I was on net@night

Posted in News on: Wednesday, February 3, 2010 by Paul Boag

Wow. That was exciting. I got to chat with Leo Laptorte & Amber Mac on one of my favourite shows net@night.

I love net@night. It’s a great show. It’s laid back, informal and talks about all the web stuff that warms my heart.

You can therefore imagine how excited I was to be on the show this week. Both Leo and Amber have been a huge influence on my podcasting and so it was great to talk to them both.

We chatted about web design trends, the boagworld podcast and the website owners manual. It was loads of fun and I hope I get the chance to talk to the guys again in the future.

    Nice one Paul. I started listening to net@night about the same time I started listening to Boagworld. I have wondered why I hadn’t heard you on there yet, although they have mentioned boagworld a bit.

    Ugh! You should have mentioned the coupon code earlier. I bought the book as I was listening before you mentioned the code. But that’s ok, I’m happy to support Headscape.

    Hey Paul

    I’m just so darned proud of you – you did an absolutely top job !!!

    I’ve listened to you since day one and to all of Leo’s stuff since his very early days too! You guys coming together is fantastic!

    I’ve heard you mention stuff you’ve heard on a Leo podcast before so I knew you listened to some of his shows… but a little patriotic part of me wanted him to know about you too. And now I know he does – hurrah!

    Thank you for all the content over the years – I’m looking forward to the 12th !!

    PS – I’m a girl – so you do have some girl listeners !
