Matt and I have been doing Kill The Desktop for quite awhile now. Our first episode was published on July 9, 2007. We’ve come a long way since that time. The audio has gotten so much better, it’s hard to describe. You just have to go back and listen to it. It was awful! We’re so comfortable with being in front of the microphone now. In the beginning we probably spent more time doing takes than taping actual content. These days, it’s rare that we have to do any editing of the show in post-production.
Something we don’t talk a lot about on the show is our numbers. Currently, we see about 1,500 unique downloads of Kill The Desktop on a monthly basis. That’s amazing! We started with nothing. We had a few friends follow the show and that was about it. We’ve never paid to advertise, or have ever really had formal advertising. Word of mouth is what has helped us grow. So over the last 9 months we’ve gone from a handful of unique downloads to 1,500 every month. We couldn’t be happier with the progression we’ve seen over these last 9 months.
We’re loving the interaction ustream.tv has provided and will definitely continue to use it moving forward. We want to ask you, our listeners, how we can improve the show. What should we continue to do? What should we change? Our feedback from you is what makes the show what it is today. We want to continue that.
We also want to continue to grow. If you like the show, tell your friends about it! If you have a blog, post about us! We’d greatly appreciate the “spreading of the word” about Kill The Desktop. So please, if you promote us, tell us about it! After all, that’s how we’ve grown since day 1.
Thanks for listening.
