Will the Techy Tidbits Podcast Continue After January 1, 2011?

Greetings podcast listeners, and blog readers.
It appears to me that since we started the podcast back in August, we have not gotten much feedback.
This is the purpose of this post.
If I do not receive more than four comments from podcast listeners by December 1, 2010, the podcast will be cancelled and will no longer be produced starting January first, 2011.
If that happens, never fear. The blog will still remain, and I will redouble my effort and possibly take this blog in some kind of new direction.
So, this brings me to my conclusion.
Will the Techy Tidbits Podcast still be produced in 2011?
The answer is, it all depends on you, the listener!

Hims Might Just Step Up to the Plate After All!

Greetings!
As many of you know, Hims and Gw Micro have split up.
To me, at least so far, Hims has decided, at least in my opinion, to step up to the plate when it comes to tech support, sales, etc etc.
This surprises me greatly.
Who ever would've thought that we would get that much from a small company in that short amount of time?

Goal Ball! Here we Come!

Greetings all!
This is Tyler, writing to you from the iowa braille school!
I want to say that I am currently here for a Goal Ball tournament.
However, we leave for St. Louis in the morning.
So what in the world is Goal Ball?
It's no sighted sport, folks!
Infact, you are blindfolded the whole time!
hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
You folks that thought that you could use your eyes to play, were so wrong!
Ok, so enough of my blabering!
Let's get to the main points!
First, this tournament is a double elimination tournament.
This means, that whatever the circumstances, we get to play two games!
Wohoo!
Starting out, the boys will play Kansas.
Games consist of two 10 minute halves.
Here's an example of how theywill start a game.
"Kansas, are you ready?"
"Yaaaaa!"
"Iowa, are you ready?"
"Wohooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"
So lets hope the boys from Iowa win, ok?
Alright, looks like I should close this out and get a snack!
Before I go, however, I'd just like to remind everyone to check out
The Iowa Braille school home page!
I'm assuming they will have some pictures posted there.
Ok, enough for tonight!
Have a great day!

My Thoughts on the GW Micro and Hims split!

Hello readers!
If you haven't heard,
Hims, Inc.
decided to split the partnership between themselves, and
Gw Micro
As you might imagine, this was a small downfall for GW Micro, as they were the Hims distributer here in North America.
Hims has decided to open there own U.S office, and reform there sales stratigy.
In just a few weeks, GW Micro will end all technical support, sales, and all other repairs for all hims hardware products.
Here are my thoughts on the subject.
First, I don't think Hims understands what G W Micro has done to make the products what they are today, and technically, I think that this will hurt them in the long run.
Seccondly, look at all the knoledge base articles that GW Micro has written for the Hims products.
Will Hims make GW take them off the GW site?
Will GW leave them there? Nobody knows.
Next, look at all the great phone Technical support that GW provided for these products.
Will we receive this great service from Hims?
Will Hims decide to go back to GW Micro as the North American distributer?
It will be interesting to hear the answers to these questions, won't it?
