    The World Wide Web, Content, Work, Blogging Adventures, Short Videos, etc., with Russell Davies

    We talk with Russell Davies this episode. He has done many things, above all else made lots of interesting content and messed around with producing content. Advertising, blogging and the World Wide Web of the 2000's, interesting conferences (call exactly that: interesting), books, and of late, he's been mastering the short video format. I am a big fan of Flora and his ("he's"?) recent podcast, WIP (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL4Fd3P49w3AxjSX-5i3ICmX0KnYOWaQ9x). Here is a fantastic episode (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Jon5JZKmgM). All of Russell's stuff is to be found on his home page on the World Wide Web (https://www.russelldavies.com/index.html), those his photos (https://www.flickr.com/photos/russelldavies/) take some time tracking down. Also, Coté wears plaid on plaid. This was not done unknowingly. Here is the video version of this episode (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zK7rDwtJXTM), if you prefer that kind of thing. Special Guest: Russell Davies.
