It's that time again.

Time for marching out one’s laundry list of good intentions for the coming year as a way to get them focused and motivated to self-improve. For the most part, I’ve never really done a new year’s resolution list. In away, …

Shaken for you: February 17, 2009

In order to ensure that the regular content of this blog doesn’t get overrun by episodes of the cocktail napkin*, I’ve added the Vimeo badge for that channel in the left column.

Now, you can see the 6 latest episodes at a glance. If you’re so inclined, you can subscribe to the cocktail napkin* channel on Vimeo and have the ability to subscribe to its RSS feed as well as leave comments and discussion about the videos on the Vimeo community.

I think this is a good solution that benefits everyone. It benefits me because it keeps all the discussion surrounding these videos in one central location and it benefits you that in the even that you aren’t interested in the videos you can more easily ignore them.

  • Out of curiosity, why did you stop posting to the iTunes store? It was pretty handy to automagically watch these on the ol' iPhone.
  • Well, that's a great question. I was hosting the episodes on this server and at the rate I was going I would have maxed out my server allocation after 20 episodes. So I decided to cut that feature early.

    Vimeo is working on a way to make iTunes friendly podcast feeds based on the uploaded H.264 videos but I don't know when that's going to become reality. Until then, I actually set the series up as an Episodic feed last night that will allow you to go back to watching these on the iPhone. Enjoy!
