Welcome to Little Dragon Radio

Hello and thanks for dropping by. This is just a holding page until I get my act together sufficently to create a proper page so be sure and drop by again soon. The links to the RSS feed and the MP3's won't change however so be sure to add me to your favourite podcast aggregator right now!

What's Little Dragon Radio About?

It's all about Dracunculus the little green dragon (me) having a good old moan about what's been happening in the world since the last podcast, doing my bit to help you out by naming and shaming the sub-standard products and services you might want to avoid (I bought crap so you don't have to) and in between playing some really good but obscure music from around the 80's. In the future I'm hoping to add some more segments including the coding geek must-listen "Design Pattern of the Week" slot! I'm open to suggestions (like "why on earth do you want to bore us stupid with all this guff about design patterns?") so be sure and drop me a line at "dracunculus at gmail dot com"

Each show is around 30 minutes long and around a 14 to 18 Mb download.

How do I listen?

Simply download the MP3 from the link below - either click on it to listen immediately or right-click and choose "save link as" to listen to it later or load it into your portable music device (Mac users will have to do whatever perverted click and button thing they do to accomplish this task).

You might also like to get a podcast aggregator and subscribe to the RSS Feed on the site which will then automatically download my latest rants and raves as soon as I put them up!

Why does it start at Podcast 2?

Because podcast one was crap and if I uploaded it you'd be forever fiddling with the volume on your i-Plod as I didn't get the levels right.

Is your podcast child-safe?

Yes, for a given value of "safe", I'm an adult (it may not seem that I am sometimes) and sometimes I'll be discussing grown up things. However I don't say "f**k" on air. Well not too often anyway.

Have you got a regular blog?

Yes, it's called "That's not a bug, it's a feature"... read it now before I get fired for blogging about where I work.

Cool, now shut up and take me to the podcasts!
