Johnny D’s Live Streaming Video
As an experiment (which is very dangerous and may get me killed!) I am going to try streaming the show at Johnny D’s live to the internet. Hard to predict if it will work without actually being there to test it ahead of time, but my fingers are crossed, and tests I’ve done at home using various configurations seem to work out just fine. Paul and Storm go on at 9:30, at which point I will be broadcasting but probably still messing with the camera. I’ll be on sometime after that. If you’d like to watch, just tune your browser to here: http://ustream.tv/channel/joco-live.
For those of you who’d like to embed this on a web page or plaster it up on a surface in SecondLife, you can find the code to do that on that page. Wish me luck!
Happy FOM
If you are an aspiring internet superstar I highly recommend you write a song about a particular day of the year. That way, at least once a year your technorati ranking will skyrocket. The internet celebrates in these ways:
Paul of ADDCast sends this cover of First of May, featuring an all-star cast of podcasters trading off lines “band-aid” style in support of the Joe Murphy Memorial Fund.
Today on the FuMP you’ll find a live version of First of May as performed by me with Paul and Storm when we were at the Cutting Room in NYC last month.
And while this is not First of May related, I can’t help myself. The top featured video on YouTube today is this new (to me at least) Code Monkey video. Wait for the Darth Vader dance…
Extra, Extra
Tomorrow night I’m doing a photo shoot for something that will appear in the Sunday New York Times Magazine. Huzzah! I’ll tell you later. For now, I’m looking for a couple of people (exactly two actually) who can be extras, just hanging out in the background, most likely pretending to work on a laptop while they sip coffee and steal wifi. You would have to be in Park Slope from about 6:30-9 Wednesday night, dressed in your regular clothes, enjoying your coffee. If you’re interested, send me an email through the contact link up there on the top of this page.
Attention Lovers of Talking
It is time for you to check out this growing but already big-enough-to-overwhelm collection of free lectures from around the web: Listening To Words. All kinds of kwazy stuff in there, including at least one lecture relating to bears. Yet somehow, impossibly, none about monkeys. Even I am in there, though technically singing songs does not a lecture make – I suspect some rules were bent (I know a guy).
The really nice thing about listening to lectures when you get to be my age is that you don’t have to take notes or worry about the paper you’re going to write. I’m done with school suckers!
