TDYR #094 - The Extremely Cool Thing About Youth Curling Bonspiels Is ... by Dan York

A quick episode recorded on a ski lift and also while skiing (if you hang on to the end after I "ended" the episode).

Sadly, NBC has once again failed Americans who are "cord-cutters" by restricting the live coverage of the Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics to only people with cable/satellite TV subscriptions. Although their App Store app claims that you can watch live feeds from the Olympics for free, it turns out that you have to sign in or you are limited to only a few minutes of viewing each day.

Want to register a domain in .PLUMBING? .SEXY? .CLUB? .PHOTO? .PINK? With more new generic top-level domains (newgTLDs) appearing each week, how do you keep track of what is going to be out in DNS soon? In this episode I talk a bit about the newgTLDs and about an article I wrote on CircleID where I talked about how to keep track of all the newgTLDs: http://www.circleid.com/posts/20140120_how_to_ke...

Today is Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day here in the USA and in this episode I reflect on the day and the teachings of Dr. King, Jr. - and both how far we've come and how far we still have to go. I Have A Dream Speech: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smEqnnklfYs

Trying to watch the NFL Playoffs tonight over the Internet, one network (CBS Sports) rocked and let "cord-cutters" watch the game (with advertising) while the other network (Fox Sports) was still stuck in the legacy business model where they require you to login with your "TV provider", which, of course, I don't have as a "cord-cutter"...
