Apparently, my post on knowledge effectively killed all feedback, so today I’m posting just a few quick news items worth noting. I’ll pickup my soapbox tomorrow.
Google has release a great update to Google Talk that incorporates file transfers and voice mail. Yahoo! Messenger 8 for Windows is officially released. The plug-in system is fantastic. And Skype calls to phone lines in Japan are free this Saturday and Sunday. If only I had someone to call!
Finally, if you haven’t already checked it out, be sure to give BigBlueBall IM Podcast #9 a listen. Please, share your feedback in the show notes, or even better, post a review at iTunes.

Hey, we are all actively now participating in a knowledge-sharing exercise – which is exactly what the all-powerful and mighty Hester had in mind from the start. He is much wiser than we mere puppets can fathom. (Is that true, or do I just believe it to be true??? I’m confused [obviously])

brilliant, jeff. brilliant.
i’m gonna start taunting on my site, if it works that well. or maybe the reverse psychology thing – “Do not comment. I don’t want you to comment. Ever. Don’t even think about commenting!”
reminds me of the newsvine article about comments – the author told people NOT to comment, which is obviously the same as telling someone not to look down.

Yes, taunting can work wonders. It reminds me of Monty Python and the Holy Grail and the Frenchman taunting the knights. 😉
