Groovy. This does make it simpler to check. Though I dunno why you hate ALL social networking sites so. There is a lot to be said for some of them.
Anyhoo, I’m curious, did you ever hear back from the Widow’s Bane? They’re a band I’d really love to hear sometime on BMR.
Perhaps “hate” is an overly strong word, but I do think that social networks are time-sinks, overrated, and frequently mis-utilized. I could go on, but it would me for a rather cranky sounding, and non-piratey rant.
I wonder if the Playlists would look better on the right-hand side (where you have the podcast link and banner)?
I do like the idea of having the ability for us to comment on each playlist. It can give us a chance to re-live the previous night’s glory while coping with a hangover.
I heard that, Red. I got a little carried away last nigh. Oh well… all in the name o’ fun.
Good call, Bilge. I get frustrated *checking* social networks all the time, too. Of course, if I didn’t I wouldn’t have one the big Bilgemunky secret code contest. By the way, where are my prizes?
I mean “won”. I must be hungover too.
Seriously, Bess. I’m a little upset that there was no true explanation of the contest / code. Since you won, why don’t you share what the contest and answer were?
I guess I’m a little bummed that the one time Bilge uses Twitter, he sends out a code and I didn’t bother to investigate it.
Seriously… especially for a guy that “hates” social networks to use the most useless one of all.
When I started posting playlists I was still coding Bilgemunky.com in HTML, and I didn’t feel like doing that for every episode of Bilgemunky Radio. So MySpace – being the only real alternative at the time – seemed a good choice. But then last night it occurred to me that I can just as easily do it right here now that I’ve converted to a blog format. And this way, people might actually SEE the playlists 😛
Well it was a good move dood. I refuse to visit myspace anyway.
Don’t worry, Bess – your prize is safely packed and ready to ship as soon as I can find the packing tape.
Again. Seriously? Bilge is using Twitter as a messaging device? I give up…. really. I do.
Well, Red, the contest was pretty subtle. Bilge left a message on Facebook – something about dolphin being the key. Then he put the coded message on Twitter. But most important: on Podcast Alley (not exactly a social network) he put a note at the end of the 100th episode synopsis with the website secretcodebreaker.com So I figured whatever was in the Twitter message could be decoded at secretcodebreaker.com It wasn’t that easy – but once I figured out which code Bilge was using and plugged in the coded message – it told me to email him with the subject line “the manatee never rests”. So I did. And I won. And yes, the “key” in the code is the word “dolphin”.
Is the prize a Bilgemunky decoder ring?
Yup, Red, I used Twitter. Which I hardly ever do, but since I get new followers each day to follow my perpetual silence, I figured I’d give them a thrill. But no decoder ring.
