Spat coffee all over my keyboard when I heard my name on this week’s podcast. Alas, I can’t take the credit for the story you mentioned – I just tweeted the link to it when I found it. The story was actually written by Anoop Madhusudanan for his “Amazed Saints” blog.
(Congrats on pronouncing my Twitter name/company name irascian right – it was a very poor attempt to find a unique word that could be used in Google for uniqueness etc and stems from the words “Irascible” and “Ian” – alas if you don’t know that it’s hard to know how it should be pronounced – a fundamental flaw on my part!).
Anyway, congratulations on the new podcast. Looking forward to future episodes and hope to get to meet “in person” at MIX10 (I’ll try to not be too “irascible”
)
