The pilot episode of Deantastic Podcast is here!<br /><br />Before we go any further, let me just say this: <strong>this is one crappy episode </strong>in terms of audio quality. I'm still learning the ropes of Adobe Audition and podcasting in general and I'm working with a basic 3.5-mm omnidirectional microphone. Apologies for the quality. I promise I'll get better in future episodes.<br /><br />It's also ridiculously short—five minutes for chrissake! I worked entirely off a script here. As soon as I get the hang of it, expect the podcast's runtime to lengthen.<br /><br />So, anyway, in this episode of the Deantastic Tech Podcast:<br /><ul><br /><li><strong>Skype for the iPhone. </strong>Skype finally releases a client for the iPhone platform.</li><br /><li><strong>Conficker Worm. </strong>D-Day came and went without anything really big happening. So is the Conficker scare over?</li><br /><li><strong>Microsoft Encarta shuts down. </strong>Didn't see <em>that </em>coming.</li><br /><li><strong>What the Internets did for April Fools'. </strong>Google has CADIE, <em>The Guardian </em>goes Twitter, Plurk goes Bitter.</li></ul><a title="Deantastic Tech Podcast Episode 01" href="http://www.archive.org/download/DeantasticTechPodcastEpisode01/deantastic-tech-podcast-episode-01.mp3">Download the MP3 of Episode 01 here</a> or listen to it using the embedded player below.
