I’ve written a lot of content about the Digital Circle this morning, mostly in the area of upcoming events , sources of funding and I’d like to invite people who read my blog, who are also involved in the Digital Content sector in Northern Ireland, to register here.


It would also be appropriate to note there are now nine Digital Circle podcasts (click here for iTunes link) and more will be coming over the next few weeks before Christmas. All of the podcasts are produced by SimsDigitalMedia.

Getting the media into my head.

I only listen to one podcast at the moment and working through their back catalogue takes some time (I’m currently at the end of 2006 to give you an idea). Each of their episodes is around 1 hour long and the journey to work takes about 25 minutes so I am grinding my way through them at around one episode per work day. It’ll take me the next two months just to get to 2008 on their list. Seems daunting.

I mostly listen while driving as it has the right amount of ‘automatic behaviours’ so that my mind can listen to what is being said. I find that when I’m in the office I can only really listen to music in the background and not podcasts otherwise I can’t take anything in. Perhaps this is the problem men have with multi-tasking hitting me after all – and I thought I was immune 🙂

I also can’t listen when I’m at home due to distractions, family wanting to talk to me and the desire to do something more constructive with my time – like write or pore over these programming books until something sticks in my head.

I’m not sure I have there bandwidth to take anything new on.
