It occurred to me that highlighting Adrian's problems would take on much greater power if he created a video blog. At present, his pic is unclear. I can't tell if the engine is running, whether the warning lights are on... [Read More]

That's about as entertaining as an interview could possibly be!

Funny stuff. I hope he does get some of 'dem RSS enclosure thingies.

Surprised we haven't seen that guy on Comedy Central!

Great interview.

He's funny, but the best part was when you busted his balls over RSS enclosures-- now that's some internet comedy.

Cool intervew! He is one interesting character. His rendition of "I Just Called..." was great. Stevie Wonder would be proud.

Steve, Loved the interview. One thing though, no wonder I've never seen David Pogue on video before. Not only does he NOT have a video blog, but you'd be damn lucky to get the streaming video to play on your computer if you can find it and follow it. It's a link off his homepage to an NYTimes search that contains streaming video that do to the browser and plugin detection generally is impossible to access on the mac. :(

I'm not guessing to many people are finding those clips. They're about as inaccessible as can be. :( However I would love to see more of David Pogues tips and would gladly subscribe if he can wrangle them into and RSS feed. You peaked my interest, yet no sale do to the accessibility. ;(

Now what's this about cringley getting a video blog!? More details please! Are we talking honest to god video blog with RSS 2.0 w/ enclosures? What about media RSS and XFN and that itunes stuff, don't forget about that. I heard feedburner just started supporting that! :)

Hi Michael,
I passed your comments along to David.

As for Cringley, they just have this page up and give no indication of supporting RSS 2.0.

As I was watching, I was thinking I would subscribe, but I won't go to the web page, just as you were asking the enclosures question ... nice interview ... funny too ..

Steve this interview takes the cake. Thanks for asking my question, I didn't think he'd actually do it! :) And I totally knew about his weekly videos because I TOTALLY subscribe to his column. Hooray for tech.

If David joined us, Rocketboom would be unstoppable!

Pogue's stuff is a touch hidden (not that bad, a link on the front of his home page) and the NYTimes video plays fine in WMP, old Safari, and OS X 10.2.8.

Glad he's finally doing it. He's been talking about it forever. Here's one:

I wonder if he'll still use Sorensen? :-)

Hello Steve
This is England calling ;->
I work for Birmingham City Council and have responsibility for eResources, including eg www.bgfl.org (oh, btw, we now also have RSS available from our site....) I'm doing some work around podcasting and video casting to support education, community learning etc.....have you any experience in these fields and any tips you could pass on? PS - I thought the David Pogue interview was excellent - a great way to sell video blogging to the unitiated!

Wow, can't believe I hadn't seen that yet. Anyway, that was really interesting. I knew he was a funny guy, but didn't realize how funny.
