Thanks much for the kind feedback! Glad you are enjoying the podcasting series and that you also enjoy the format. Yes, we thought about focusing on something unique and we pretty much came up with what we think is going to be the format that would help us get the most out of each other. We are enjoying it tremendously and although the episodes we are recording are much longer, we decided to slice them into shorter chunks for easy digesting / listening. Glad that format of focusing on topics deeply works out for you. Excellent stuff! Thanks for the kind comments! PS. RE: The incident of the fly, yeah, that was very spontaneous! The fly was just passing by and you know that feeling when there is something that is really annnoying you and you want to do something? Well, yeah, SMACK!!!, that's what I did! Man, I couldn't stop laughing myself while I was listening to the episode! And I needed it quite a bit! heh Too funny! Hi Stephen! Thanks much for the kind feedback!

Prefer your style of going deeply into topics, talking about things (and not yourselves) & no incessant laughter in the background... Also enjoyed the fly killing :-) Hi, liked the chat & contrast to dogear-nation.

I'm really glad that you like it. Thanks for the feedback on PodNova. The default feed in 1 Man's Blog theme is a bit imperfect. So, we'll have to watch this. Awesome, TRob!

I have to admit I was puzzled at the beginning when you were referring to stuff we listeners could not see and talking about planning the podcast. I thought maybe you had uploaded the wrong file. But once I got past that whole Rod Serling aspect and caught on, it was quite fun and interesting. PodNova had a little trouble indexing the feed but seems to have locked on now and your Episode #5 is on my MP3 player. I'll be listening to that one later tonight. Keep up the good work! -- T.Rob <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/t-rob/deepqueue" title="The Deep Queue - a podcast about WebSphere MQ security" rel="nofollow">The Deep Queue - a podcast about WebSphere MQ security</a> Hi guys, great podcast!

I couldn't have said it with much better words than those! Long life the conversation with interruptions! Yay! heh Look forward to the next one! ;-) Amen to that, Matt!

I really don't know the exact end result of it all... I just really know that you and I keep expanding on each other's ideas, which is all any participant in a decent discussion could hope for. And by that, my friend, I mean that these conversations, from my point of view, is decent, and worth our time. You are a busy man. I wouldn't want to waste your time on meaningless drivel; Nor you I. If your interruption of my words, and my interruptions of your words, weren't thoroughly worth both of our time,... I would say, let's pack up and put this thing in a coffin and bury it and then dig it up and then drive a steak in its heart. LOL ;-) But instead, I say... HOLY COW... I never thought you were going that direction... if you said that... then this means this... and then, that means that... and then... oh wow... look what we found! :-) So, no... I reject this notion of wisdom and foresight. I believe that we are socially constructing meaning right now. And there's no accounting for what hasn't happened yet. These conversations are alive. The only thing that kills them when they are cut short.

We just keep adding on, indeed! Must say that in previous comments I mentioned "I would try", but it looks like you Matt already know the exact end result of it all! :-D (Loving it!)

Remember Rob Cross' reports on social network analysis? If we did an SNA on 'energizer' - among all the people in your network, who makes you feel energized... THAT is the thing you are doing right now, I think. You make people feel great about themselves and the work they are doing because of your upbeat approach to all this interpersonal enterprise 2.0 space. People love that, like bees to honey. You and I've been riffing on all kinds of topics over the past 8 years or so. The great thing about talking with you, Luis, is that anyone only has to suggest a thought... and that's enough to trigger you to totally expand on it. (in fact we al do this with each other) And then, while you're expanding on it, no doubt you will throw in a thing or two I haven't thought of. And when that happens, it triggers me to expand on a few things... and so it goes... they tell two friends... and so on... and so on... Seriously though, after commuting back to the east coast from Hawaii... I was talking so slow that if anyone participated in the discussion, it would have been an interruption. The ideas were in the brain. But instead of the usual sea water... they were swimming through jello. Luis, don’t change a thing. Remember Rob Cross’ reports on social network analysis?

That's a very good point! And guess I got carried away with all of the excitement on that very same conversation! I will have to tame myself in future episodes and try not to interrupt Matt. Like I said, I am going to try it out, but there is no guarantee that it will happen, and Matt knows me rather well on that one! heh But sure thing, Mike, point well taken & will accommodate accordingly! PD. Glad we made you laugh, too! :-) LOL! That’s a very good point! And guess I got carried away with all of the excitement on that very same conversation!
