No show: Making Marcus Jealous

Published on: November 14, 2006 by Paul Boag

Just a quick reminder that there will be no boagworld podcast this week as I am living it up in Florida.

I know I announced in last week’s show that I wouldn’t be putting out a podcast this week but I just wanted to remind you all because I know you don’t always pay attention ;)

I guess if I am honest I also wanted to rub Marcus’ nose in the fact that I am sunny myself in Florida while he is enduring the British winter. However, Marcus will be pleased to know that Jeremy Keith and Andy Budd are keeping me in my place (through various imaginative put downs) so he doesn’t need to worry too much about my ego over inflating.

In case you don’t know I am in Orlando in order to participate in the Refresh 06 web design conference. I am really excited about it and can’t wait for it to kick off. There are actually a few places left so if you are quick you might be able to grab a ticket and join us. Go on, you know you want to!

Anyway, must go… I am off to Universal studios soon!

    Good luck Paul! If Jeremy Keith and Andy Budd are candles, then you're a flamethrower! Over-inflate your ego!
    Are you still feeling ill?

    I know it's too late now, but I kept meaning to say this would be a great opportunity to hear another Headscape voice with Marcus. Perhaps next time?

    Hope Florida is treating you well.

    paul,

    You gave 2 great talks at Refresh06. Especially the 'mistery meat' one. Andy and Jeremy must've liked them too since they had to try and contradict you. :P

    Now, you can be one of the big boys and give talks all around the world...Get on that book tour asap...

    good job!
