Green Chucks and Ham Inaugural Episode!

This is my first FULL attempt at podcasting. Sorry, the audio is quiet (read: horrible). For our first episode, I brought along a good friend of mine, Nathan Cordero. He and I go way back, and as luck would have it, both moved to the Upstate New York area around the same time. In this episode, we discuss music, flatulence, serial killers, and the RIAA. We use colorful language, so there is a EXPLICIT tag on it.

I've Found a Social Network For Me!

I'm usually an early adopter on most things social. I was one of the first million users of Twitter, an early user of FriendFeed, and a beta tester of Ping.FM. I have always had an enjoyment for the togetherness of the masses that the Web has brought us in the last few years.

When it comes to music based, social networks, I have used Slacker, iMeem, and Last.FM (which was probably my favorite). A number of the people I follow on Twitter were posting some of the things they were listening to, from Blip.FM, in their Twitter stream, and I had to check it out. 

Now, this is my first day using it, but I love it. It isn't really set up like a radio station (like Last.FM). It's more user-centric. It is laid out like a Twitter stream, with the artist and song info in the stream, and buttons to re-blip, give "props'" and add the selected song to your own playlist. It's essentially like re-tweeting, @-ing someone, and adding favorites. Have I said how much I really like this?

You can find more at Blip.FM and follow my stream here.
