GOTN – Geek of the North #7 – Disconnected RamblingsPosted on February 25th, 2010 by Mike in Blog, PodcastThis podcast brought to you by FlightRadio.com – Your source for Air Traffic and aircraft frequencies for your Radio scanner Today I talk about a use for Google Reader that wasn’t available a week ago. I talk about Google Listen for Android. I’m about to retire my iPod for Podcast Listening. My Droid does it all! I played a song called “google” from Tom Smith over at Musicalley.com Starting March 1st there will be a new podcast from GOTN called “Today in Aviation History” . See the post below this for information on how to get that. Like to say thank you to Mike from Perth, NSW, Australia and Jim From Ohio for joining me on ustream.tv for the live recording. It was great chatting with you guys after the show! Thanks for Listening! Catch you Next week!

Today in Aviation History – Podcast starts March 1stPosted on February 24th, 2010 by Mike in Blog, Podcast, Today in Aviation HistoryPodcast (tiah): Play in new window | Download (Duration: 1:05 — 1,010.2KB) The second show here on Geek of the North will begin as a daily (7 days a week) podcast talking about all the things that happened on this day in history of aviation. As you know, I am an aviation geek and I’m also a History geek. So why not combine my passions and create a short (5 min. or so) daily podcast? Well, I’m going to do it. I will have more information here on Geek of the North in a week or so. **Update – The new podcast RSS feed is – http://geekofthenorth.com/feed/tiah/ – Just cut an paste this into your favorite podcatcher – It should be listed in the itunes store soon. ** Tune in Thursday to a podcatcher near you for the regular weekly Geek of the North Podcast. -Mike As you can see, I’ve been tweaking and tweaking the look of this website. Partly because I could never get it “just right” and partly because I’m having a ball learning more and more about Wordpress. As you also know, I’ve had a couple of false starts on launching the podcast. Part of that is I was trying to do a show that isn’t my style. Much like Strange Today. That was a great podcast, but it wasn’t “me” and if I can’t just be me, then I’m not motivated to do it on a regular basis. So, to that end, I’ve widened the scope of what I want this show to be. It’s going to be ME talking about the tech subjects that I like to talk about in a way that I like to talk about them. Relaxed, unscripted and comfortable. Like I’m talking to you over a beer or cup of coffee. I hope you will like the new format. I’m also going to be sticking to a strict schedule. (yeah, I’ve said that before) So, anyway… My schedule is as follows: Monday: No Podcasts. Use this for Web work Unscheduled: ipadio updates (see www.mikedell.com for info on that) and / or record Mike Dell’s World (unplugged feed) Also, record for www.flightradio.com as needed. I want to take my podcasting to the next level of dependability. I really appreciate that you take a slice of time out of your week to listen to me and I think it’s only fair that I make sure I’m there for that time, every time and all the time. -Mike Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 27:52 — 31.9MB) Stories from today’s podcast: Hams win Prizes – http://www.arrl.org/ Stanley Tools acquires Black & Decker – What will they come up with?

(no, not that one) And being a geek about Aviation, Radio, Broadcasting, Cars, Tractors and Motorcycles I figured I would do a podcast that reflects those interests and leave the cellphone and computer stuff to the other great podcasts out there. Geek Of The North will be a weekly audio podcast and the blog will be updated as needed to keep you up to date on your favorite off-beat tech stuff. I’m happy to bring it to you from the North Coast of the USA (Northern Michigan). If you have any news or comments you would like for me to see, either comment here on the blog or send me an email at geekofthenorth (at) gmail dot com. If you are a geek about Air Traffic Control please visit my long un-updated (but soon to be updated) site www.flightradio.com For my personal blog/podcast check out www.mikedell.com. A Show about nothing according to Mike James over at www.thinksmedia.com Enjoy! -Mike Welcome to the new website for the Geek Of The North. This will be a podcast and blog about Tech (doh!) from a Geek living in the northwoods of Michigan. Not exactly the center of the Tech universe. Stay tuned for more.
