Kc241 : "Narrowcasting".
Aug 03In show 41 we have more Questions then answers as we wonder out loud what it would take to build a “narrowcasting” system. What would it take to construct a computer system that provides us with the information WHICH we need, WHEN we need it , Where we need it. How about building your own version of HALL 9000 to provide you with the weather, the headlines in the news, your calendar and more in the morning, and show you the TV programs that are on in the evening. Using open source technology we take a closer look at “Narrowcasting”.

Kc240 : "Cycles and Stories".
Jul 23For show 40 we take a break from the high-tech content we’ve focused on the last few episodes and take a little “interlude”. In light of tradition this is going to be another soundseeing tour where I take you along on my bike. We drive through the region where I live and listen to the birds chime as I tell you what i’m looking at. This time its your IMAGINATION that is going to work for you as you can close your eyes , lean back and hear me tell stories about NO-tech cycling adventures and some impressions of the beautiful Belgian countryside.
