flickrcast - Episode 13

flickrcast@gmail.com (Bryan Campbell & Jason Matthews) — Thu, 2 Feb 2006 23:13:00 -0600

in case i don't see ya: good afternoon, good evening, and Episode 13.

as an experiment, i'm putting this one out without editing for content. i think it went smoothly enough in the recording that there's nothing that really screams to be cut out, but i'm not going to listen before releasing it. it may sound a little sloppy; somehow, life will go on.

i [jason] was more hoarse than mr. ed in this episode, so if you hear a lot of drinking noises, that'd be the reason.

flickrcast@gmail.com (Bryan Campbell & Jason Matthews) — Tue, 8 Nov 2005 18:58:00 -0600

sometime in the past two days, bryan, i, and MemoryMotel all had the idea that there ought to be a flickrcast group. MemoryMotel set it up, but has since turned over the admining duties to us. the group's just awaiting some new members now, so if you've got anything you want to discuss or anything you want to add to the pool (please read the group description for the type of pics to add), join us at the flickrcast group.

flickrcast - Episode 2

flickrcast@gmail.com (Bryan Campbell & Jason Matthews) — Mon, 31 Oct 2005 01:55:00 -0600

we slaved over a hot mixing board to bring you... Episode 2!

if we've been extremely lucky, the audio quality should be much better for this episode. we recorded our separate sides of the google talk conversation then mixed them together. hopefully jason got the syncing right... (i did, but i forgot to do some of the stereo separation and didn't notice until i'd already spent a half hour on editing and didn't feel like redoing all that. so bryan's voice is in the center this time rather than slightly over to the right. i'm still learning, kids! i also left in some parts that should have been edited but stayed because they amused me. they're not quite worksafe so listen from the safety of your headphones.)

links for this episode:

* theme music this time around was the rather obvious choice - birdw0rks' The Flickr Song.
* as reported previously, the big news of the week was flickr's introduction of printing services.

* please support awfulsara's Awful Print Drive.
* here you can preview some of the photos she has for sale.
* listener feedback was from user zabethanne.
* the much-maligned deleteme group.
* ...and the corresponding group for everything that was voted "saveme."
* a more lighthearted group - bryan's pick this week is Don't Take My Picture!

flickrcast - Episode 1

flickrcast@gmail.com (Bryan Campbell & Jason Matthews) — Mon, 24 Oct 2005 06:09:00 -0500

hey, it's [finally] the first episode!

we recorded via google talk so periodically you'll hear the bandwidth issues hit us as bryan's voice crackles and fades a bit. so it goes. we also ran a little longer than planned; we're wanting to be in the 20-30 minute range. sorry.
