Just One More Book!! Children’s book Review Podcasts

http://www.justonemorebook.com/

Email to me asking me to blog a site almost inevitably end up in the round file, but I’ll make an exception for the playful Just One More Book!! site for a few reasons.

One is simply its subject, reviews of children’s books. As a parent of young kids I can never get enough good tips on new books to read them at bedtime. Another is the design of the site, which is simple, playful and easy to use (I really love the categories on offer, a nice way to approach kids books). And finally for a reason that is both an attraction and detraction to the site – they record all of their podcasts in their local coffee shop. As I longtime coffee shop afficiando this immediately attracted me, and the ambiance on the recordings *can* give them a nice feel, but for the most part really they just make them a bit harder to understand. Anyways, fun site, and once in a while you gotta give a little google love when someone asks. – SWL

My interview with the CogDog

http://cogdogblog.com/conversations/scott-leslie.mp3

As part of the cogdog’s recent tour down under, he interviewed a number of blog colleagues for quotable quotes. I just found the one I did with him now and listened to it for the first time (what, like this is a revealing admission, from a blogger?)

I must admit I’m actually kind of proud how it turned out – I must have had my coffee that day and been slightly less sleep-deprived than usual, because this is probably as coherent a statement of what I think and what I am interested in right now as I’ve produced. Thanks for the great questions Alan, and for helping me frame these scattered thoughts a little better. – SWL
