Thanks Dave for the opportunity of being calm and careful
Who is on the podcast? - participants
What is the podcast about? - subject(s)
What keywords (or tags) could be associated with this podcast? - topics

What categories could you put this podcast into? - index
Length? - time
I think that’ll do for now.
Eventually you should put in details on the content - playlist, trasnscriptions, comments. And eventually we’ll have annotation standards. But for now - anything rather than nothing would be coolio.
I’ve never been compared to Jesus before - but I thank you for your interest. And you’re right - I did miss the web, I was sitting right next to you at the time - waiting for broadband and what we now call Web 2.0.
As you know - I just don’t get off on HTML. It kind of set us back. But now that Laszlo is open source, there’s no excuse why we ALL can’t have sexy UIs.

Here’s Dave’s post that inspired me being calm and careful….

I keep wanting to tell Marc Canter to stop jumping up and down, and (calmly and carefully) write a list of the data he wants to accompany podcasts, and we’ll see what we can do. Now’s a really good time to make specific proposals, not blanket condemnations. Marc sometimes misses things, like the Web for example. Podcasting will happen with or without the metadata. But it would be better with it. Drop the martyr act, it’s borrrring, and get busy making a list. BTW, that’s the first time, as far as I know, that a crucifix has appeared on Scripting News. Apparently it’s also the first time the term blowjob has appeared here too.
In case you missed the significance of Dave putting a crucifix in this post - we’re both good Jewish boys and one just doesn’t endorse Jesus very often. But I guess me being a martyr prompted him to action. If you lube up the nails, they don’t hurt as much.
And if that’s what I gotta do to get meta-data into podcasting - I’d gladly do it - again.
