Mark June 26^th on your calendar, Jeff and I are trying something new. Maximum Geek is going to be coming out only 3 times a month, in that 4^th slot we’re doing a new podcast, one about writing AND reading, a literary podcast if you like. It’s the Writerly Stuff cast, we’ll cover books we’re reading, what we’re writing and hopefully keep us motivated and you guys entertained.

Well we did record an MG tonight. There were technical issues and I’ll be posting a partial cast tomorrow, but it’s very short and we didn’t hit our main topics. But I’ll have the cast up tomorrow with notes.

Update: Too much going on today and some editing involved in getting this one up. So it looks like tomorrow for this Half Geek. Depending on how things fall out next weeks MG may be delayed, as soon as I know I’ll give you guys an update.

Alright, we had Alan back this week and we managed to barely talk about Palm or Apple. Here is what we did cover.

•  Genesis Tour
• Seadragon and Photosynth
  http://www.break.com/index/ridiculously-cool-technology-from-microsoft.html
  http://labs.live.com/photosynth/
• Wireless electricity
  http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/07/mits-wireless-electricity-demoed-dubbed-witricity/
• Pac Man 2
  http://www.joystiq.com/2007/06/06/pac-man-championship-edition-hands-on/
• Shannara and Thundercat movies
• Constructible Card Games Pirates and Transformers
•  The New Star Wars Constructible Card Game (which is indeed awesome now that I have a few things from it).
• Mobile Minute
  • Initiate
  • The Palm Gandolph

Lots of good stuff int his episode, let us know what you think.

Maximum Geek Vol. 2 Ep. 8 is live and ready for your downloading pleasure. This is an episode with some really great content (and really poor sound quality, Blog Talk Radio has its down side). As a result of the poor sound quality and various technical issues which Blog Talk Radio has caused the last two weeks we’re going to stop doing it live every week. Every so often we’ll do a special live show (which we will announce on the website). Anyway, down to the show notes. Most of the show is dominated by talk of the Foleo and its two recently announced competitors.

• Speed Racer details
• Starwars, the force unleashed
• Canon 50 megapixel CCD
• Pico ITX
• Dells new uber slim laptop Link
• Foleo
  • Eee PC - Link
  • Via Nanobook Link    
• What Palm, Apple and Microsoft have in common

I’d like to say thank you to our guests Alan Grassia (host of the 1src podcast and Foleo Fanatic and JAmerican (from the 1src chat). Alan will be returning next week to talk about something completely different, constructible card games. Again, next week we move back to our tried and true Teamspeak recorded podcasts.

Tuesday Jeff and I will be doing our first Maximum Geek Live Cast. We’re using Blog Talk Radio so it’s definitly going to be a bit of an experiment. So if you’re interested here are the details.

Tuesday May 15th at 8pm Central

http://www.blogtalkradio.com/maxgeek is the site to listen

(347) 996-3771 is the number to call to tell us that we’re full of crap.

I’ll post the topics monday night, just let us know if there are any questions.

Alright, the first episode of the Maximum Geek Comic Cast is live. It should be available on iTunes shortly, or you can subscribe directly to the feed here.

It’s a little rough but it’s the first episode. Drop into the Comic Cast site at www.maximumgeek.org/comiccast and let me know what you think.

My new comic cast has a name, I’ll be calling it the Maximum Geek Comic Cast. I thought about a couple of clever comicbook related names, but they were all a bit too clever and not enough people would have gotten the references. In the end I want this podcast to appeal to hardcore comic fans, people just getting started with comics and people who aren’t even sure how interested in comics they are yet. Check out the Maximum Geek Comic Cast page and be looking on there later today for an article.
