This week’s TPN Weekly was a collaboration between myself, Todd Cochrane and Andy McCaskey. We took the time to discuss CES 2010, what TPN has done in the last 5 years with CES and what we are looking forward to.

This was a great discussion that you don’t want to miss out on. The Podcast can be found here.

The latest answer, the latest of many, to the question of “earth, the universe, and everything” in computerdom seems to be cloud computing, in which users’ applications and data exist not on their local machines, but up there, somewhere, in the “cloud.”

(Aside: In the olden days, when I was a young ‘un, it was called “networking,” but “networking” is not a new, marketable term, so the marketeers disdain it.)

I am as skeptical of this as I was of doing grocery shopping via the internet.

This weekend has been a whirlwind. I’ve been working on some new items and I went out of town yesterday. I also had to figure out what I am going to do this week. Tomorrow I have to report to Jury Duty. I may be out for 4 hours, I may be out for 4 days. God forbid I may be out for 4 weeks.

While I don’t think it will be the extreme latter, I have to make preparations if I am out for more than a couple days. That means the Podcast may not happen on Wed. Therefore to suppliment, I am planning a mini-podcast for Monday. Add to that the Quickcast. That means a lot of work on a Sunday.

Not that I mind. I enjoy doing this WAY too much.

FAWM is almost complete. I’m at 13 songs and the 14th is a collaboration with Madison favorite – Beth Kille. We went back and forth on this song, but I think we came out with something that people can remember. If there is time, I will sit down and make a 15th song.

Tuesday is Mardi Gras. Wednesday is the beginning of LENT. While I am not as religious, I still try to make one life changing 40 – day challenge. I did not plan to do one for this year because I gave up a couple things this last year. I also wanted to focus on the site. Maybe my 40 days will be dedicated to the portal redesign. We’ll see what happens.

That’s all for now. 2 Podcasts coming tonight. Else, I’ll see you on the other side.
