Quote

there's something in you that loves the technology and loves the problem solving of it, and then the innovation and the creation of the thing. But you're also so pessimistic and so aggravated at it all.

Summary

Stay in IT long enough and you reach a paradox: you love the problem-solving and creation, yet you're deeply pessimistic and aggravated by it all at the same time. Podcasting 2.0 doesn't get a free pass from these criticisms either.

    I'm trying to be honest, and saying that those criticisms that apply to technology and technological velocity in general. Also apply. We don't get a free pan.
