It isn’t everyday you get to talk to an Overlord but in this episode we did!  In this episode we talked to the Overlord of Windows Azure, Steve Marx.  Steve gives us the scoop on Windows Azure which we renamed to the Overlord in the Cloud.  We found it much more fitting. 

In this episode we break down Azure and discuss what it is, why you might want to use it, cost, availability and much more.

Enjoy.

PDC 2008 was a blast and as previous noted Deep Fried Bytes was there onsite recording live!  We talked about meeting up with fellow podcasters before PDC and finally on Thursday we were able to put together a podcaster round table session together to recap all the events from PDC. 

Joining us on this show is Jeff Atwood of Stackoverflow and Jon Gallow, Scott Koon and Kevin Dente of Herding Code.  We are doing something a little different with this episode.  To help everyone cross pollinate listeners, we posted the first part of this conversation to Deep Fried, and Herding Code is posting the second part of the show on their site.  It is a great show, we cover lots of announcements from PDC and everyone weighs in with their own special take on the events.  Enjoy.

This is part two of a conversation we had with Luis Villa.  In the second part of this conversation we talk to Luis about all sorts of things including open source licenses, Google, Apple, Microsoft, Office and more.  We even have a war stories segment in this episode.  This is a continuation of part one, but honestly, we think it is the best part.  Enjoy.

Deep Fried Bytes Recording Live from PDC 2008

image We had a blast recording live from PDC 2008!  We managed to get about nine podcasts recorded during PDC.  Now the hard part begins, the post production work! 

On the last day of PDC 2008 we rounded up all the podcasters we could find to do a round table discussion and recap PDC.  We recorded a show with Jeff Atwood of Stack Overflow and Jon Galloway, Scott Koon and Kevin Dente of Herding Code.  We’ll be publishing this show first.  To cross pollinate our shows we’ll be posting the show at the same time but will break up the show into multiple parts so everyone can share.   

Our good friend Laurel Ruma from O’Reilly took this picture of us recording a show with Oliver Sturm of DevExpress.  As you can see, we were right in the middle of expo recording.  We’ll be doing a lot of post production work on the audio we recorded to make sure we remove as much background noise as possible but WOW did we record some great shows (and I’m not just saying that either). 

A big thanks go all of our guests and friends that stopped by to say hi. 

To see the line up of shows we’ve got coming out head over to our Up and Coming shows page here http://deepfriedbytes.com/up-and-coming/.

UPDATE

I found a picture Scott Koon took while we were recording the podcaster round table.
