  • Part 3 of Sympathy for the Devil: The Plight of the Record Industry is up. scrivener looks at the various reasons “experts” cite for the problems of the recording industry and the solutions they have proposed.
  • You can hear me blather on about DJ Edna and the future of the music industry on the First Crack Podcast (hint: it has something to do with digital distribution). I haven’t listened to it yet because, well, it’s my voice and I’m not a rock star. So, if you happen to listen, let me know how I sounded in the comments.
  • DJ Edna was written up on the Minnov8 Blog.
  • I’ll be giving a presentation on developing DJ Edna with Django to the Ruby Users of Minnesota meeting on March 31, 2008.
  • After some brainstorming regarding payment models, I’ve begun another refactoring (this is #4) of the DJ Edna store application. This work is aimed at making the payment model less like a traditional “pay-first” web store and something closer to “bill me later.” I’ll blog more about this new functionality in a future post.
  • Two bands, Scatic and Homo Jenkins, have recently contracted with djedna.com to build and host DJ Edna powered web sites.
