A good few years ago I bought an iRig Mic for making short podcasts at conferences and the like. It worked well for me. I’ve not got much of an ear or wallet for mikes. Last week I dug it out for my class to use in their podcast. It still works well enough for our needs.

One of my favourite things to do when insomnia strikes to read my ‘on this day’ page. 6 years ago I was involved in a podcast I’m particularly proud of.
This 5 year old post reminds me of one of the benefits of indieweb technology, the preservation of Twitter comments.

Well it looks like the save as draft in micro.blog works for WordPress blogs too. The get posted as drafts. I like that. I often write drafts that never get published. Writing some posts is cathartic but they do not need to be read.
