Podcasting with Coté 
November 1st, 2006
We had a fun time yesterday shooting the shit with Coté discussing what is going on at Nitobi, OpenAjax Alliance happenings, RIA, the state of Ajax (always the innevitable topic) and the old Enterprise Ajax book - which is now ready for pre-sales
- amongst several other things.
On another note - that whole JotSpot deal is pretty interesting

Enterprise Ajax Podcast 15 
October 22nd, 2006
This one was supposed to be out a long time ago but Andre tried to pull a fast one on us! We talk about a fiew things like Canadian Thanksgiving, OpenAjax Alliance, AjaxWorld, Testing and Debugging.
There are likely some quality problems and I think that Andre’s recording died before the end so Alexei and I have to pretend like we know stuff.
Get it while it’s hot!

The Amazing $5000 Podcast 
September 15th, 2006
Interesting email came in this morning. The OpenAjax alliance had been invited (to our greatest surprise and dismay) to take part in a podcast series about Ajax with the analyst firm ZapThink. At first thought it seems very reasonable. However, when you actually read the small print (ok it wasn’t that small) they wanted people to pay $5000 for the chance to talk on their podcast! Of course they are gracious enough to give people referred by IBM - who are a driving force behind OpenAjax - a whopping $1000 discount. Well sign me up!
They try to sell the idea to us by saying that they have literally _hundreds_ of downloads per podcast! I mean come on. Even the no good useless pukes that are Dave, Andre and Alexei were able to quickly pass the century download mark with our little audio recording about Ajax.
The real icing on the cake comes when they try to justify the price by saying:
There is a cost involved - in part to defray the costs of producing and distributing the podcast, and in part because as sponsors they get marketing visibility and leads.
Oh that’s right - the large costs associated with podcasting like that $29.95 for the headset and maybe some sort of opensource recording software. If it weren’t for the high cost I am sure that more people would be flocking to podcasts … It reminds me of the talk we had with ZapThink a while back. No wonder so many people are happy to talk to Redmonk. The greatest part about them is that we did a podcast with Cote (granted it was the podcast from hell) and we didn’t have to pay with anything but our time!
I think we will try charging the next people that come on our podcast
