For Mac Eyes Only Episode 100 UPDATE

November 29, 2008 by

Episode 100 Connection Info

After testing a number of different services, it looks like our best bet is going to be Ustream.tv for streaming the AUDIO of our round table episode and provide a chat room where you guys can tune in and participate if you’d like — or just stop by to say “Hi”.

If all goes well, we’ll get underway at Noon US Central Time (GMT -6:00) at the following URL:
http://www.ustream.tv/channel/for-mac-eyes-only

Hope you can make it!

(If you can’t make it, don’t worry, because we’ll release the audio in the regular podcast feed on Monday.)
