We’ll take some time to reflect on all that happened in our little corner of the world in 2009, but we don’t want to look back for too long or we’ll miss all the things that are coming in 2010.  There will be tears (no there won’t).  There will be laughter (at least I hope so).  There are a couple of very special things we want to tell you.  And there will be predictions for the year to come!

And that’s why I’m writing this to you!  It’s my sincere hope that the predictions won’t just be coming from Mike, Rick and I.  We want YOUR predictions to!  What’s going to happen in 2010?  In Tech?  In Portland?  In our crazy little scene?  In the world?  We want to know!

You can tell us one of two ways:

Send me an email at strangelovelive@gmail.com with the subject: 2010 Predictions and we’ll read it on the air!

-OR-

You can leave Rick a message at 503 662 2564 and we’ll play it on the air!

That seems easy, right?  Now get on it, times a wasting.

Then join us right here, live at 10 PM Friday January 1, 2010!

Join us on Friday’s Tech Edition where we talk to Rick about the Silicon Florist’s first two years.  Get all nostalgic as we talk of topics past and swell with hope as we talk about what will be.  Then there was cake.

Then it was on to afterhours.  I’ll be honest babies, we put our all into making this funny and ridiculous but maybe we just weren’t in the right head space for it.  After an impression by Doc and a little silliness with Rick we were back to a serious conversation.  It was a good afterhours session and I feel like some good topics were addressed, I just hope you can take it seriously while Rick is wearing a yellow plastic pearl and jewel encrusted tiara.  We liked it so much it may show up on the show again.

We’re back with another live episode next Friday with guest Aaron Hockley who’ll be talking about the upcoming WordCamp Portland.  It’s sure to be a great event and I’m not just saying that because I’m friends with the organizer, or because I’ll be giving a talk on podcasting, or because last year’s was awesome.  I’m saying that because that’s what you say when you’re promoting a show that will be promoting a conference… but that doesn’t make it any less true.  Join us live at 10 PM Friday August 14th to get in on the fun!
