Under The Wire

I love the synchronicity of this post. In terms of the context of its content. Because I was watching a "recent" "Cranky Geeks" episode, and John C. Dvorak was going on about the early days of blogging and how annoyingly pathetic it was for early bloggers to blab on and on in lengthy posts about missing posts. They'd apologize endlessly to their audiences for not maintaining a certain schedule, and for what reason? It's not as though anyone is really hanging on our words. Certainly not mine. It's all garbage in its own way. Well maybe not garbage, I do have some pride in the shit I'm spewing. :P But I mean seriously, the world wouldn't end if I missed a post.

Luckily I'll never have to test that theory, at least not yet, 'cause I didn't miss tonight's post. But this is definitely the "latest" I've ever put one out. I usually like to get them in, around, or before the 3 a.m. hour. For some reason that didn't happen "today". I say "today", 'cause in reality "today" is "tomorrow"... but given the way I've set up these posts, they're sorta shifted a day ahead. I know, this is incredibly fascinating. :P

But yeah, I've just been utterly consumed with media in the last few days. More so than usual. I think it's because I'm all out of audio podcasts, well I'm outta audio period. So I've been spending a lot of my time tethered to the iMac consuming video. I've already mentioned it, but I'm really making a dent in all the back-logged episodes of "Cranky Geeks" I've got saved. I'm LOVING those. It's definitely in my top three favorite video podcasts. By the way, I hate the term "vlog", you'll never "hear" me use it in any serious fashion. But uh... yeah, I'm digging the video stuff... and unlike audio, it's much harder to hold-off on once you start going. Once I finish one show, I gotta go right into the next. You know how it is once you get into a "zone" of any kind, it's so hard to pull yourself out of it. So what's why I'm posting so late. I couldn't unglue my eyes. ;)

Anyway, I'll hopefully get that under control seeing as how I don't plan to screw up my posting schedule, and I also don't plan on letting up on all the video I'm watching. In fact, it should get more crazed since I'm looking to add more video feeds into iTunes once I catch up with "Cranky Geeks" and "Cool Hunting". I'm thinking I'll finally have some time to dedicate toward scaling the mountain of unwatched video that is, "Diggnation". :P Oh by the way, if you haven't checked it out already you should check out "Webb Alert", Morgan Webb's new 5-minute vidcast... it's short and sweet. A beautiful short-form alternative. Ooooh, speaking of kick ass tech chicks, I'm dying to see what Veronica Belmont's new podcast will be like, I think that's suppose to debut sometime this month if I'm not mistaken. I saw her on one of the older "Cranky Geeks" episodes I was catching up on, and yowsa, if I were straight... I'd be totally obsessed. She's amazing. :P Anyway, time to head out. I think I've done this post proud. ;)

DS333, utterly consumed.
