New podcast series

Tue, 22 Jun 2010 16:55:15 GMT

A couple of weeks ago, a friend of mine (Craig Tataryn) asked me if I could participate along with him and other people in a weekly podcast. Jeff Genender, Justin Lee and Jason Whaley also agreed to join in this effort. Thus, The Basement Coders Podcast came to be, and I think we've had some interesting conversations so far, ranging from Mainframes to Cloud Computing and Web Sockets. Unfortunately I've been sick and wasn't able to make it to the last 2 or 3, but I fully intend to come back.

If you have an hour or so per week, I'd fully recommend you listen to the podcast, and of course, leave comments on how we can improve it. You can also follow the podcast's twitter @bcoders. I think we have some very interesting topics to cover in the near future, and suggestions are always welcome.

public class JavaPosse extends JavaCast implements PodCast

A couple of months ago I presented a Podcast related to Java, Javacast. Well, for reasons that are still unknown to me, javacast went 'out of the air'.

But they are back! Sort of... They have created a new endeavour, JavaPosse, which so far has had some interesting podcasts. Hopefully this time they'll stay 'on air' longer.

Java + podcast = JavaCast

I listened yesterday to the first JavaCast, which is an mp3-based talk show downloaded from the internet and played on your favorite player (yes, you don't have to own an iPod to listen to podcasts). I thought it was good in general, and I hope the quality of the interviews remain the same as the y move forward.

The interview with Craig R. McClanahan was interesting as it gave some background on how Struts came to be and what are the future plans for Struts, JSF and Struts+JSF. The talk about scripting in Java, though, felt more like a table of contents of what surely is a topic that needs more time to discuss.

When blogs started to appear, everyone and their relatives wanted to be part of it (I, of course, among them). But I won't be joining the podcasting scene anytime soon. It's one thing putting your thoughts on writing, and another totally different thing to just blurt everything out over some microphone.

Oh, and then there's the accent problem... ;)
