Thinking With Mitch Joel

Welcome to episode #170 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. First off, let me say that the audio quality of the phone call is pitiful in this Podcast. I don't know why this is happening, but whenever a call is recorded through my M-Audio MicroTrack, it is giving off a high-end buzz. If someone knows how this can be fixed, please let me know. That being said, I think this conversation is worth enduring the high pitch sound for. I was lucky enough to get The Woz - Steve Wozniak - on the phone for a conversation about business, technology, education and thoughts about how to change the world. He needs little (to no) introduction as Wozniak is - literally - one of the few people who has changed how our society operates. Along with Steve Jobs, he created Apple. From launching the first personal computer to being a Tetris champion, Wozniak also authored the book, iWoz along with being on a past season of the ABC hit television series, Dancing With The Stars. He is currently the Chief Scientist for Fusion-IO and is a very generous Philanthropist. Enjoy the conversation...

Welcome to episode #169 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. Two of the regular co-hosts of Media Hacks are Chris Brogan and Julien Smith. After meeting at the first PodCamp Boston, the two decided to write a book together. The result is Trust Agents. The book - which was released this week - made it to the New York Times' best-seller's list. Not only are we all very proud of the co-authors, but we decided to spend the bulk of this episode discussing and dissecting the concepts in Trust Agents. We also wish C.C. Chapman tons of continued success on his recent news (you have to listen to hear what it is). Enjoy the conversation...

Welcome to episode #168 of Six Pixels Of Separation - The Twist Image Podcast. I had a very unique opportunity this past week. I was invited to give a speech at the first-ever National Sales Conference for Google. With nearly 3000 people in attendance, I was the only non-Google employee speaker. One of the Google employee speakers was Avinash Kaushik - their Analytics Evangelist, Blogger at Occam's Razor and the author of the best-selling business book, Web Analytics - An Hour A Day. He has a very special announcement about his recently completed second book and - as always - makes all of us a lot more passionate about the Web. Enjoy the conversation...

As usual, there is some language, so please keep in mind that this Podcast is not work safe. Many major happenings in both the technology, communications and Social Media space. We discuss everything from the unconference movement to Bloggers who take themselves (and their community) maybe a little too seriously. We also chat about Twitter (of course) where Hugh explains why it is more like talking than a media channel (or something) and some Googley stuff. Enjoy the conversation...
