Hello Geekzone!

What an awesome local community of geeks. I've been checking out the news and forums here for ages now...have finally gotten around to registering, and hopefully contributing!

I'd like to invite Geekzone members to listen to a new homegrown Kiwi technology podcast that a fellow geek mate and I record fortnightly. We're The Ministry of Geek, a couple of Kiwi blokes that have decided to express our creativity through the wonderful medium of podcasting. In classic No. 8 wire style we just thought "Why not? Let's just do it!"

Our blog's at theministryofgeek.wordpress.com and you can subscribe to us on iTunes here, or download episodes from the rss feed here.

We welcome any feedback you have as we're evolving the show and already have a good number of listeners -- but always welcome more! Cheers.

Regards,
Richard

One Half of The Ministry of Geek

Thanks...I did include http:// in the first post but the links failed to embed on updating the post (any ideas why? Would like to sort this out for future posts!)

Chose not to prefix with http:// in second post because...well, kind of redundant as most all browsers will assume the http protocol when you paste in the URL (but would this have made the URLs 'live'?) Cheers.
