On Friday I had the chance to sit down with Alf, of Alf’s Zoo fame. We had a great chat about automation, cloud and… cheese? You’ll just have to watch the show!

If you’re wondering about the art behind me, here are the two prints: Ski Pluto and Visit Mars. Both are by Steve Thomas. I had seen them linked ages ago and filed the bookmark, and when I was furnishing my home office in the new house I finally had somewhere to put them.


On a related note, every time I try to do something with Google Hangouts, I gain a better understanding of why WebEx has been so successful. Recording a ten-minute show took half an hour of futzing around. It’s one thing to do this if guest and host know each other already, but this would make a terrible first impression.
