Best of Luck to Scoble, but….

I’m unsubscribing. I’ve enjoyed Robert’s blog ever since I discovered it while researching Tablet PCs years ago. I’m not sure what PodTech is, but it sounds like podcasts and I don’t bother listening to them anymore. I’ve discovered that I’d much rather listen to music while traveling than someone talking (if I do need someone’s voice, I’ll find the local NPR). Anyway best of luck Robert, but PodTech (I haven’t even bothered to visit PodTech’s website) is irrelevant to me.

    Never know unless you give it a try…podcasting works for some but not others. PodTech is text, audio, and now video.

    I’m sure it is earth shattering, but I don’t need another middleman in my life.

    Why don’t you want to read Scoble anymore?

    Because he’s entering an area that doesn’t interest me at all. If he had gone to Zillow you can be pretty sure I’d be still reading him.

    I’ve got too much noise in my RSS feeds to filter though Podcast stuff. Plus if there is one thing Scoble taught us is to pay attention to Technorati and Techmeme. If there is something relevant I’m pretty sure I’ll read about it anyway.

    I’d rather spend time with my son than listening to Podcasts. I’ve never downloaded a video to my iPod and probably never will (I’d rather just watch my TiVo at home).

    As I said, best of luck to Robert and who knows, I watch Rocketboom on my TiVo so if PodTech wants to get my eyes, just work with TiVo.

    “I watch Rocketboom on my TiVo”??? Whoa….James, how do I do that?

    I understand. TiVo is great and we are working to get on that platform soon. Consumers want to consume on platforms they choose. We understand that at PodTEch. See you on Tivo

    There are such things as music podcasts if that’s your thing. http://www.rockandrolljew.com

    Scoble will be interesting no matter where he is or what he is doing. His blog has always gone beyond the bounds of his particular job.

    Scoble is interesting and I’m sure I’ll see some of his posts indirectly. As with most people I’m trying to reduce my feed list and his feed gets pushed out.
