After what seems like a short but long time, we’re back with a new podcast. It’s been an interesting few months. Take a listen to this new episode to find out what we’ve been up to, and what we’re going to be up to. Then, we discuss an issue that Aaron is very passionate about: usability and user advocacy.

To whet your appetite, this week we’re presenting an interview that Aaron did at DocTrain West 2007 with Emma Hamer. In it, Aaron and Emma discuss content management.

This week, we’re posting an interview that Scott did earlier this year with Chip Gettinger of Astoria Software. In the interview, Chip and Scott discuss XML authoring and Astoria’s content management software; component content management and how it differs from Web and document content management; and how component content management can benefit both technical communicators and the organizations with which they work.
Note that the quality of the audio isn’t the greatest. It was recorded over Skype, and there is some background noise and the occasional dropout.

This week, we look at what some might consider a controversial topic: technical writing, India, and offshoring. Is this a threat, or just another opportunity? Listen for our $0.02.

We’re back! It’s been a long while since we’ve published a podcast, and believe us it’s been a long, strange, and interesting trip.
In this edition, we talk about where we’ve been and what we’ve been up to; discuss taking your work and not yourself seriously; and we uncork another pick of the week.
You’ll probably notice that this week’s edition is a tad rough around the edges — it’s been a while since we’ve flexed out podcasting muscles and we recorded it using Google Talk instead of Skype.
