Episode 112 of Hemispheric Views was one of the crazier ones.
The orange one being found guilty has made me so happy. He’s going to be so full of rage now - watch out America.
Slash Guy
On Hemispheric Views it has become a bit of a running gag that when I become interested in something new or different, the phrase, “I’m an insert interest here guy!” is unleashed.
Most recently this was raised in Hemispheric Views E112 when it became clear that “I’m a footy guy!”.
Robb Knight has formalised the collection of slash pages across the IndieWeb.
Persuant to that list, I hereby submit an RFC—not to the IETF—but to the RKTF (Robb Knight Task Force) to formally add /preferred-pronoun as another potential slash page.
For my purposes, that page would be entitled /guy.
Hereforth, as best as I can recall and in no particular order is my current list:
- I’m a pencil guy!
- I’m a beach guy!
- I’m a footy guy!
- I’m a dSLR guy!

I don’t do much in the way of ‘life advice’, but here’s one: get up early!
As in,
05:00early.
Today I woke up just after 5am. I read this post yesterday. I’m not pleased with Johnny’s undesired influence. I’m not a morning guy.
Over the past few years I have made some amazing Internet friends. I’ve met people with whom I have much in common. The only problem is they are distant. How much I would love to find a friend who is local. Whom I could go to the pub with and talk to in person.
I sometimes wonder how other people live. At dinner time, what do they eat? How do they organise their evenings? Do their homes resemble my own?
I would love the opportunity to observe a bunch of other lives, in other homes. Are we all the same? Or do we differ wildly?
It’s a curiosity of mine.

Slash pages are common pages you can add to your website, usually with a standard, root-level slug like
/now,/about, or/uses.
I’m particularly partial to /defaults and /save

Now I’m mostly listening to a handful Relay shows like Connected, Rec Diffs, and Ungeniused plus Hemispheric Views, ATP, and Really Specific Stories.
I’m not going to lie. It’s pretty cool to have my podcast mentioned in the same breath as some of these big names. Thanks Robb!
The one thing I want to buy after the announcement of new iPads? A replacement battery for my existing iPad Pro (3rd gen).
Our pal @rknightuk has knocked this one out of the park. We talked albums on Hemispheric Views E110. Now Robb has built a replica-iTunes to catalogue responses from listeners. It’s incredible.
I’ve completed the first Chapter of the Johnny Decimal Workshop. This is a pre-recorded video training course that has excellent production values. If you want to get organised, I highly recommend it.
