What is WWFD? well you’ll need to listen in to find out

I’ve been slightly askew in my reading of late, so the resulting show you get is a bit more geeky and more design based than normal. I hope you enjoy these different takes on things. I also showcase a new video i made called Learning from Stupid, its exactly what it sounds like…

I make mistakes and you get to listen, laugh and hopefully learn a bit.I’ve been thinking about different ways to make the show more engaging and hopefully some of them will come to fruition in the short term. The first video is up in this episode, expect more to come after that, different things, some coffee tech, some lectures and talks i’ve done. I have a lot of things that need to be edited, i just have to make the time to do it now.Who doesn’t like free stuff? Hows about free awesome stuff?

The Podcast Madness continues, they’re now giving away an Epson Artisan 810, on a spiffy new site no less. I love Epson printers, you simply can’t beat them for clarity and brilliant colors, and these loons are giving a good printer away scott free. Well you do have to listen in to our show and the others in the mix to get you chances.

Today’s Show:  writing, Irish coffee, power, coasters, oragami, robots, legos, solar power, geeks, nerds, dorks, Cake, Coffee

Gadgets are fun, in fact there are more websites dedicated to tiny little technological trinkets than you could shake a stick at, or several sticks if the mood struck you. Gadgets are small little baubles that make eyes light up and wallets open, a selection of small links with big fun is what is in store for today. Tight economic times call for frugal spending, but who couldn’t resits just one more shiny object.

Every show we focus on ways to save you money, in this case we are outing the plain silly products, while focusing on some winners along the way. I also give a quick rundown on how to streamline your writing for the web, make a new version of an old favorite hot toddy, and showcase a couple fun DIY projects.

So Please Enjoy the show and Stay Caffeinated!
