Joe Soucheray, my esteemed Pioneer Press co-worker and famed Garage Logic radio personality, had a little fun at my expense on the airwaves recently.
This is related to the time I brought some of my homemade sushi to work but forgot I had exhausted my supply of soy sauce. I sent out an all-newsroom e-mail asking if anyone had some. Several co-workers did. Problem solved.
Joe, though, thought this was heelarious. Listen to the start of the Garage Logic episode audio clip to find out why.
I can’t help thinking it was the “homemade sushi” part and not the soy sauce that set Joe off; stick with the episode for a bit to hear Souch talk about sushi, which he says he has never eaten.
Yes, Joe, I am a good sport, which is why I am posting this on my blog. And turnabout is fair play, I suppose, since I once had fun at your expense.
Also, here are shots of my homemade sushi (one, two, three, four). Here is the result of a recent sushi-making night with friends.
Peace.
The Twin Cities’ NBC affiliate, KARE 11, invited me back on its early-morning Sunrise program today for gadget talk and a taste for what is being hyped at this week’s Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.
I enjoy doing these segments with co-anchor Kim Insley, and chatting with her and cohort Tim McNiff during commercial breaks. They are among the friendliest, most hospitable TV people I’ve ever met.
I was back on the TWiT network’s ‘Tech News Today’ on Dec. 16. What a thrill!
Host Tom Merritt had a little surprise for me: He placed my ‘iPad Means Business’ book on the shelf above his right shoulder so it would be visible throughout the episode. Thanks!
It is an honor to be on ‘Enough,’ the Minimal Mac podcast, with hosts Patrick Rhone (a friend) and Myke Hurley.
I made another appearance recently, with a twist: I had to speculate how I’d function within the constraints of a hypothetical 64-gigabyte MacBook Air. In other words, “How Bare is my Air”?
From the show notes:
In this episode, we are joined by Julio Ojeda-Zapata, reporter, tech pundit and author of “iPad Means Business.” He kicks off the first episode of “How Bare Is Your Air” which, actually, is just a rebranded “Enough for.” The new name was suggested by listener @grapefruitmoon on Twitter. This one turns out to be really interesting because of Julio’s almost-exclusive use of cloud-based applications. He even went so far as to erase his account on his own MacBook Air and rebuild it in order to quantify what it is he really needs. Impressive effort indeed.
I was on the Minnov8 Gang Podcast earlier today to talk gadgets for the holidays.
Thanks for having me on, guys, and kudos on the fun artwork for your blog post.
I was on Saturday Night With Esme Murphy yesterday to talk Christmas gadgets, primarily new tablets like Amazon’s Kindle Fire and Barnes & Noble’s Nook Tablet.
I recently reviewed the former, while Esme recently purchased the latter.
I recently rejoined the Minnov8 Gang for a podcast episode focused largely on the Kindle Fire and its consumer-technology implications.
This was recorded just before a Social Media Breakfast—Minneapolis/St. Paul session at Thomson Reuters in Eagan.
I was a Fox 9 guest on Black Friday to talk tech. I did a product face-off in key categories: laptops, tablets, phones and TV video-streaming boxes.
What are the best social-media apps for journalists? I spoke to my St. Paul Pioneer Press co-workers about this as part of an internal social-media training series.
I talk tech with Karin Housley
Karin Housley wears a lot of hats. She’s a prominent Realtor. She has run for political office. But I know her best as a KLBB radio-show personality because she often has me on her program to talk tech. This is the latest installment.
I was excited to make my second appearance on ‘Tech News Today,’ the TWiT-network show hosted by Tom Merritt, Sarah Lane, Iyaz Akhtar and Jason Howell.
I was in-studio at the famous Brick House the first time; today I Skyped in from the St. Paul Pioneer Press.
Tom was off today (too bad) but I had a lot of fun, nonetheless. Watch me do my usual hand-waving thing as I get all worked up about tech stuff.
Here’s the second part of my recent social-media conversation with Patrick Rhone and Myke Hurley, the hosts of the fine ‘Enough’ podcast. The episode description (written by Patrick):
This is part two of a special social-networking episode featuring our guest Julio Ojeda-Zapata, reporter, tech pundit and author of iPad Means Business. In this episode, we discuss his social networking tools, why I’m “doubling down” on email, and why Julio is going “all in” on social networks.
How are Facebook and Google+ potentially useful for journalists? I spoke to my St. Paul Pioneer Press co-workers about this yesterday as part of an internal social-media training series.
I was delighted to again be a guest on “Enough,” the popular podcast hosted by my friend Patrick Rhone and his co-conspirator across the pond, one of my fave Brits, Myke Hurley. The show is now part of Myke’s growing 70Decibels podcast network.
The topic this time (which will extend into a second episode to be posted later this week): social media and how it’s become vital for me as a journalist. This not only includes Twitter, which I have used for a long time, but lately also Facebook and Google+.
Here’s the episode description:
In this episode, we are joined yet again by Julio Ojeda-Zapata, reporter, tech pundit and author of iPad Means Business. He had a lot to say after our last Twitter-focused episode (Episode 68 – Mark This Tweet) and wanted to stop by to tell us his thoughts and how, as a journalist, his social-networking game is changing. An interesting discussion all around.
Thanks for having me on, guys. It’s an honor.
For iOS-device users, the installation of the new iOS 5 software was anything but smooth during the first day of release. I talk about this tech nightmare on Fox 9.
