You people are credulous and mad. Goodbye Western civilisation.

A great podcast for people interested in starting software businesses.

That's not as surprising as you may think. "Truth is not a complete defense against libel".

Imagine I contacted someones workplace and business partners and told them about a drug conviction that occurred 22 years ago. Or if I took a statement you make after a some drinks in the pub and stuck a print out on poles all around your business.

There are cases where suing someone for libel even if what they say is true doesn't seem demonstrably wrong.

Airport 2 km inland is flooded, amazing helicopter shots of the water sliding across the land.

I listen to a lot of business and startup talks and this is probably the best I have heard. Rapid pace and inspirational.

You firstly need to realize that mood is like the weather, it's never permanent.

You have some real practical problems to deal with, but no more than lots of people, no more than lots of people who you admire have dealt with.

You need to talk to the organisations you owe money to, you need to negotiate a payment plan you can actually afford.

You need to listen to this interview with Rand Fishkin, http://mixergy.com/seomoz-rand-fishkin-interview/ in which he talks about being in debt.

Look yourself in the mirror, are you really exhausted and out of ideas ? I don't think so, I think you're just getting started.

It would have been epic if he had walked off stage with that routine...

I thought this short video was pretty insightful. I have been focusing on pitching the benefits of my product and not reducing the risk of adoption.

By talking about all the different way my product can help perhaps I was making it look like it would be a dramatic change to the customers workflow.

I am going to focus on the single most significant benefit we offer and suggest a "one week challenge", where the customer uses our product for a week and then we discuss the benefits.

For some work that requires light attention, having a startup podcast going in the background can be very inspiring.

Of course we know the real reason for this post is to beat Jason in the battle of the blogs :)

The techzing podcast is great easy listening for startup hacker types.

For those who don't know the techzing format is two developers having a regular chat about the startup projects they are working on, their consulting work and the stories they found interesting on hacker news.

There are also guest interview shows, sometimes with tech / startup people and sometimes with more exotic guests (one interview was with a geologist about peak oil and helium 3 fusion. Another was about the evidence behind alien sightings).

If you like startup podcasts I recommend you check out a few episodes of techzing and see if it's too your liking.
