I was interviewed on last Tuesday’s “The Works with John Moe”. which plays on KUOW (Seattle NPR). They cover a range of business and technical topics and were interested in speaking to someone about SecondLife.
The interview, um, went pretty, um, good, with the exception of interrupting myself every few words to, um…um.
Few interesting facts:
- None of the computers at the radio station, nor the producer’s or host’s PC have a graphics card sufficently powerful enough to launch SecondLife; precluding an in-world meetup.
- It really helps to have an old fashioned land-line POTS phone. Living off of my cellphone (330.329.8016) and my seekrit VOIP phone number, I don’t really have either. We ended up doing the interview with my Vonage number as that was just a shade better than the cellphone.
- They have a Podcast. Past guests and topics included: Woz, the Rad Dyke Plumber and an Organic Baby Food maker.
If you’d like to check it out (about 80% of the interview is spent bringing everyone up on the basics of SecondLife), you can listen to it here: The Works Interview.
