As you may have noticed there has been a distinct lack of shows lately. We've had scheduling issues and sickness.

We have hit a bit of a dead end, and have decided to take a prolonged break to regroup, restructure, and sort our thoughts.

Not sure when we'll be back but keep your eyes pealed.

thanks for your ongoing support and patience

Today I decided to redirect our lowleveltech.net domain to the libsyn site. The Drupal installation doesn't add anything (much) atm, and to keep our live simple I decided to cut the site maintenance in half :)

We're working on a few others things that will be linked in in future to keep you all better informed of future shows etc :)

thanx

This week Red Iron Fist joined us as we resurrected the "random banter" type episodes. We discussed a wide range of topics and had a little more than an hour worht of audio.

This morning I sat down to edit ti only to find out that my audio had been recorded double. Causing a funky reverb type thing. Completely useless :s

So unfortunalty we won't have a show this week either....

We recorded our episode as always last Friday and it was a good show. Too bad the audio is so shagged I can't make anything form it. So unfortunatly there won't be a show this week either... Hopefully next weeek the podcast gods will be more favourable to the show...

Unfortunatly we need to inform you of another week of no show. This week Bol needed to go to England for most of the week. He will be back tomorrow (Saturday) but as it's my gf's birthday, I won't be around to record a show. We might be able to squeeze one in on Monday/Tuesday but so far we have no plans to do this, so assume the next show will be next Friday's one.

I know how annoyig it is if a podcast you listen too keeps being canceled. And rest assured we'll try and cut these no-shows down in future. to keep  you all informed I'll tell you some of the shows we have planned in the near future:

1. More in the "Creating webistes series". Unfortunatly for these there is no time frame due to Red Iron Fist's busy schedule
2. The security series. 3 show's we have definately planned in this series will be:
   
1. Phishing: what is it? How do is recognize it? etc.
   
2. Passwords: ebtter password policies. Suggestions on how to use/thnk of passwords
3. Deleting data securely: these days people trade old harddisks, cellphones etc on Ebay. This show will explain how to securely remvoe the data of such devices so that "the bad guys" don't get your data
3. Switching to Mac. The (currently) last episode in our switching too series.
4. Digital Photography: Another episode with Red, so unfortunatly no time on this one
5. Gadget Mania: an episode on some well kow gadgets and how/why we got addicted to them

I hope these topics draw your interst. If not... send us an email at lowleveltech@lowleveltech.net for suggestions/requests.

thanx

Due to a few things we can't record the show this week. Bol's plans and my work prevent us from having the time to sit down and record.

This weeks topic (get into podcasting) will move back a few weeks. Next week we have Red Iron Fist coming back to join us, so we can't just move everything back one week.

We promise to let you know the revised schedule soon :)

Sorry for the week off folks..

Last night we noticed some odd behavior on the site, I grabbed a quick backup and then had to head to bed. This mornign I was greated by a site destroyed :(

Not quite sure what is wrong, but as my personal blog suffered a same fate I am guessing we had a not so nice visitor...

Anyways until I can fix the site I've redirected the domain here, so you can all still get the podcast and read how things areg going with the fixing....

Hope to have the main site back soon, but the next week is a busy one so not sure if I can get it sorted before my break...

Just a quick post to get the feed listed on Odeo

<a href="http://odeo.com/claim/feed/94e9bd2c8c717525">My Odeo Channel</a> (odeo/94e9bd2c8c717525)

Right for those of you who got led here by iTunes...we do have our own url. We use libsyn as they are a great company for letting us host our podcasts, but we figured we wanted full control of our site, so we set up http://lowleveltech.net

come visit us there if you want
