Posterous say that they have a very simple way to send emails to autopost anywhere.  You can set up blogging, twitter, facebook, and a whack of other services.  Simply by using tag like emails, including hashtag, and + signs you can combine and target any of your services.  Or the ultimate email, "post" and your message goes across the board.

I'm not going to post everywhere, but let's give it a whirl.

This is going on all my blogs!

I’ve decided to combine some advice ( a little of this, and a lot of that). And voila! The new ether+nick

Why? – becuase I’m a media man as well. I should have a venue for things news, posters, billboards, radio shows, podcasts ( audio / video ), blogs, websites, book, music videos, viral videos, tv shows, movie trailers, etc…

If Rensense is for the process of discovery, and ether+nick is for what I discover related to media, then my last question is what do I do with whoisnick.com? We will see how it all pans out.

I wish I learned the alphabet with this. Mind you, if I were a kid, I don’t think my parent would let me eat this book. It would be the one on the very top shelf.

I posted this quote over at rensense.ca, but it’s so appropriate for the holidays, I’ll post it here to.

The life of a creator is not the only life nor perhaps the most interesting which a man leads. There is a time for play and a time for work, a time for creation and a time for lying fallow. And there is a time, glorious too in its own way, when one scarcely exists, when one is a complete void. I mean / when boredom seems the very stuff of life.

I knew there was a lot of porn on the web. It’s a given. But I wasn’t aware of the impact of the industry until reading this little article, 12 ways porn has changed the web.

Case in point. #7: Broadband

In the 1990s, Penthouse magazine gave away 2400-baud modems with the periodical’s logo on them, according to Gerard Van Der Leun, former director of Penthouse.com and current contributor to American Digest. At the time these modems offered the fastest way to access the magazine’s popular XXX bulletin boards. Clearly, in the early years of the Net, nobody had a greater need for a bigger, fatter pipe than the adult industry and its customers.

Though the evidence is largely anecdotal, various authorities believe that “acquiring higher resolution pornographic images faster promoted broadband connections,” as Jonathan Coopersmith, an associate professor of history at Texas A&M, put it in a 2006 paper on the nature of computer-based porn PDF.

So the military made the web, and porn made it better. Hmmm, interesting.

Oooo, radio techie behind the scenes fun at the local Vancouver CBC Master Control.

Glad Tod didn’t get hurt.
