They said it couldn’t be done! At the academy, they laughed in our faces when we proposed a secret worldwide organization entirely of people named Dan. But we showed them—oh, we showed them indeed. If you weren’t satisfied with our own latest MacUser Podcast, you can head over to the Mothership and catch the MacUser Dans (myself and Mr. Pourhadi), along with Macworld editors Dan Frakes and Dan Miller, on the inaugural Macworld DanCast.
The Secret League of Dans discusses a number of topics, including the preponderance of iPhones, the ModBook, speech recognition software from MacSpeech, and so much more. How did it go? I think I give nothing away when I say it was dantastic, featuring 400% of your Danly Recommended Allowance. And, if you listen very hard, you can hear David Pogue shouting in the background, trying to be heard over the merriment and joy the DanCast brings with it. Sorry, man, but I believe you’ll find that in a round of Macworld Hold ‘Em, a hand of four Dans beats one David every single time.
Will there be another DanCast? I make no promises, but I think I can say that if Dans the world over have anything to say about it, we’ll be back again next year—or perhaps even sooner.
