Ramblings from the Marginalized

Everyone knows Leo Laporte's closing line on TWiT

Another Twit, is in the can.

But, is TWiT headed for the proverbial "round file" can?

Leo posted this on his TWiT blog:

It’s not I who want to take a break. I’m here every week ready to record, edit, and post a show. I gladly put in more time on the show than all the other TWiTs put together, but if the other TWiTs decide not to show there’s not much I can do about it.

At this point I have a couple of choices. I could re-cast the show with people who will actually show up, but is it a TWiT without Patrick and John?

Or I could put TWiT to rest and come up with something to replace it. Neither choice is desirable, especially since we have a sponsor who is paying to be on this show in particular, but frankly it’s more than I can handle trying to keep this cast together.

As I said, I’m going to defer a decision until I come back fromt the cruise.

It sounds like the panelists just can't make the time to do TWiT anymore and Leo is getting frustrated.

It would be a shame to see the show that dominated the early days of the iTunes podcast listings go away. Many people were introduced to podcasting because of TWiT.

I don't know about the rest of you but... I learned a lot from TWiT.

1) Digg - I learned about Digg from TWiT.
2) dl.tv - I learned about dl.tv from TWiT.
3) Dvorak - I forgot about him until he appeared on TWiT.
