News and Comment segment 3:58 Geek News Central hosted the first 24 hour podcast marathon in December to raise money for the One Laptop Per Child program. The Force Field was invited to participate and I signed on as a guest for half an hour from 10:30 PM to 11 PM Eastern. The entire 24 hour podcast marathon was released in segments beginning last week. You can download the segments at www.24hrpodcast.com. The Force Field is discussed in segment 16. Last week we welcomed a new editor to The Force Field.net. On his first day as an editor I wanted to give him a quick tutorial on some of the powerful publishing features on The Force Field web site. So we set up a session with GoToMeeting. Try GotoMeeting free for 30 days! For this special offer, visit www.gotomeeting.com/techpodcasts . Microsoft issued a warning last week advising users of a bug in Microsoft Windows Home Server that corrupts files used by certain applications. The flaw causes file corruption when they are loaded into the applications for editing and saved to the server. For more information reference Microsoft KB article 946676. Interestingly, they did not advise users against storing their files on Microsoft Windows Home Server.
