Valve’s Portal [via]. Eh. Wow. (High-def WMV available; sources seem contradictory as to whether this is a whole new game or just the Half Life 2: Episode 2 gameplay.)
After a week spent catching up with the best podcasts I could find (in a nutshell: if you’re gonna make a podcast, you’ve got to have a nice voice, you’ve got to know how to speak rather than read your text, and you’ve got to bring something that a blog post can’t, which usually means having several people conversing, rather than you being alone in front of the microphone) I’ve moved to video podcasts, and I’m amazed by how many of them just imitate the mainstream media’s flaws rather than dissociate from them.
Although it might be a bit contradictory with what I just wrote (because the new host comes straight from MTV), I like Rocketboom much better without Amanda Congdon, but still not to the point of watching it. And I’m still hooked to ze’s show.
By the way, Molly’s voice, from the Buzz Out Loud podcast, furiously reminds me of someone, and I wonder who that could be. Her voice, the way she speaks, her laughter, it’s like she reminds me of someone I’ve known forever, yet there’s no English-speaking person I’ve known forever.
This is all in preparation of the great GarooTV launch, someday pretty soon or not so soon at all. And I’m actually getting more and more used to the concept of starting out with a simple podcast instead (it’s so much simpler: less hardware, less software, less work), so if you feel like participating in weekly roundtables about the web, movies, games, TV or all things technological, you may want to… uh, read the French version of this post, because this is reserved to francophones. (Not that I would mind doing a podcast in English, but that’s not where my audience is, and I’m not going to produce one podcast for each language.)
Wasn’t it Pet1te 4nglaise who posted, a while back (at the time when I was reading her), some creepy stuff about her boss, bordering on sexual harassment? (Her termination letter apparently refers to material she posted then removed, acknowledging it was professionally risky.)
Diet Sprite tastes like something’s missing. But I’m unsure whether it’s my memory playing tricks on me, or it’s just the taste of sugar I’m missing.
Want to know when I post new content to my blog? It's a simple as registering for free to an RSS aggregator (Feedly, NewsBlur, Inoreader, …) and adding www.ff00aa.com to your feeds (or www.garoo.net if you want to subscribe to all my topics). We don't need newsletters, and we don't need Twitter; RSS still exists.

Ermm, how do you know what was in Pet1te 4nglaise's termination letter...?? I'm going to check that. I think it's a shame you're not going to podcast in English (but I can understand why). Are francophone Brits allowed to take part? go on, lemme play...:D

ah, maintenant je comprends mieux re: la lettre de licenciement..mais je lui poserai la question quand même.

Fiélin : voui, mais je ne trouve pas ça très clair. Enfin, pas très logique, plutôt.
Rhino75 : cf. le blog de Ma1tre E0las, et je voudrais bien que ce post n'apparaisse pas sur Google, merci :)

On account of my advanced age and failing eyesight, I hadn't even noticed that you'd done that clever thing to the name - sorry!

GarooTV, la chaîne porno payante ? Tu as enfin trouvé les acteurs (et l'argent pour les payer) ? :)
garoo, 7 years ago:
Nan, pas porno :)
Enfin, pourquoi pas faire une chaîne porno aussi, mais pas dans l'immédiat :o)
