The Dog Days.

Have I mentioned I'm doing a Podcast ?
Well I am.  It's part of the Dog Days of podcasting,  which is a group of people that challenege themselves to make a podcast everyday during August.
I heard about the Dog Days when it was mentioned on one of the podcasts that I regularly listen too.
I though "that's a cool odea, I should try that"  and then didn't.  Not that year or the next. Finally this year as it was approaching I was determined to give it a try.

I thought about a few different titles and formats and went back and for , then decided on the title "My Commute" using the idea of talking about commuting while, commuting as a loose framework to really talk about what every I want.  But, it's usually connected to what I'm doing.or what's going on. Each day's cover art is also a photo I've taken.  Often taken on the parkway &  usually on the same day of the recording.

The Dog Days Of Podcasting Challenge ends at the end of the week. Most of the participants will wrap up their Dog Dags shows and some will go back to  their "regularly scheduled podcasts".
I don't have a regular show to go back to or continue with, but I don't really want to stop doing shows.

So, what I'm hoping to do is transition from the dog days into a new podcast. Sort of transform this show into something I can do once a week through the fall and winter and see how I feel about it in the spring.

That about all I can say for now about the new show is that it will have a new name, probably have  a weekly(ish) schedule and is likely to be at least a little longer than the 5 minutes long.

There's still lots to figure out & try out before I commit to any of the defeatist.
The immediate plan is the keep doing "My Commute" Daily into the first week of September (maybe a bit longer)  while I figure out what the new show will be like.

If your interested in the "My Commute"  Podcast there are links below.   It's a first attempt and ti's all on location at the side of the road & river.
So,  it's pretty rough.
But,  I think it's become almost tolerable.

This set of photos is from the 'High Lite Diner' in Downtown Niagara Falls.
The High Lite has been a part of downtown as long as I can remember & some of the furnishings are older than that. The age of the furnishings, in some cases makes them cool & stylish, in other cases .. just aged.

The highlight is currently the place you can get breakfast (or coffee) downtown. The breakfast is typical  greesey spoon fair,  neither trendy or particularly healthy but, tasty & filling. 
I suspect this won't be the last set I post from the High Lite.

Best day yet on Flickr & other good news

Today I've had more flickr views than ever before (2145), which is great, but there have been a lot of great days for number of views and comments, favourites etc. The numbers just keep going up.

A few photos have been featured in different groups on flickr and Redbubble.

Still need to work on YouTube  & Vimeo more, some how TnT's Wedding Trailer has 10 times more views on flickr than on Vimeo or YouTube. 

Not sure how a video gets more hits on a photo site than a video site, but it seem I've still got a lot to learn about YouTube & Vimeo.

Google+ is still a bit of mystery, but I'm spending some time there and it's fun, and seems like it has lots of potential, just not sure how to make best use of it.

It's very exciting to see some reaction to stuff, ow I'd better get to work and make some more content.
