Podcasting Legal Guide
The fine folks over at Creative Commons have just released a legal guide for podcasters. It seems to cover just about anything you need to know if you’re podcasting – how to navigate the very complex world of copyright and create podcasts that are not illegal (if you like that sort of thing). They’ve also posted a few podcast plugs from CC-friendly artists: DJ Spooky, Kristin Hersh, and yes even yours truly. You can plop them in and show everybody how hep you are. Mine is really boring. But that’s how I roll.

That stands for “visual thing a week.” Hot off the…presses? Pressure sensitive Wacom tablet? Here is Len’s image for this week’s thing:
Dude: you continue to rock…
Thing a Week 31 – Just as Long as Me
I wrote this song for a documentary a friend is working on about being tall (and in case he is reading this: yes, I certainly do owe him a phone call). Some people fake the funk, me, I fake the bluegrass. And this feller in this song, you see, he’s extremely tall and he would like to find a tall woman. I like the vocals and I’m pretty proud of the word play in the chorus, but I think this song could be much improved by the addition of a little fiddle – any bluegrass fiddle players out there?

OK, I get it. Everyone loves cute monkeys. Everyone wants a shirt with a cute monkey on it. Frankly I think Len may be a little tired of drawing for me, especially when it comes to monkeys. So here’s what we’re going to do: cute monkey contest! If you want a cute monkey shirt, then design a cute monkey shirt and send me the image. By doing so you agree to let me put it on merchandise that I will sell back to you at CafePress without giving you a dime. Sounds like a great deal doesn’t it? Well, that’s business baby. That’s the business of cute monkeys on shirts. I created a space in the forums where you can post your very adorable monkey images. You have until one week from today to submit, then we will all vote.
