Bytemarks Cafe

  I just got word this past week that I'll be doing a weekly radio show on KIPO-FM 89.3, one of the Hawaii Public Radio stations here in Honolulu. Of course the show will be called Bytemarks Cafe and will be about tech and the Internet, mainly oriented around the people doing cool and interesting things in our community. It'll be a magazine format with news bytes, interviews, cool websites and an audio pick of the week. I am always on the hunt for information like this so if you have any suggestions please send them by way. Over the next few weeks I will put up a blog and wiki for feedback but you can also contact me directly at bytemarks [at] gmail (.) com or Twitter me at Bytemarks. The air date for the show will be this coming July which gives me a little time to gather my resources and develop a format. I am totally excited about this opportunity. I've always had this love affair with radio dating back to my days at Stanford when I did a radio show there. Believe it or not, I know a couple of people (not including myself) who've actually heard that show. Another interesting side note, it'll be 10 years, this year since Bytemarks debuted in the Honolulu Advertiser as a tech/Internet column. Anyway, more details to follow. In the meantime, if you've got any show ideas, please let me know. You know me, I am game for almost anything.

Great news Burt, congratulations! Nice way to mark that 10-year anniversary for Bytemarks. When I travel to Oahu come July I'll know where to instantly set my rental car's radio dial now!

Awesome news Burt! Gonna have to get my car radio fixed. Or perhaps somehow convince you to make podcasts of your spots with my mighty mind powers! >_>
