Technologies For Developing Web Pages

This 309th installment of our show finds the cast still down with a case of the post-SEFF blues. Yes, we are still reliving the adventure from that event this week. However, we add a special guest to the team this week while we reminisce - our buddy Jim T. Graham!

I want to apologize to our podcast-only listeners for all of the "visual references" in this episode. After having some problems with our live-feed over the last month, we changed things up and used a live video feed on YouTube for this one. This feed turned out to be quite good AND allowed us to use our webcams, meaning that we could show each other stuff, as well as the live listening audience. I just want it to be known that we here at TheCrashCast aren't trying to "break into" the video world (there are others that do it sooo much better than we could possibly do), and that the audio product (the podcast) will always be our primary focus, We just got a bit carried away with the new technology during this show. :)

In this 307th installment of our little show you'll get to hear the stuff we recorded live while we were on the grounds at Hodges Field for SEFF 2015. I recorded some segments with some of our favorite vendors, and then Laine grabbed the mic and did some "Man On The Street" interviews. I think you'll enjoy this one. :)

Don't forget! We will be back in the workshop doing the LIVE thing on Wednesday, April 29th at 8pm Central!

This 306th installment of our little show finds all your hosts full of excitement and anticipation since we will ALL be attending SEFF 2015 next week! We have a little information for you this week, but mostly it's just us clowning around. 

For what it's worth, every week I seem to struggle to come up with a unique name for the show. Well, when Cathead is in attendance, there is no struggle whatsoever. LoL

I apologize for this episode - it was as the title suggests - a TRAINWRECK! The topic for discussion was supposed to be A Newbie's Guide To SEFF (and other large events), as suggested by Jason Morrow. Things just ended badly, but I wanted to go ahead and share the episode for posterity.

Anyone want to be a replacement co-host?

We started out this week's show with a plan. Yes, we actually had a topic in mind for a lengthy discussion and thought that it would make for a fantastic show. Well, if you'd like to know what that topic is, you'll just have to give NEXT WEEK'S SHOW a listen, as we never got to it! LoL Instead, we totally got into a DLG discussion, which as actually quite fitting since Tim attended his first DLG event last weekend.

This week we're joined by a guest in the workshop - Mark Lehman from MultiRC! Right now, MultiRC is nothing more than a Blog page, but that will be changing soon. They are asking our listeners to check out their new quadcopter frame and come up with a great name for it. The person that comes up with the best name will win a free frame! Also in this 302nd installment of our show, you'll get some interesting news items we've found on the webs, as well as another IOTW segment.

I want to start this blog entry with an apology to our dowload-only audience. This episode is our 300th recording of the show, and we set out to celebrate this milestone with our LIVE listening audience. In fact, we even planned to give away some cool prizes to the folks that tuned in, but we quickly found out that having that many people listen live (a record 108!) and try to answer questions to win something was server breaking. LoL We found ourselves stumbling and stammering, not really knowing what to do next. Anyway (I did it again!), I apologize if you're hearing this episode and wasn't able to listen live, as this one clearly caters to the people that were there.

We've got a special guest in this one - Shawn from Let'sFlyRC! He tells us a little about his opportunity to hang out with our friends from FliteTest at the CFL FPV meet last weekend. 

Thanks go out to all of you guys that continue to follow our little show for all these episodes. Your encouragement fuels us as we try our best to inform and entertain. Without you loyal folks, I would have given up on the show ages ago.
