If I may boast a little, it's frustrating to know where things will eventually go, and wanting them to go there sooner, so we don't have to suffer while we're waiting. #
Podcasting was like that. If I tried to explain it to any of its most avid supporters today, back in 2004, they would have ignored it as the rantings of a crazy software developer.#
Now there's so much distance in time, and there are many more media things to do with networks, things that we need now. #
But nothing's changed about listening. I can't get an idea on the air for the life of me. ;-)#

You know those obnoxious sites that pop up dialogs when they think you're about to leave, asking you to subscribe to their email newsletter? Well that won't do for Scripting News readers who are a discerning lot, very loyal, but that wouldn't last long if I did rude stuff like that. So here I am at the bottom of the page quietly encouraging you to sign up for the nightly email. It's got everything from the previous day on Scripting, plus the contents of the linkblog and who knows what else we'll get in there. People really love it. I wish I had done it sooner. And every email has an unsub link so if you want to get out, you can, easily -- no questions asked, and no follow-ups. Go ahead and do it, you won't be sorry! :-)
