Jono Bacon and Stuart Langridge dive into the fetid and yet compelling pool of microblogging loveliness and celebrity that is Twitter. If Twitter defines the social media bubble, what does that mean for you and me, to say nothing of Ashton Kitchen or whatever his name is? Where’s the money coming from? And who will be first against the wall when the revolution comes? Find out in Shot of Jaq!
The first Shot of Jaq! Jono Bacon and Stuart Langridge explain what SoJ is all about and how it’s going to work. There’ll be two Shots of Jaq a week, on Tuesdays and Fridays, and each one is where the conversation starts, not where it finishes. So tell us what you think: leave a comment for us and the community here, or chat to us live on IRC, or email us directly!
It’s the start of a whole new adventure, and you’re here right from the beginning. Let’s go.
I just wanted to remind you good folks that the very first Shot Of Jaq will be released tomorrow – Tues 24th Nov 2009 at 4pm GMT. You can get it right here at www.shotofjaq.org and listen to it right from your web browser. We will also have podcast feeds up and ready.
The Shot Of Jaq team are excited as we prepare to open the doors to our new show. It reminds us of the buzz we felt when we started LugRadio and we are equally excited about the thriving community that has already started building here. If you are new here, do let us know who you are – introduce yourself in the comments to this entry.
We are also seeing a thriving community beginning develop in our #shotofjaq chat channel on Freenode. You can connect easily from your web browser by clicking here.
Exciting times, friends! The revolution starts here tomorrow…
Friends and compadres, welcome to shotofjaq.org – the brand new podcast featuring myself, Jono Bacon and Stuart ‘Aq’ Langridge, also formally of LugRadio. For those of you who are new to Shot Of Jaq, you can go and read more about the show here.
Now, I know what some of you are thinking, where is the first episode? Well, it is going t be delayed for a few weeks, and I wanted to explain why.
Originally we planned the very first Shot Of Jaq episode to be released today, 3rd November 2009, but we have had to delay it due to some extended travel requirements on both Aq and I. When we originally announced the release date, we had timeslots available to record our opening few shows, but those timeslots have since had to be re-arranged due to last-minute travel to some work-related events. We could have put together some shows, but the audio quality would have been inferior and we were conscious to not kick off Shot Of Jaq with a lower-than-normal quality. As such, we decided to delay the release date to provide enough time for us to record the shows in a manner the means we can guarantee normal quality that you should expect from Shot Of Jaq.
The first episode will now be released on Tues 24th Nov 2009.
Aq and I are both sorry that those of you who are excited about the show will need to wait a little longer, but we assure you that the wait will be worth it. In the meantime, the new brand new Shot Of Jaq website is open, and I encourage you all to introduce yourself in the comments on this entry so the new Shot Of Jaq community can start to get to know each other. We also encourage you to let us know how we can improve the website: this is going to be home for a world of discussion and debate, and we want to make it as comfortable as possible.
