    Hello!

    Well done on the podcast, it is good to hear about ubuntu and related things from people based in the UK.

    I have been using ubuntu for about a year as a secondary os to osx, although I am planning to make the switch over ubuntu as my primary os in 2008.

    I am still relatively new to linux, and it would be great to know what are the best applications to use. Maybe in a future podcast you could give an overview different software such as music players, graphics programs,and suggesting what software to try and pros and cons etc.

    thanks,

    Michael

    Great first episode. Good quality compared to the first episode of other podcasts. Looking forward to the next one.

    It would be nice to have a feed announcing when each new episode is released.

    More please!

    Best Ubuntu podcast I’ve heard yet. How about a feature on essential terminology/acronyms for newbies?

  • BobCFC

    It’s like listening to Linux on Radio 4!

    Amazing for a first attempt, when you go back and compare to the first episodes of LugRadio or tllts you guys seem confident and ready to go.

    Please can we have more round table debates, discussions and arguments; we want opinions not just news.

    At last, an Ubuntu podcast worth listening to! Good production quality, good structure, decent format, no one item too long; nobody talking over each other – proof that its not rocket science!
    More please.

    Gentlemen: Greetings from sunny Arizona. Just listened to your podcast. Information was great — production values were fabulous. Brisk, intelligent, fun to listen to, and I loved the musical “bumpers” between segments. Looking forward to hearing more.

    Another excellent podcast! I particularly liked Dianne (I belong in her museum as an exhibit) and the segment on pronouncification.
