This is kind of like the secret items I have posted about Google yesterday and the
former Kazaa and Skype guys today. The only difference of course is this is an idea that Scot Duke of Mr. Business Golf and myself have been hashing over to do.
Well today, we found the time, and we finished up the first episode in hopefully at least a weekly series called - Coffee with Rex Dixon. What makes this not just another podcast? Well for one, it is an interview show conducted over Skype. No, we did not sit in a room and record this; well I’m sure we both were sitting in a room - but Scot Duke is in Addison, TX and Rex Dixon lives in St. Louis, MO!
I know, you are saying “Rex, dude, I’ve heard podcasts before that are done via the phone and those $600 phone podcast devices, they sound like crap!” … Well take a listen to the first episode of - Coffee with Rex Dixon - 10/14/2006 - not too shabby for Skype and some decent audio software.

For weird stuff and scary stuff! This is sort of cool, but in a way, I think very soon once these can be massed produced we will be living in a sci-fi world of sorts. Duplicate androids of yourself or someone you know running around. Could be interesting, yet again, could be freak city; Technically Speaking that is!

As reported on TechCrunch today, it looks like the Skype and Kazaa founders are heading towards combining the internet and TV. They will be calling the project - The Venice Project. Technically Speaking, should be interesting to see this develop further.

Well it looks like it’s time for Rex Dixon to take over! What time is it?
It’ s time for 7 Minutes with Rex Dixon to take over.
All kidding aside now, Air America Radio filed for bankruptcy. They lost $40.9 million since May 2004. Again — Rex Dixon would LOVE to take the 7 Minutes with Rex Dixon podcast show — Live, and on the airwaves — and apparantly with Air America crashing and burning, there is room for - 7 Minutes with Rex Dixon. I guess of course, it would probably have to be 30 minutes, or maybe 70 minutes… heck.. why not — Rex Dixon 24/7! Okay.. that would be way over the top even for Rex Dixon!
ZyXEL is putting out their NBG-415N Wireless Broadband Router, which actually sounds like a decent offering from the Taiwan-based company. They are claiming 300mbps speed for their $160 router. This should be interesting with the new 802.11n routers hitting the market in the next few weeks and months. Christmas is right around the corner; looks like daddy needs a new wireless card and new router. I guess it will be awhile before Rex Dixon gets to sample one of those; unless of course ZyXEL or another company would like me to review one.
GDrive Platypus Leak. Don’t even ask right? No, it’s not that, and it’s a semi-secret project that Google is working on. Not really secret as someone knows about it, but it’s not going public anytime soon.
Technically Speaking, it’s now Saturday October 14th, and it’s time for me to crash and burn like Air America Radio for awhile; only my crashing and burning is shutting my eyes and falling asleep.
