The Internet Monthly is a monthly podcast dedicated to the latest news and developments in the internet that I produce for Zen Internet and syndicate on my blog. However, things don’t always go according to plan!

Everyone has their good days and bad, and recording podcasts is certainly no exception to the rule. So, I have put together a short collection of out-takes and bloopers made during the recording sessions of the monthly podcast for your seasonal amusement. Enjoy…

Before the final days of 2008 draw to a close, I’d just like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you to all of you that have followed my blog over the last year. Hopefully I haven’t peaked and I’ll have plenty of interesting things to talk about in the new year…

Merry Christmas!
