Deductive Developers Episode 2

In episode 2 we discuss a couple of open source news items, some of the exciting stuff going on with the Hackfest at OpenCF Summit, and talk a bit about a topic every techie loves: keeping your resume updated!

Quick aside--Matt apologizes for the crappy sound quality on his side. The offending headset has been ceremoniously smashed and set afire. A new headset is already on the way, as the Blue Yeti mic is also in the wings.

Here's the links/notes from this episode:

Craig's List Donates $100,000 to the Perl Foundation

- Matt confesses he hasn't updated his in 5 1/2 years and might not even know where it is anymore. #FAIL

We'll be podcasting from OpenCF Summit!

Probably goes without saying but since Peter and I will both be at OpenCF Summit we'll do some podcasts while we're there. Heck, maybe we'll even do a Google+ Hangout. Of course you should really attend in person since it's a fantastic event for only $72 measley bucks, but for those of you who can't make it this will be the next best thing.

Deductive Developers Episode 1

deductivedevelopers@maepub.com (Deductive Developers) — Sun, 22 Jan 2012 09:53:00 -0800

Welcome to the premiere episode of Deductive Developers, a new podcast by Peter J. Farrell and Matt Woodward, formerly of ColdFusion Weekly fame.

In this episode we talk a bit about why we're starting a new podcast and what we're going to cover, and we talk a bit about OpenCF Summit which is coming up on February 24 - 26 in Dallas, TX.

Some differences between this and CF Weekly:

We aren't committing to doing this weekly necessarily
Shorter episodes (15 - 30 minutes)
Not focused exclusively on CFML-related topics
More conversational, less strict format

Obligatory first episode quality excuses -- my aging Logitech headset was making a small banging noise as the cord moved but hopefully it's not too distracting. I'll use a different setup for the next episode.

Feedback is very welcomed! You can reach us in the following ways:

We'll get the podcast added to the iTunes directory soon but in the mean time you can use the FeedBurner RSS URL to subscribe: http://feeds.feedburner.com/deductivedevelopers/kHbZ

Let us know what you think!
