Show Notes

<p>My first on-the-road podcast, July 16, 2004.</p><p>As the name implies, I'm driving on <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstate_25_in_New_Mexico">Interstate 25</a> in New Mexico between <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truth_or_Consequences,_New_Mexico">Truth or Consequences</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socorro,_New_Mexico">Socorro</a>. </p><p>Two days since downloading email. Different times. Wifi is scarce as are cellphone signals in 2004. </p><p>2004 nerd heaven: iPod, Nikon Coolpix camera, laptop, USB connection to camera, power adapter that hooks into cigarette lighter (cars used to have them). </p><p>Remember it's 2004, long before ubiquitous connectivity. But I still don't have cell coverage where I live, in 2024, it's not everywhere yet. </p><p>A week later I'll be at the DNC in Boston. </p><p>Didn't get my email in Socorro. Apparently no net connectivity to be found. The old days. </p><p>I talk about taking pictures, but I can't find them. They should be on <a href="http://davetravel.scripting.com/">davetravel.scripting.com</a>, which was previously hosted at Berkman, but I moved it to my server when I left. </p><p>The <a href="http://scripting.com/2004/07/16.html">Scripting News archive page</a> for July 16, 2004. </p>
