[Swprograms] Yours Truly shows up on the BBC's "Over To You"



The most recent edition of "Over To You" -- the successor to "Write
On" -- features a few seconds of my voice...at roughly 13 minutes into
the program.

I had sent in a suggestion regarding the need to make content more
convenient to access via the web -- the "London Calling" special
series could be accessed online only by clicking 13 different links
for individual stories.  Hardly a convenient way to listen.

Well, it turns out the BBC is in the midst of a year-long reworking of
their English language website, so they called me up and interviewed
me for a few minutes.  The quote they actually used deals with how
content is organized on the website.

I owe Joe Buch a royalty payment for using the term "schedule gods"...
I believe Joe was the first person I saw use that moniker to talk
about the advantages of on-demand listening.

The offending edition of "Over To You" should remain available for
on-demand listening until early Sunday, and can be found here:
