Time to come out of mothballs...
I have not used this platform for a long time,so it's probably time to open her up again.
A while back I allowed my domain doghousecharlie.com to expire, as I could not justify the expense.
For the next little while I will be using this blog to announce upcoming programming tips, especially with the holiday season approaching. I normally also use Facebook and Twitter for this. This will just be an extension of those efforts.
Feel free to drop me a line with any tips to programming_matters at yahoo dot ca

The intriguing listening habits of World Service fans
The intriguing listening habits of World Service fans
Post categories: On the show, Your views
Penny Vine | 12:20 UK time, Friday, 9 October 2009
After the appearance of Anne Koch, Deputy Director of the World Service in English on last week's programme and Rajan's appeal to tell us more about your listening habits - we were inundated with responses.
As there were far too many to include in this week's edition, I thought I'd use this post to summarise what you said.

CBC Radio One - Ideas Oct 12 2009
Looking Up On Ideas
400 years ago, a novel optical device from Holland made its way to Italy. There, it got into the hands of a free-thinking mathematician named Galileo Galilei. He soon aimed the instrument skyward – and our universe changed forever.
Since that time, astronomers have been building bigger and better telescopes. And their discoveries continue to challenge us.
This week on IDEAS, science journalist Dan Falk tells the remarkable story of Galileo and the revolution he began.
It's a part one of a special celebration of astronomy on IDEAS. Monday, October 12th at 9 p.m. (9:30 NT) on CBC Radio One. Part two airs on Monday, October 19th.

Broadcasting to the World - RCI Beginnings
http://archives.cbc.ca/arts_entertainment/media/clips/10979/
Broadcasting to the world
Broadcast Date: Feb. 25, 1945
The Second World War is winding down in Europe, but Canada's new international shortwave radio service is just getting started. From its studios in Montreal and a web of shortwave transmission towers in Sackville, N.B., the service targets both Canadian and foreign listeners. In this inaugural broadcast, Prime Minister Mackenzie King says the International Service of the CBC will extend Canadian ideals of equality and freedom to the world.
King is joined by Justice Minister Louis St-Laurent, who addresses the audience in French, and by Howard B. Chase, chairman of the CBC board of governors. The three talk about the service's goal of reflecting Canada beyond its borders. The International Service will broadcast to the United Kingdom and western Europe in three languages — English, French and German — with a signal that is strong and clear.
