It would be impolite and remiss to miss noting Marty Weintraub’s appearance on yesterday’s episode of Webcology.

Marty is a social media marketing expert with a knack for helping brand ambassadors like Betty Crocker find their voices online. Marty is very good at what he does, so good in fact, he courts a unique sense of controversy. You can check his writing at the aimclear blog.

He gave us an interview that needed far more time that we had to be complete. I’m hoping he’ll come on another show in the future. Marty’s segment can be heard approximately 35 minutes into the episode.

I host a weekly webmasterradio.fm show called Webcology. Last week, WebmasterRadio asked if I would be part of a special series covering tech industry concerns and the coming US election. They didn’t need to dangle the promise of a couple high-powered interviews in front of me though it was nice of them to do so. They had me at, “Would you…?”.

We are working to create some truly interesting media files while getting a far deeper understanding of the real issues the tech industry faces over the next four to eight years. The most prominent and likely most complicated is that of Net Neutrality. It is a terribly important issue, if only for the energy being invested in both sides of the debate.

Net Neutrality is a set of principles which proponents want to see enshrined in law. One of those principles is that all data should be treated equally, regardless of file size, content type or source. Another principle states that Internet service providers should not be able to limit or deny access to content coming from a competitive source or be granted the right to charge extra fees for access to content sourced from other networks.
