I heard recently that Guardian Unlimited | Ricky Gervais | Ricky Gervais podcast will soon become a paid download.
Nick Mailer, web host for the Ricky Gervais podcast: “podcasts are to radio what blogs are to newspapers”.
There was a story on Sky News a week-and-a-half ago (which was shown on Five News the week before that) about the Ricky Gervais podcast becoming the most popular podcast so far, and thereby entering the Guinness book of records. On the story, the podcast show’s producer Karl Pilkington was “joking” that they should charge £1 per podcast downloaded. Seems it wasn’t a joke after all…
Many others (trackbacked) seem to disagree with this move, and won’t the paid podcasts end up on BitTorrent eventually anyway?
Well, it’s been a sickly three and a half weeks but I came off my antibiotics yesterday. The cure was nearly as bad as the cause, as I was on a double dose of strong antibiotics and had some bad side effects including vertigo and nausea if I did so much as move my head to one side on the pillow…
Thankfully I’m feeling a good bit better today, so should be back to work next week after yet another visit to the doctor (I’ve had more doctor visits this past month than in my whole life!).
Thanks to all for the good wishes, they helped!
And now, to check all those e-mails that are building up: 2320 on my work account and 2693 on my personal…
I’m off work with pneumonia. Thought it was just the flu or a chest infection at first but it’s a bit more serious, so the doctor says I have to rest up… I’m purely sick of being confined to bed, 14 days and counting. Haven’t been online much either.
