A Capital Duo Talk Tech — Episode 1

@klepas and I put together a pod­cast. It’s going to be a bi-weekly sort of affair (or whenever we feel like it). I should note, first up, that the audio qual­ity is pretty ter­rible. It was a first shot and not one of the three record­ing devices we used were really up to scratch — we’ll def­in­itely have that fixed before next time!

In this epis­ode, we discuss:

  1. Recent events in the world of web fonts (pro­pos­als to bring more fonts to the web, and the advent of TypeKit)
  2. The pro­nun­ci­ation of Opera (Oh-pear-uh? Op-er-rah?)
  3. Static vs. Dynamic Web­site Con­tent Generators
  4. OpenAtrium, a new intranet pack­age based on Drupal (which we’ll review next time around!)

Turns out ID3 metadata in MP3s is pretty lim­ited — our show notes in the MP3 cut out about a third of the way through. So, here’s some use­ful links:

1. ‘Beau­ti­ful Web Typo­graphy’ talk slides
2. Typekit
3. Kern­est
4. Jekyll
5. Devel­op­ment Seed
6. Drupal
7. Open Atrium
8. http://klepas.org/
9. http://klepas.org/beta

Since we’re just get­ting this off the ground we’d love feed­back. Feel free to email us — arcwhite@arcwhite.org and klepas@klepas.org.
