A talk from BayCHI about SmartPhones plus dock

by philg

Here is a 51-minute audio clip of me talking about the SmartPhone + Dock >> PC idea.  (I think that the first portion of the MP3 has to do with BayCHI administration announcements.)  If you hear background noise, it is people walking out of the somewhat hot and stuffy room.  The speaker who preceded me was scheduled to talk for 30 minutes, but spent 1.5 hours going through a PowerPoint presentation.  Edward Tufte likes to remind people always to end early, but apparently not everyone heeds his advice regarding this or the evils of PowerPoint.


Normally I try to delete comments that fall into the “this sucked” or “this was great” category (on the grounds that other readers have already consumed the posting in question and aren’t interested in someone else’s opinion of its quality, but only in an alternative perspective on the same subject).  In this case, however, I’d appreciate some feedback on whether this kind of audio clip has value to readers/listeners.  If people love it, perhaps I’ll try to do more.

  1. I really enjoyed listening — wish I could have been there in person! Please post stuff like this again in the future.

  2. I like to listen to Andrew Grumet’s audio posts. Your ITConversations interview and some of the O’Reilly ones (and Malcom Gladwell’s talks) are still living in my MP3 player. I agree with Glenn, stuff like this would be very welcome.

  4. Yes, very good. I would like to hear more of this sort of thing.

    And I, too, enjoyed your IT Conversations interview. Perhaps you should more prominently link to it from your main web site? (The only link I’m aware of is somewhere in the depths of this weblog, but I haven’t spent a lot of time searching…)

  6. “O’Reilly ones (and Malcom Gladwell’s talks) are still living in my MP3 player. I agree with Glenn, stuff like this would be very welcome. ”

    Where are these audio clips located? I seem to have missed these ones.

  7. Wonderful presentation. I wish I had you for a teacher. Clearly, you’re prepared but the talk doesn’t sound rehearsed. I’ll subscribe to any audio/video feed you provide.
