(Be sure to keep your volume low before playing this video 
On today’s show we covered how I got started broadcasting on Ustream and why some of the brilliant peeps on my show should start their own show too. As usual, we covered topics ranging from blogging (WordPress, themes, plugins), video, video hosting and much more. This was definitely more casual than other shows, if there’s such a thing
Check out the video, the show notes below (the first few minutes of the show notes didn’t get captured) and I’d appreciate your feedback. Thanks.
