Did I ever mention how I don't release most of the audio and video I create? It's because I'm too ~~chicken~~ picky.

Well, I've created what I like to call The Chumbucket. All the podcasts and videos that just aren't good enough for me, I'm puttin' them online. Love 'em or hate 'em, I could care less, just don't complain. It's all going in The Chumbucket, and I'm not going to keep track of how many people download what.

Wanna feast from The Chumbucket?

Gimme money. (If you've already donated, I should have just sent you the URL.)
Take this marketing survey. It'll get the attention of potential advertisers.
Link to me from your blog to increase my Technorati score.
Do all three and I'll write your name on the body part of your choosing. (But not that body part. Unless you're a cute babe.)

I will do my best to keep The Chumbucket filled to the brim by going through the old stuff whenever I can. Let me know when you've done any of the above and I'll set your place at the trough.

Ok…now which body part?

I bought a pair of the mics you use on the show. The mics look great, but my Creative Zen Nano is bricked. And I don't have anything to record in stereo with.

@David: Email address? The 'Bucket is invitation-only, to keep out the riff-raff.

Well that's good to know, after noticing I couldn't get in after I took the survey I tried google for help and found that you have a lot of strange stuff on the site that I never noticed.

So be it. Looks like I'll be putting .htaccess to more use from now on.
8 Rich Pav // Mar 7, 2007 at 3:49 pm

@Alex, I'm going to hunt you down in my web logs and learn your secrets.
9 Alex // Mar 7, 2007 at 4:00 pm

Hey Rick, I took the survey! Your page is also linked in my del.icio.us account, whose content partially displays in my blog (not sure if that helps though).

Looking forward to watch your 2nd choice
22 missb // Mar 8, 2007 at 7:17 am

Attaboy! Post it all! You've inspired me…perhaps I'll get brave like that!

(off to take the survey now)
23 john // Mar 8, 2007 at 11:36 am

Ok, all surveyed up. I would donate some cash but I am broke at the moment. Maybe when I can aford it you will see some $ pop into your paypal account.

Either way, Id love to hear these misc recordings. I have been listening to you ramble on for so long now and I would love to hear what you put in your 'pass' pile..
24 Albert // Mar 8, 2007 at 12:47 pm

Alright, Rich, just filled the survey, lemme in! Gonna be donating soon too.
25 Sluggo // Mar 8, 2007 at 2:46 pm

Hey Rich, you've been linked from my blog for like a hundred years now I think. I'm surprised you're not damned wealthy by now. Anyway, you're too slow at podcasting to keep me fixed all the time, so I'll bob for rotten apples in your Chumbucket, if you'll have me… Sir. Please. Ahem.
26 Sluggo // Mar 8, 2007 at 3:04 pm

Oh, and I took the survey as well. So there.
27 steve // Mar 8, 2007 at 5:06 pm

Send me the Chumbucket link, please. I took the survey and have had you linked on my blog since I started it, last year. I am curious to see all of your crap!

Thanks.

If you want to rise from the dirt, I am sure there are a lot of us willing to spread your name far and wide on the net. Are you ready for it?
28 Simon // Mar 8, 2007 at 7:48 pm

Hey Rich,

Had you on my blog/site for a while and since you were mentioning raising you Technorati score. I hope to get a hold of the Chumbucket, it must be good.
29 jenni // Mar 9, 2007 at 4:00 am

posted your site on my livejournal as well as in my profile

So send the chum over~
