Episode Transcript
BobWP: Well, here on my show, a few little updates.
I figured this was a good way since I’ve been mentioning a lot of little things here and there, and sometimes I think it’s good to pull them all together. You may have missed one or two, so it’s a busy month leading up to WordCamp Europe. We have something pretty cool that we’ll be announcing there, so really heads down with that. And yeah, it’s going to be a very, very busy month, busier than most months. Just to give you a little bit of an idea what’s going on between then and the announcement, we’re going to be doing some minor tweaks to some of the show’s names. None of the shows are disappearing or changing dramatically or anything, but just want to reflect more of a wider audience. And the Open web going to be adding one new host. He will be announced on this month’s the WordPress Way show, so make sure and tune into that as he will be participating under the WordPress way, as he will be hosting his own monthly episode of the WordPress Way, looking at the new hosts, the shows we’ve kind of tweaked and everything. I think I’m right at the limit now.
I think it’s good. I’m not going to be adding any new shows under our channel as we move ahead, unless if one disappears or one needs to be pulled off, well, I might consider it. Same with hosts. We have a solid lineup of hosts. I believe we’re at about 30 now, and yeah, that’s a good number. So plenty of perspective and insights from many, many voices. A couple other things. I’ve been doing this daily post. It’s just a short post I do, and I’ve been doing Undo the Booth. Thought that would be a great place to do it, and I’ve been thinking about it. I’m going to be moving that over. So if you happen to be catching those, it’s kind of mixed in with everything else on our site. But my daily wired for open posts are going to take a little bit of a trip, so they’re going to packing up right now and they’re going to move over to my new personal blog.
Haven’t found a name for that yet, but watch for that soon. Friday shares are moving right along. I’m hoping that I can add a bit more wider perspective on some of the articles and posts I share. There are things that would be of interest to you, but maybe don’t cross your radar or you missed. So really looking at how I can make that a really well-rounded list of shares each Friday. Yeah, so that’s kind of it in a nutshell. I wasn’t going to make this real long. We have a lot coming, a lot to talk about. We have plenty of shows, of course, coming your way, plenty of episodes, a bit more blog posts, pulling out some of the nitty gritty details and good insights and tips from past shows as well. So yeah, thank you for hanging in there, listening with us, and yes, we’re looking forward to the next phase of our channel. So until the next time, take care.
