Murphy’s Law Strikes Again

I am sorry to say that due to circumstances beyond my control, that Geek Cred will be a bit delayed. You see, my long suffering desktop machine that I used to record and produce the show finally bit the dust. As much as I would whine about how old and underpowered it was (by modern standards) it did allow me to do the show. For the time being, I am pretty much without a computer, at least one that I can use to create the show. I will hopefully be getting a new one soon, but that won’t be until about 2 weeks at least, during which I won’t be able to produce new episodes. I will do my best to respond to e-mails and be in the IRC chat room some, but that’s about all I can do with this truly ancient laptop I’m forced to use in the meantime.

I’m not trying to have a pity party here (though I’m I’ll gladly accept any donations!), I just wanted to let you guys know what’s going on, and why I don’t have a new episode out. I do want to reiterate that I am commited to doing the show, I love it, and once I am back up and running, I will get to work on the next episode right away. And as always, you can drop me an e-mail or hit up the chat room. You’ll hear from me soon, and until then, geek on!

It’s The Great Server, Chuck and Kreg! – A Friends in Tech Halloween Special

Friends in Tech presents our annual technology-themed Halloween special for this year:

It’s the Great Server Chuck and Kreg!”

Convinced that the Great Server will be making its yearly appearance, Kreg refuses to go Trick-or-Treating with the rest of the FiT gang and instead pulls an all-nighter waiting for the Great Server to “…rise up out of the server farm and brings technology to all the good geeks around the world.”

Written by Douglas E. Welch and the Members of Friends in Tech
