I guess I need to have a little talk with my 1337 boy about diplomacy. Son, just because you are young and naive and want to fancy yourself a geek doesn’t mean you have to talk with shoe leather in your mouth. Uber stupid!

From the mouths of babes
Mom: "Let’s get everyone bathed and to bed quickly or Dad won’t be happy tonight."
Noah: "That’s right. Everyone move quick or Dad won’t get his happy time."
Dad: blink blinkI thought he missed that day.

Big Bad Dad
Lurking in the clutter
In the basement of the house
Big Bad DadRockin their world
With a shout from his mouth
Big Bad DadEvil enforcer
Laying down Mom’s law
Big Bad DadMakin ’em do homework
Assigning more chores
Big Bad DadCranky old man
Always seems mad
Big Bad DadAt bedtime, Mom kisses cheeks
Dad turns off the tee vee
Big Bad DadToddler’s screaming mad
Locked in the crib by
Big Bad Dad!I hate making them cry.

What is a podcast?
For the longest time I have wanted to get into podcasting. I have good excuses like my computer equipment is pathetically out of date, my hard drives are too small (size does matter!) and filling up, and time is a commodity (video and audio take time!). But really, the geek in me has held me back the most. I understand the definition of podcasting:
A podcast is a collection of digital media files which is distributed over the Internet using syndication feeds for playback on portable media players and personal computers. [Wikipedia]
That was not satisfying enough for me. I did not want to "podcast" until I could be certain that I was using the word correctly! Did quality of video matter? Length? What if my RSS stream occasionally had text only posts? Does Seesmic count? What about Youtube? Or Utterz?
Tonight I posed the question on Seesmic and had the pleasure of having the CTO and creator of http://podcast.com/ give the definitively best answer to the question. I really appreciated Kosso‘s answer! It nailed it for me.
(Someone should put that video in Wikipedia under podcast)
Update: David Jacobs of The Connected World gave a great answer from a coffee shop! Watch David Jacobs reply on Seesmic!
