An Early Reminder
As I usually make a last minute announcement, I wanted to float the reminder regarding Sunday’s FlashCast a little earlier this week.
If you have any comments, questions, or suggestions, call our voicemail line at (206) 338-2792, or email us text or mp3s to skinner@skinner.fm.
As we’ve mentioned before, don’t be nervous about flubbing a call-in, Jessica May is a kind editor.
Since your move I haven’t gotten an email about new posts so I guess I have to resubscribe. Is it a glitch or maybe you should post that so others can too.
Nuts. I’ll dig into it, thanks for the notification.
OK, it seems that you were subscribed via some sort of wordpress specific service, so now I’ve got to figure out how to ping those folks that my/their feeds are broken.
Thanks again for letting me know.
Serious question(s) for the ‘Cast:
You post a lot, and even your non-pulp pieces seem to require a decent bit of research. How much daily effort goes into the blog? On top of that, the work your co-conspirators do to get the podcasts done? And how much (not counting your recent move) does it just weigh on your mind? That can be opened up for everyone, not just you.
And a follow up. As you’ll see later tonight on my site, I am taking a week off for peace of mind. I’m doing a theme week of the “best,” so to speak, of my movie reviews, some of which date back several years and have barely seen the light of WordPress. I have a back inventory of 450 blogs (check my index) so I can pull out a lot that people likely haven’t read. Do you ever just want to walk away from it all for awhile? And do you see yourself taking any time off?
Unrelated.
This isn’t for the podcast, just for my edification. What are the advantages of moving away from WordPress? It seems mostly to be more work with little upside. I am more than happy not having the headaches of self-hosting, but as I’ve said before, I think you have (and very rightly so) loftier ambitions for your site than I have for mine.
I’m a bit amok, but I’ll cover these in tonight’s episode – I was already planning on talking a bit about the advantages of the move.
