Transcript – Big Data Beard Podcast Announcement

Hi, folks! Thomas Henson here with thomashenson.com. Today, I’m in a different location. Looks like a construction site, right?

That’s because changes are coming. I’m building an office right now, and at some point in the future, I’m going to have a video maybe showing that office off.

With all these changes coming, I wanted to announce another big change. That’s a new podcast for you to listen to. If you follow me on Twitter, you’ve probably heard about the Big Data Beard Podcast. Look at all these tweets.

That’s a good way to keep in touch, but the Big Data Beard Podcast just released a couple weeks ago. Big Data Bears Podcast? This is going to be epic!

Beard. Check. Talks about big data, check. The Big Data Beard Podcast is a Podcast with a group of engineers I’ve been working with, and what we decided was, we decided we should take our conversations that we have over coffee, or beers, or just at conferences, start recording those, and maybe have some guests along the way. This is a great way for you to be able to find out what’s going on in big data and data analytics, and also a great way to get more information.

I’m all about learning, and all about finding ways to get more involved in the community, and find out what’s going on. This is a great way, in under an hour, once a week, to be able to be involved, have some information, and then even interact with us.

If you’d like to appear on the show, or you have any ideas for the show, post them in the comments here. Send them on Twitter. However, you can get in touch with me, just give us those ideas, and we’ll be sure to field those questions.

Make sure you subscribe and check out the Big Data Beard Podcast. Thanks, folks!
