All Hallows Eve Update | October 31, 2006
Jeff is married and working on adjusting to married life. We are at a point where we are retooling and making decisions as to how we can improve and work through travel issues and all.
There are some neat technologies that are in the works. Would you be interested in listening and being able to call into Artist Insider live?
If so send us a message or voicemail, contact info available on the contact page.
October Update | October 16, 2006
A couple updates for you.
Greg & Jonathan have done another interview and will be looking to do more in this time before Jeff gets back into the swing of it all. We plan on saving those interviews to help make sure we release on a regular basis.
wallop.com/ArtistInsider
Wallop is a social networking site thing that looks good and is rather easy to use. Think Myspace, but the pages look a lot better. It is invite only, but we have a few invitations to send out. Send us a email or leave us a voicemail, both found on our contact page, if you want one. We will make a waiting list if we run out.
We plan on uploading some of our free segments, and using more pictures. You can see several of our past guests there now.
myspace.com/ArtistInsider
We set up a myspace page this week. We already have a number of friends and would like more. We expect to put some of the pictures of us and some free segments there too. We will also try to add all out guests as friends, if they have a myspace page.
ArtistInsider.vox.com
This is a blog site that we plan on doing much the same, but they have networking here too, called neighbors, that allows you an easy way to keep up with us.
Vox is also invite only at this point and we have some, so tell us if you want an invitation.
ArtistInsider.com will be our main blog, but we plan on doing some little things on each of these. If you want to keep up to date with us add our RSS feed to an RSS Reader, four of the main ones are My.Yahoo.com, Google Reader, Bloglines, and Netvibes.
We have a meeting to discuss improvements to Artist Insider and a full day of recording scheduled in the next week and a half. We should start releasing more free segments next week.
September Update | September 26, 2006
Jeff is getting married, Jonathan’s work schedule is changing, and Greg has been asked to be a guest lecturer at several universities and has added more clients.
This week, Thursday evening to be exact, we will be meeting to discuss what has happened with Artist Insider, all the great points and things we have enjoyed. Then sometime after Jeff is done with the wedding stuff we will be getting together again to form a plan of action.
One of the common themes we have had is people with goals tend to accomplish more. Well, we set some goals and plotted a course when we started working on this (nearly nine months ago) and it is time to chart the next course and next set of goals. We probably should have done this a few months ago, but at least we are doing it now.
— Please send us feedback and ideas, both on how Artist Insider has helped you and how we can improve.
We will try to keep you informed, but that is in general what we will be focused on, in the time we focus on Artist Insider, for the next few weeks.
One Day Delay | August 23, 2006
I, Jonathan Nation, editor, went on a trip this past weekend. I learned something that I wish I had known before the trip. My laptop we use to record the shows is not powerful enough, or something, to edit the shows.
I was in the woods, on a mountain in a cabin, with electricity, attempting to edit the show for tonight. It just would not work. Might be the hard drive is too full.
Tonight I worked on it and just was not happy with the results, thus I am up against the post time and made the decision to delay the start of this interview. I expect that we will release this one Tuesday – Saturday then Monday and Tuesday. The good news is we already have a second interview recorded and will start editing it as soon as this first is done.
Quick Update | August 16, 2006
A break for you this week, but not for us. We have two interviews scheduled for this Thursday and a couple more in a couple weeks. We even have some celebrity types talking with us to do an interview with them, but working schedules is the hard part.
As summer ends and many people get back from vacation, we should be back to our regular schedule.
We want to thank those of you who have sent us comments, filled out our survey, shared a free segment with a friend, and put a link on your blog or other website.

One More Week | May 10, 2006
We are sifting through the feedback we have received and dealing with all the traveling each of us as individuals have been on; collectively we have visited at least 5 states in the past couple weeks.
We are of the mindset that we should not start and stop releasing audio, so we are trying to make sure we have enough build up that we will not have any more breaks.
Thanks for filling out the survey and sending in comments and suggestions. We will start releasing audio next week.
