 00:31:03.400 interesting as what's going on 00:31:03.400 --> 00:31:05.000 in the enclosures world 00:31:05.000 --> 00:31:07.770 Excuse me, we're also running 00:31:07.770 --> 00:31:10.000 into similar issues there 00:31:10.000 --> 00:31:11.920 Although from a different 00:31:11.920 --> 00:31:14.670 vantage point where on iPodder. 00:31:14.670 --> 00:31:15.000 org 00:31:15.000 --> 00:31:16.580 Where, you know, the iPodder is 00:31:16.580 --> 00:31:18.000 just intended to be very simple 00:31:18.000 --> 00:31:19.420 You know, all it's intended to 00:31:19.420 --> 00:31:20.720 do is to bring in these enclos 00:31:20.720 --> 00:31:21.550 ures from feeds that are 00:31:21.550 --> 00:31:22.770 subscribed to and drop them 00:31:22.770 --> 00:31:24.000 onto your MP3 player 00:31:24.000 --> 00:31:25.000 That's it 00:31:25.000 --> 00:31:27.800 And since there's basically a 00:31:27.800 --> 00:31:30.480 lack of RSS feeds with enclos 00:31:30.480 --> 00:31:31.000 ures 00:31:31.000 --> 00:31:32.670 A couple of developers have 00:31:32.670 --> 00:31:34.100 said, oh, well look, I've 00:31:34.100 --> 00:31:36.080 modified this now, so it scrap 00:31:36.080 --> 00:31:37.000 es the HTML 00:31:37.000 --> 00:31:40.000 Which, although a great feature 00:31:40.000 --> 00:31:41.800 , you know, it does not... it 00:31:41.800 --> 00:31:43.520 totally detracts from what we 00:31:43.520 --> 00:31:45.000 're trying to accomplish 00:31:45.000 --> 00:31:48.130 Yeah, that's a sophisticated 00:31:48.130 --> 00:31:50.020 thought that you want to sort 00:31:50.020 --> 00:31:51.430 of be a little picky about what 00:31:51.430 --> 00:31:52.000 you're doing 00:31:52.000 --> 00:31:53.720 Because you're not just looking 00:31:53.720 --> 00:31:55.000 for the functionality, right? 00:31:55.000 --> 00:31:56.110 You're actually trying to 00:31:56.110 --> 00:31:57.000 evangelize a format 00:31:57.000 --> 00:31:58.970 You're trying to get people up 00:31:58.970 --> 00:32:01.000 to a certain level so that then 00:32:01.000 --> 00:32:03.440 , presumably, we can ask them to 00:32:03.440 --> 00:32:04.000 do more, right? 00:32:04.000 --> 00:32:06.140 That shouldn't necessarily be 00:32:06.140 --> 00:32:07.000 the end of it, you know 00:32:07.000 --> 00:32:09.180 But they have to basically 00:32:09.180 --> 00:32:11.260 support RSS 2.0 and the 00:32:11.260 --> 00:32:12.000 enclosure feature 00:32:12.000 --> 00:32:13.730 And then, you know, then we're 00:32:13.730 --> 00:32:15.000 starting to get somewhere 00:32:15.000 --> 00:32:16.670 I also see that you're, you 00:32:16.670 --> 00:32:18.170 know, and I think you're doing 00:32:18.170 --> 00:32:19.000 this the right way 00:32:19.000 --> 00:32:20.400 That part, it's hard because 00:32:20.400 --> 00:32:21.630 what you're trying to do there 00:32:21.630 --> 00:32:23.000 is say, hold on a minute 00:32:23.000 --> 00:32:24.400 This isn't, you know, let's not 00:32:24.400 --> 00:32:25.000 go that route 00:32:25.000 --> 00:32:27.080 And I heard you say that in the 00:32:27.080 --> 00:32:29.460 source code that I listened to 00:32:29.460 --> 00:32:30.000 last night 00:32:30.000 --> 00:32:31.200 I haven't listened to the 00:32:31.200 --> 00:32:33.000 current one yet, but... 00:32:33.000 --> 00:32:34.360 Don't worry, I said the same 00:32:34.360 --> 00:32:35.000 thing again 00:32:35.000 --> 00:32:37.120 Yeah, and you're gonna... but 00:32:37.120 --> 00:32:38.000 that's gonna be the harder one 00:32:38.000 --> 00:32:40.120 The one that's easier is to 00:32:40.120 --> 00:32:42.550 continue drill on the need for 00:32:42.550 --> 00:32:44.000 easy installers 00:32:44.000 --> 00:32:45.000 Oh, man, yeah 00:32:45.000 --> 00:32:47.330 Right, and that's also very 00:32:47.330 --> 00:32:48.790 important is because the 00:32:48.790 --> 00:32:51.000 expectation of a user is that, 00:32:51.000 --> 00:32:51.000 you know 00:32:51.000 --> 00:32:52.260 There's a certain level of 00:32:52.260 --> 00:32:53.590 professionalism that they 00:32:53.590 --> 00:32:54.000 expect 00:32:54.000 --> 00:32:55.330 And if they don't see it, they 00:32:55.330 --> 00:32:56.000 don't trust it 00:32:56.000 --> 00:32:57.000 Right 00:32:57.000 --> 00:32:58.720 And, you know, it's not 00:32:58.720 --> 00:33:00.000 entirely logical 00:33:00.000 --> 00:33:02.510 You know, the inference isn't 00:33:02.510 --> 00:33:04.000 entirely logical 00:33:04.000 --> 00:33:06.000 But the people think that way 00:33:06.000 --> 00:33:07.310 and programmers generally don't 00:33:07.310 --> 00:33:08.000 understand that 00:33:08.000 --> 00:33:09.720 They don't get it, that people 00:33:09.720 --> 00:33:12.260 ... that they have to cater to 00:33:12.260 --> 00:33:14.000 people's irrationalities 00:33:14.000 --> 00:33:15.330 That that's, you know, the 00:33:15.330 --> 00:33:17.000 unfortunate or fortunate, 00:33:17.000 --> 00:33:17.000 actually 00:33:17.000 --> 00:33:18.980 There's nothing wrong with 00:33:18.980 --> 00:33:21.000 giving people what they want 00:33:21.000 --> 00:33:22.580 If it doesn't get in the way of 00:33:22.580 --> 00:33:24.350 , you know, of making the whole 00:33:24.350 --> 00:33:25.000 thing work 00:33:25.000 --> 00:33:26.960 The problem is, of course, is 00:33:26.960 --> 00:33:28.590 when people want things that 00:33:28.590 --> 00:33:29.000 break 00:33:29.000 --> 00:33:30.430 Want features that break the 00:33:30.430 --> 00:33:31.000 basic idea 00:33:31.000 --> 00:33:32.500 Like, for example, people 00:33:32.500 --> 00:33:34.000 wanted WYSIWYG with the web, 00:33:34.000 --> 00:33:34.000 you know 00:33:34.000 --> 00:33:35.660 That was the first thing, you 00:33:35.660 --> 00:33:37.120 know, as the web came along, it 00:33:37.120 --> 00:33:37.870 was the first thing everybody 00:33:37.870 --> 00:33:38.000 said 00:33:38.000 --> 00:33:39.120 Well, you know, let me know 00:33:39.120 --> 00:33:40.000 when this is WYSIWYG 00:33:40.000 --> 00:33:41.740 But the problem is the web wasn 00:33:41.740 --> 00:33:43.000 't a WYSI environment 00:33:43.000 --> 00:33:45.000 So it couldn't ever be WYSIWYG 00:33:45.000 --> 00:33:47.020 But marketing guys hired 00:33:47.020 --> 00:33:48.610 programmers and they said 00:33:48.610 --> 00:33:49.000 basically if you... 00:33:49.000 --> 00:33:51.000 Go make it WYSIWYG 00:33:51.000 --> 00:33:52.400 Right, we'll fire you and the 00:33:52.400 --> 00:33:54.000 programmers will come back and 00:33:54.000 --> 00:33:54.000 say 00:33:54.000 --> 00:33:55.620 "Well, we can't because the web 00:33:55.620 --> 00:33:57.000 isn't a WYSI environment" 00:33:57.000 --> 00:33:58.720 And they go, "There you go, 00:33:58.720 --> 00:34:00.000 programmers are so difficult" 00:34:00.000 --> 00:34:02.000 You know what I mean? 00:34:02.000 --> 00:34:04.660 I hear you, actually, it's so 00:34:04.660 --> 00:34:08.220 funny because I listened to the 00:34:08.220 --> 00:34:09.480 interaction between you and 00:34:09.480 --> 00:34:11.000 Andrew Grummit yesterday 00:34:11.000 --> 00:34:13.030 And, you know, as the day 00:34:13.030 --> 00:34:14.990 before that you were describing 00:34:14.990 --> 00:34:15.000 , you know 00:34:15.000 --> 00:34:17.270 The automated process for 00:34:17.270 --> 00:34:19.470 creating an RSS feed from a 00:34:19.470 --> 00:34:21.000 folder of Mp3 files, right? 00:34:21.000 --> 00:34:23.110 Using the ID3 information, 00:34:23.110 --> 00:34:24.350 which was something we had 00:34:24.350 --> 00:34:25.000 talked about 00:34:25.000 --> 00:34:27.590 And you sort of said, "Well, 00:34:27.590 --> 00:34:29.190 you know, this has just got to 00:34:29.190 --> 00:34:30.000 be made easier" 00:34:30.000 --> 00:34:31.350 And, you know, I'm sure 00:34:31.350 --> 00:34:33.000 somebody will figure this out 00:34:33.000 --> 00:34:34.440 And as I was thinking it 00:34:34.440 --> 00:34:36.000 through, I was going, you know, 00:34:36.000 --> 00:34:36.000 it's just simply... 00:34:36.000 --> 00:34:37.950 There's something that just can 00:34:37.950 --> 00:34:39.000 't be made easier 00:34:39.000 --> 00:34:41.000 And that's one of them 00:34:41.000 --> 00:34:42.530 So, you know, Andrew basically 00:34:42.530 --> 00:34:43.000 said that 00:34:43.000 --> 00:34:44.850 But there's this moment where 00:34:44.850 --> 00:34:46.240 the user has to create the 00:34:46.240 --> 00:34:47.000 association 00:34:47.000 --> 00:34:49.060 Between the name of the folder 00:34:49.060 --> 00:34:51.420 on some hard disk somewhere and 00:34:51.420 --> 00:34:52.000 a URL 00:34:52.000 --> 00:34:53.240 As you use to access that 00:34:53.240 --> 00:34:54.000 folder over the web 00:34:54.000 --> 00:34:55.630 And I think probably, if I 00:34:55.630 --> 00:34:56.650 understood what Andrew was 00:34:56.650 --> 00:34:58.000 saying correctly 00:34:58.000 --> 00:34:59.280 I think he probably found the 00:34:59.280 --> 00:35:00.000 sweet spot in it 00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:02.000 However, it's got a flaw to it 00:35:02.000 --> 00:35:03.250 Which is that you have to be 00:35:03.250 --> 00:35:04.560 able to run software on your 00:35:04.560 --> 00:35:05.000 server 00:35:05.000 --> 00:35:07.580 And probably so many people don 00:35:07.580 --> 00:35:10.000 't have the ability to do that 00:35:10.000 --> 00:35:12.000 That there's probably not... 00:35:12.000 --> 00:35:13.750 The only way to get around this 00:35:13.750 --> 00:35:15.120 one, I think, is to offer a 00:35:15.120 --> 00:35:16.000 hosting service for this stuff 00:35:16.000 --> 00:35:18.000 And I don't want to do that 00:35:18.000 --> 00:35:21.660 Well, I think there's another 00:35:21.660 --> 00:35:23.000 way around it 00:35:23.000 --> 00:35:25.360 Because now you hit on three 00:35:25.360 --> 00:35:26.000 points 00:35:26.000 --> 00:35:28.440 First of all, I think Andrew 00:35:28.440 --> 00:35:30.630 hit the brilliance of what his 00:35:30.630 --> 00:35:33.000 DIR2 RSS script is 00:35:33.000 --> 00:35:35.120 The fact that it's doing 00:35:35.120 --> 00:35:36.000 exactly that 00:35:36.000 --> 00:35:38.000 It's sitting in a folder 00:35:38.000 --> 00:35:39.590 If you understand the concept 00:35:39.590 --> 00:35:40.000 of that 00:35:40.000 --> 00:35:42.010 Then you can understand what's 00:35:42.010 --> 00:35:43.000 kind of needed 00:35:43.000 --> 00:35:44.480 The big problem that we're 00:35:44.480 --> 00:35:45.000 running... 00:35:45.000 --> 00:35:46.310 I'm not running into, but that 00:35:46.310 --> 00:35:47.000 we're going to run into 00:35:47.000 --> 00:35:48.170 With anyone who does something 00:35:48.170 --> 00:35:49.000 like this regularly 00:35:49.000 --> 00:35:50.390 And doesn't have money to fuck 00:35:50.390 --> 00:35:51.000 around with 00:35:51.000 --> 00:35:52.000 Is bandwidth 00:35:52.000 --> 00:35:54.000 Storage is one thing 00:35:54.000 --> 00:35:55.290 I've just been doing this for a 00:35:55.290 --> 00:35:56.000 couple of weeks 00:35:56.000 --> 00:35:57.350 And I already have half a gig 00:35:57.350 --> 00:35:59.000 of mp3 files that I've created 00:35:59.000 --> 00:36:01.000 But bandwidth 00:36:02.000 --> 00:36:05.000 You get one slash dot 00:36:05.000 --> 00:36:06.730 And people say, "Oh, well, let 00:36:06.730 --> 00:36:08.000 me go listen to all these shows 00:36:08.000 --> 00:36:08.000 " 00:36:08.000 --> 00:36:10.000 Or "Let me install iPodder" 00:36:10.000 --> 00:36:12.990 And then you get the 10 most 00:36:12.990 --> 00:36:14.000 recent entries 00:36:14.000 --> 00:36:15.360 Or I think I even said a little 00:36:15.360 --> 00:36:16.000 bit smaller 00:36:16.000 --> 00:36:18.000 The five most recent entries 00:36:18.000 --> 00:36:22.000 Times an average of 20 megs 00:36:22.000 --> 00:36:23.010 But you're on your way to 00:36:23.010 --> 00:36:24.000 solving this problem 00:36:24.000 --> 00:36:26.000 Here's how that's working 00:36:26.000 --> 00:36:27.960 The way you're going to solve 00:36:27.960 --> 00:36:29.500 it, as I see it, is with this 00:36:29.500 --> 00:36:31.000 mail list that you've got going 00:36:31.000 --> 00:36:32.420 What's it called? iPodder 00:36:32.420 --> 00:36:33.000 developer? 00:36:33.000 --> 00:36:35.000 Yeah, it's a Yahoo group 00:36:35.000 --> 00:36:36.470 Here's the steps that we go 00:36:36.470 --> 00:36:37.720 through to solve the bandwidth 00:36:37.720 --> 00:36:38.000 problem 00:36:38.000 --> 00:36:39.640 We know that BitTorrent is at 00:36:39.640 --> 00:36:41.000 the core of the solution here 00:36:41.000 --> 00:36:43.000 The problem with BitTorrent 00:36:43.000 --> 00:36:45.210 And I found this after I 00:36:45.210 --> 00:36:46.000 finally decided to use it 00:36:46.000 --> 00:36:48.210 I was in Madison, Wisconsin, a 00:36:48.210 --> 00:36:49.000 few weeks ago 00:36:49.000 --> 00:36:50.640 And I was getting ready to go 00:36:50.640 --> 00:36:52.000 into the Netherlands 00:36:52.000 --> 00:36:54.430 Not your Netherlands, but the 00:36:54.430 --> 00:36:55.000 wilderness of the matter 00:36:55.000 --> 00:36:57.100 This is where you ping me and 00:36:57.100 --> 00:36:58.000 you say "Honor the BitTorrent" 00:36:58.000 --> 00:37:00.700 I try to find something that I 00:37:00.700 --> 00:37:02.000 can download 00:37:02.000 --> 00:37:03.270 Because none of this shit is 00:37:03.270 --> 00:37:04.000 downloadable 00:37:04.000 --> 00:37:06.140 They make this big promise that 00:37:06.140 --> 00:37:07.000 "Hey, BitTorrent is so cool" 00:37:07.000 --> 00:37:08.780 But nobody actually is hosting 00:37:08.780 --> 00:37:11.000 enough of the content for me 00:37:11.000 --> 00:37:12.720 To be able to download the 00:37:12.720 --> 00:37:14.000 things that I want 00:37:14.000 --> 00:37:16.000 So, right 00:37:16.000 --> 00:37:18.130 If we want to use BitTorrent, 00:37:18.130 --> 00:37:19.000 and I think we do 00:37:19.000 --> 00:37:20.560 Because that's how we solve the 00:37:20.560 --> 00:37:21.000 problem 00:37:21.000 --> 00:37:22.500 Then we have to solve the next 00:37:22.500 --> 00:37:23.000 problem 00:37:23.000 --> 00:37:24.890 How can we be sure that there's 00:37:24.890 --> 00:37:26.190 at least five places to 00:37:26.190 --> 00:37:27.000 download it from 00:37:27.000 --> 00:37:29.000 On a given day? 00:37:29.000 --> 00:37:31.000 Yeah 00:37:31.000 --> 00:37:33.000 I've been thinking about this 00:37:33.000 --> 00:37:34.000 because 00:37:34.000 --> 00:37:36.000 You're absolutely right 00:37:36.000 --> 00:37:37.600 Let me just recount what 00:37:37.600 --> 00:37:38.000 happened there 00:37:38.000 --> 00:37:39.560 You wanted to download some 00:37:39.560 --> 00:37:40.000 movies 00:37:40.000 --> 00:37:41.120 Specifically, you wanted to 00:37:41.120 --> 00:37:42.000 download some old SNLs 00:37:42.000 --> 00:37:44.000 Saturday Night Live 00:37:44.000 --> 00:37:46.220 Which I don't think there are 00:37:46.220 --> 00:37:46.990 hardly any Saturday Night Live 00:37:46.990 --> 00:37:48.000 BitTorrents 00:37:48.000 --> 00:37:50.330 But I said, "BitTorrent really 00:37:50.330 --> 00:37:51.000 works best 00:37:51.000 --> 00:37:53.110 When something is new, 00:37:53.110 --> 00:37:54.000 something is fresh 00:37:54.000 --> 00:37:56.000 And everybody wants it because 00:37:56.000 --> 00:37:56.000 what you get then 00:37:56.000 --> 00:38:00.010 Is asking people to keep their 00:38:00.010 --> 00:38:01.000 application open 00:38:01.000 --> 00:38:03.000 To see the file is horseshit 00:38:03.000 --> 00:38:04.760 That's almost like saying "Pain 00:38:04.760 --> 00:38:05.000 ty" 00:38:05.000 --> 00:38:07.000 Because you're using bandwidth, 00:38:07.000 --> 00:38:07.000 etc 00:38:07.000 --> 00:38:09.220 And you can't count on people 00:38:09.220 --> 00:38:10.000 to do that 00:38:10.000 --> 00:38:11.000 They're going to leech 00:38:11.000 --> 00:38:12.470 But with BitTorrent, from what 00:38:12.470 --> 00:38:13.000 I understand 00:38:13.000 --> 00:38:15.410 The brilliance of it is that if 00:38:15.410 --> 00:38:17.000 you download one megabyte 00:38:17.000 --> 00:38:19.020 You're probably pushing up a 00:38:19.020 --> 00:38:20.000 meg and a half 00:38:20.000 --> 00:38:21.000 Okay? 00:38:21.000 --> 00:38:24.000 So there's a formula in there 00:38:24.000 --> 00:38:27.120 And if on one day, across a 24- 00:38:27.120 --> 00:38:28.000 hour spectrum 00:38:28.000 --> 00:38:30.560 People say, "Okay, we all want 00:38:30.560 --> 00:38:31.000 this show" 00:38:31.000 --> 00:38:32.210 I'm right there with you, I've 00:38:32.210 --> 00:38:33.000 already figured that out 00:38:33.000 --> 00:38:34.000 We've already got that 00:38:34.000 --> 00:38:34.900 I know, but our listeners haven 00:38:34.900 --> 00:38:36.000 't, Dave 00:38:36.000 --> 00:38:38.000 Oh, yeah, I forgot about them 00:38:38.000 --> 00:38:40.000 Go ahead, go ahead 00:38:40.000 --> 00:38:41.300 Yeah, I guess you've got to 00:38:41.300 --> 00:38:42.000 include them in here 00:38:42.000 --> 00:38:43.000 What the hell? 00:38:43.000 --> 00:38:45.000 Let them figure it out 00:38:45.000 --> 00:38:46.000 Yeah, you figure it out 00:38:46.000 --> 00:38:48.000 We'll clutch here ourselves 00:38:48.000 --> 00:38:50.010 Let me just summarize what Adam 00:38:50.010 --> 00:38:51.000 was going to say 00:38:51.000 --> 00:38:53.510 Don't forget to mention the 00:38:53.510 --> 00:38:54.000 part 00:38:54.000 --> 00:38:55.300 Yeah, well, there's a lot of 00:38:55.300 --> 00:38:56.000 porn involved in this 00:38:56.000 --> 00:38:57.000 Okay? 00:38:57.000 --> 00:38:59.000 But here's the deal 00:38:59.000 --> 00:39:00.320 You need to have places that 00:39:00.320 --> 00:39:01.000 are actually... 00:39:01.000 --> 00:39:03.490 A current thing, like your 00:39:03.490 --> 00:39:04.700 source code is perfect for BitT 00:39:04.700 --> 00:39:05.000 orrent 00:39:05.000 --> 00:39:06.000 Right? 00:39:06.000 --> 00:39:08.180 Because at any given moment, 00:39:08.180 --> 00:39:10.000 there's one current one 00:39:10.000 --> 00:39:11.670 Same thing is true with this 00:39:11.670 --> 00:39:12.000 show 00:39:12.000 --> 00:39:14.070 There's only going to be one 00:39:14.070 --> 00:39:15.000 current one 00:39:15.000 --> 00:39:17.430 So what we have to make sure is 00:39:17.430 --> 00:39:18.000 that 00:39:18.000 --> 00:39:21.420 Before or concurrent with the 00:39:21.420 --> 00:39:23.000 release of it 00:39:23.000 --> 00:39:25.360 We've got five people, maybe on 00:39:25.360 --> 00:39:26.000 a rotating basis 00:39:26.000 --> 00:39:29.000 Who are willing to have it open 00:39:29.000 --> 00:39:30.700 In other words, premeditate 00:39:30.700 --> 00:39:31.000 that 00:39:31.000 --> 00:39:32.630 I'll give you another case in 00:39:32.630 --> 00:39:33.000 point 00:39:33.000 --> 00:39:35.270 The other day, Boing Boing had 00:39:35.270 --> 00:39:37.000 a BitTorrent of... 00:39:37.000 --> 00:39:39.000 I forget what it was, but it 00:39:39.000 --> 00:39:39.000 was... 00:39:39.000 --> 00:39:40.780 Yeah, I wish I remembered what 00:39:40.780 --> 00:39:41.000 it was, but I can't 00:39:41.000 --> 00:39:42.820 But it was something that was 00:39:42.820 --> 00:39:44.000 mildly instinctive 00:39:44.000 --> 00:39:45.910 I said, "Okay, Boing Boing is a 00:39:45.910 --> 00:39:47.000 high-flow block, right?" 00:39:47.000 --> 00:39:48.650 So I figure if I click on the 00:39:48.650 --> 00:39:49.000 link 00:39:49.000 --> 00:39:49.990 I'm going to be able to 00:39:49.990 --> 00:39:51.000 download this thing 00:39:51.000 --> 00:39:52.000 No way 00:39:52.000 --> 00:39:54.200 It missed the bootstrap, it 00:39:54.200 --> 00:39:55.000 didn't have enough 00:39:55.000 --> 00:39:56.520 So in other words, to make BitT 00:39:56.520 --> 00:39:57.000 orrent work 00:39:57.000 --> 00:39:59.000 It's not enough just to put up 00:39:59.000 --> 00:40:00.000 the torrent file 00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:01.000 And hope for the best 00:40:01.000 --> 00:40:03.160 You actually also have to get 00:40:03.160 --> 00:40:05.000 five or whatever the number is 00:40:05.000 --> 00:40:06.580 Let me throw this at you for a 00:40:06.580 --> 00:40:07.000 second 00:40:07.000 --> 00:40:11.020 I've posted a couple of BitTor 00:40:11.020 --> 00:40:13.000 rent RSS feeds 00:40:13.000 --> 00:40:14.000 Just testing stuff 00:40:14.000 --> 00:40:16.000 And what I found... 00:40:16.000 --> 00:40:18.000 The bootstrap that I would use 00:40:18.000 --> 00:40:19.000 in this case 00:40:19.000 --> 00:40:21.160 Is I have a BitTorrent client 00:40:21.160 --> 00:40:22.000 and server 00:40:22.000 --> 00:40:24.210 Running on a server in my data 00:40:24.210 --> 00:40:25.000 facility 00:40:25.000 --> 00:40:28.000 So I upload my torrent 00:40:28.000 --> 00:40:30.130 And it's basically sitting 00:40:30.130 --> 00:40:31.000 there open 00:40:31.000 --> 00:40:33.000 So it always has one node 00:40:33.000 --> 00:40:35.070 My theory was there should be 00:40:35.070 --> 00:40:36.000 no difference 00:40:36.000 --> 00:40:38.000 Between me having a web server 00:40:38.000 --> 00:40:42.000 With an mp3 file on it 00:40:42.000 --> 00:40:43.420 That people can click and 00:40:43.420 --> 00:40:44.000 download it 00:40:44.000 --> 00:40:45.480 To me having a file on a web 00:40:45.480 --> 00:40:46.000 server 00:40:46.000 --> 00:40:47.830 That you get to through BitTor 00:40:47.830 --> 00:40:48.000 rent 00:40:48.000 --> 00:40:49.000 It should make no difference, 00:40:49.000 --> 00:40:49.000 right? 00:40:49.000 --> 00:40:50.000 You don't need five people 00:40:50.000 --> 00:40:51.000 And get it? 00:40:51.000 --> 00:40:52.770 Yeah, no, I've had no problems 00:40:52.770 --> 00:40:53.000 at all 00:40:53.000 --> 00:40:56.000 But that is a bootstrap 00:40:56.000 --> 00:40:59.000 Because the ultimate fantasy 00:40:59.000 --> 00:41:01.530 Is to just have my computer at 00:41:01.530 --> 00:41:02.000 home 00:41:02.000 --> 00:41:05.000 Just let that be the one node 00:41:05.000 --> 00:41:06.000 if I'm publishing 00:41:06.000 --> 00:41:08.000 And if you're publishing 00:41:08.000 --> 00:41:10.000 If you want to broadcast 00:41:10.000 --> 00:41:11.380 There's gotta be some pain 00:41:11.380 --> 00:41:12.000 somewhere, right? 00:41:12.000 --> 00:41:13.650 I don't have a problem with 00:41:13.650 --> 00:41:14.000 that 00:41:14.000 --> 00:41:16.190 I think that I'm willing to do 00:41:16.190 --> 00:41:17.000 an experiment with this 00:41:17.000 --> 00:41:18.000 If you want 00:41:18.000 --> 00:41:19.610 First of all, let me ask you a 00:41:19.610 --> 00:41:20.000 question 00:41:20.000 --> 00:41:21.450 Are you willing to host these 00:41:21.450 --> 00:41:22.000 things 00:41:22.000 --> 00:41:23.770 On a torrent server up on your 00:41:23.770 --> 00:41:24.000 place? 00:41:24.000 --> 00:41:26.000 Yeah, these shows? Of course 00:41:26.000 --> 00:41:28.000 Okay, definitely 00:41:28.000 --> 00:41:30.000 Of course, you've been doing it 00:41:30.000 --> 00:41:31.000 with the daily source code 00:41:31.000 --> 00:41:33.000 The source code isn't... 00:41:33.000 --> 00:41:34.790 Exactly, that's not a BitTor 00:41:34.790 --> 00:41:36.000 rent download 00:41:36.000 --> 00:41:37.670 But of course, I have it all 00:41:37.670 --> 00:41:38.000 set up 00:41:38.000 --> 00:41:39.000 Why not? 00:41:39.000 --> 00:41:40.240 For exactly the reasons you 00:41:40.240 --> 00:41:41.000 just mentioned 00:41:41.000 --> 00:41:42.240 I didn't want people to fall 00:41:42.240 --> 00:41:43.000 off the edge of the map 00:41:43.000 --> 00:41:44.680 I want them to get the fucking 00:41:44.680 --> 00:41:45.000 show 00:41:45.000 --> 00:41:48.000 Yeah, well, okay 00:41:48.000 --> 00:41:49.000 Maybe we ought to do both, 00:41:49.000 --> 00:41:49.000 though 00:41:49.000 --> 00:41:50.370 So that people want to help 00:41:50.370 --> 00:41:51.000 bootstrap 00:41:51.000 --> 00:41:52.680 I mean, the beauty of the mail 00:41:52.680 --> 00:41:54.000 list that you've got there 00:41:54.000 --> 00:41:57.000 Is that it is sort of... 00:41:57.000 --> 00:41:59.200 It's like the early days of 00:41:59.200 --> 00:42:00.000 Frontier 00:42:00.000 --> 00:42:01.630 The mail list, we went for like 00:42:01.630 --> 00:42:02.720 two years without a single 00:42:02.720 --> 00:42:03.000 flame 00:42:03.000 --> 00:42:04.380 It was just like this great 00:42:04.380 --> 00:42:05.000 community 00:42:05.000 --> 00:42:08.000 And everybody was pitching in 00:42:08.000 --> 00:42:08.000 to help 00:42:08.000 --> 00:42:09.650 Actually, it was more than two 00:42:09.650 --> 00:42:10.000 years 00:42:10.000 --> 00:42:13.000 And so it's a great time to say 00:42:13.000 --> 00:42:16.320 Okay, let's do some things that 00:42:16.320 --> 00:42:18.000 are good for the internet 00:42:18.000 --> 00:42:20.000 And they'll go for it, I think 00:42:20.000 --> 00:42:21.000 And this is a beautiful thing 00:42:21.000 --> 00:42:22.000 because it doesn't require 00:42:22.000 --> 00:42:23.820 That you be a developer to do 00:42:23.820 --> 00:42:24.000 it 00:42:24.000 --> 00:42:25.910 You just have to be a technical 00:42:25.910 --> 00:42:26.000 user 00:42:26.000 --> 00:42:27.500 To set up BitTorrent on your 00:42:27.500 --> 00:42:28.000 desktop 00:42:28.000 --> 00:42:29.000 That's not a big deal 00:42:29.000 --> 00:42:30.320 If you've got a good pipe to 00:42:30.320 --> 00:42:31.000 the internet 00:42:31.000 --> 00:42:32.000 Then that's great 00:42:32.000 --> 00:42:33.000 I now have a great pipe 00:42:33.000 --> 00:42:35.390 I've got a high band with a 00:42:35.390 --> 00:42:37.000 cable set up here 00:42:37.000 --> 00:42:39.000 I'm smoking a great pipe, Dave 00:42:39.000 --> 00:42:41.000 Yeah, you're... 00:42:41.000 --> 00:42:45.000 Oh, yeah, well, you know 00:42:45.000 --> 00:42:47.000 God will get you... 00:42:47.000 --> 00:42:48.000 Maude used to say that 00:42:48.000 --> 00:42:50.000 Walter God will get you for 00:42:50.000 --> 00:42:50.000 that one 00:42:50.000 --> 00:42:51.000 Oh 00:42:51.000 --> 00:42:54.000 So we got a couple of questions 00:42:54.000 --> 00:42:55.000 I want to switch 00:42:55.000 --> 00:42:55.730 Can I just finish up on the Bit 00:42:55.730 --> 00:42:57.000 Torrent really quick 00:42:57.000 --> 00:42:58.450 Because I think that I'd love 00:42:58.450 --> 00:42:59.000 to do that 00:42:59.000 --> 00:43:01.000 And of course I'm going to host 00:43:01.000 --> 00:43:01.830 all the tests that we're going 00:43:01.830 --> 00:43:02.000 to do 00:43:02.000 --> 00:43:05.000 But I think the real, as we say 00:43:05.000 --> 00:43:06.000 , the egg of Columbus 00:43:06.000 --> 00:43:10.280 Is combining iPodder with 00:43:10.280 --> 00:43:12.000 publishing and receiving 00:43:12.000 --> 00:43:14.000 And BitTorrent all in one 00:43:14.000 --> 00:43:15.580 I mean, if we can have one 00:43:15.580 --> 00:43:16.000 thing 00:43:16.000 --> 00:43:17.320 And you have two folders on 00:43:17.320 --> 00:43:18.000 your desktop 00:43:18.000 --> 00:43:19.510 One is for receiving, one is 00:43:19.510 --> 00:43:20.000 for sending 00:43:20.000 --> 00:43:21.760 And the stuff that comes into 00:43:21.760 --> 00:43:23.000 the receive folder 00:43:23.000 --> 00:43:24.200 It may go automatically 00:43:24.200 --> 00:43:25.000 somewhere else 00:43:25.000 --> 00:43:26.570 But I think it's got to be that 00:43:26.570 --> 00:43:27.000 simple 00:43:27.000 --> 00:43:28.000 It does 00:43:28.000 --> 00:43:30.150 And I would encourage you at 00:43:30.150 --> 00:43:31.000 this moment 00:43:31.000 --> 00:43:32.590 Not to worry too much about the 00:43:32.590 --> 00:43:34.000 brain dead simplicity 00:43:34.000 --> 00:43:36.120 I think what you're doing is 00:43:36.120 --> 00:43:37.000 incredibly valuable 00:43:37.000 --> 00:43:40.000 You're defining the feature set 00:43:40.000 --> 00:43:41.810 Of what the ideal product will 00:43:41.810 --> 00:43:42.000 be 00:43:42.000 --> 00:43:44.800 And I plan to work on this once 00:43:44.800 --> 00:43:45.000 we... 00:43:45.000 --> 00:43:46.070 I mean, and that doesn't mean I 00:43:46.070 --> 00:43:47.510 'm the only one that plans to 00:43:47.510 --> 00:43:48.000 work on this 00:43:48.000 --> 00:43:50.230 But after the open source 00:43:50.230 --> 00:43:51.600 release of Frontier has 00:43:51.600 --> 00:43:52.000 happened 00:43:52.000 --> 00:43:53.980 I hope to get some developers 00:43:53.980 --> 00:43:55.000 to work with me on this 00:43:55.000 --> 00:43:56.580 I've already talked with a few 00:43:56.580 --> 00:43:57.000 people 00:43:57.000 --> 00:43:59.000 On exactly that 00:43:59.000 --> 00:44:00.570 And create something that's r 00:44:00.570 --> 00:44:01.000 ommable 00:44:01.000 --> 00:44:03.000 That can be put onto, you know 00:44:03.000 --> 00:44:05.000 What do you mean rommable? 00:44:05.000 --> 00:44:07.000 I mean, rommable in the sense 00:44:07.000 --> 00:44:07.000 that 00:44:07.000 --> 00:44:08.550 I don't literally mean nothing 00:44:08.550 --> 00:44:10.000 is really rommable anymore 00:44:10.000 --> 00:44:12.000 Rommable means... 00:44:12.000 --> 00:44:14.000 It used to be, well, you know, 00:44:14.000 --> 00:44:14.000 you're... 00:44:14.000 -->
