I feel like its been a long time since I’ve been able to keep up with this blog. I feel that way, because it has been.
There’s two main reasons why things have been quiet around here lately. First, it seems that everything interesting I’m involved with comes with a non-disclosure agreement. I’ve been involved in some promising software testing/feedback, an advisory panel and a new product launch – all of which I’d love to blog about, but I can’t. When I can, I’ll be sure to head straight back here!
My podcast (Netcot) has been featured in iTunes for 30+ months and counting!
Secondly, I’ve found myself spending more time focusing on one of my other websites. For those of you who don’t know, that site (Netcot) has been around for a long time now, but its found new life in the last 3 years with the launch of my weekly podcast. I continue to be amazed at how many people discover the site and podcast and become huge fans. I’ll admit, I never get tired of hearing people rave (or even give constructive criticism) about the site/show.
One of the main ways people discover the site is through the elusive iTunes “feature” mechanism. Its not clear to anyone exactly how shows are picked to be on this, but Netcot has been a featured podcast in the Kids & Family category for over 30 months and counting! I even saw a mention this past week that it was featured in the main area of iTunes (I’m still trying to get someone to produce the evidence — but I’m hopeful I’ll see it!).
So if you were wondering, that’s why its been quiet around here. With Notes 8.0.2 out now, Lotusphere 2009 around the corner and a new role I’m starting to take on at my company, I’m sure the silence is short-lived
