Head on over to http://www.securabit.com to listen to episode 4.  We had a few audio hiccups, but overall I think it came out great.

We have forums/IRC up as well, and hope the community starts building up.

I’m pretty happy with what we’ve managed to do with the SecuraBit show so far.  Other than some audio issues and getting too drunk, I think we’re on the right track.  For the next show I plan on changing the format slightly to have a better flow to things.  I think the correct mix of alcohol to show was Ep 2 though.

I do still manage to jump on Tabula Rasa here and there, although my subscription will be ending soon and I won’t be renewing.  Another MMO bites the dust for me, I can never actually keep playing the things for any length of time, and when I do it’s an hour a week if I am lucky.

The job search is on.  I think one of the more important things for me when I look at companies is what sort of management structure is in place for what they are doing, how well communication flows up and down, and whether there’s been any thought put into the actual environment people work in.  I wouldn’t mind getting into something with a lot of R&D-esque work, provided there was a proper setup for it, space/equipment/etc.

Christine will be moving down soon, which should make the summer a lot more fun, and probably less costly on gas as well. :) 

I’m roughly 50% in GTA 4 now, and showing signs of slowing down.  This is by far the furthest I have ever gotten in the GTA series in terms of story, and I do plan to eventually finish every mission available to me.  I think I am finally ready to start playing it online in a halfway serious manner now that there isn’t much left in terms of spoilers.

Rock Band is still at weekly staple for me.  I did finally finish Green Grass and High Tides, although it was in the practice mode so it doesn’t count to anyone but me, seeing as there’s really no way I am ever going to get any further than around 85% through the song.  I’m able to play many songs on Expert on the drums now, although the kick drumming really kills me as my body just isn’t wired for my feet and arms to be on a different beat from each other, so I know there’s a ceiling I will hit there. 

This weekend Christine and I are going to a wedding, which we’re baking the cake for.  That should be an interesting experience as I have never really baked anything before.  Hopefully I am relegated to measuring stuff out and handing it over. ;)

I think our next SecuraBit show (and last with all of us in the same room) will be next Wednesday evening.  We’re going to try to make certain that our audio is all on the same level this time around.

Head on over to http://www.securabit.com to check out episode 2 of our show.  It should be quite the riot, and far more entertaining than the first.

Please leave feedback if you have any. 

We’re recording Ep 2 tonight, slight possiblity of live streaming, and we’ll get that out to everyone if we do.  We have some interesting topics lined up, and if we’ve figured out our audio like I think we have, Chris Mills will be able to join us.

There’s also a contest we have going on to come up with a good slogan for which we’re giving away a yubikey.  Head over to http://www.securabit.com!

The site’s finally up at http://securabit.com.  Darren’s working on the logo, and I am working on talking points and format for next week’s pilot.  Jay is working on the intro and ending music, what he’s come up with so far is great stuff.  I’m going to work on creating a page with a slick little layout to incorporate some of the RSS feeds we think are most relevant to the show.

If you have any comments, insights, etc please let me know, as well as if you want to be a guest.
