The last AMW podcast, for the time being, is now live.

The Australian Macworld podcast is taking a break for a while, so this is the 21st and last episode of Series 2. This time around, Dave Bullard and David Braue reflect on 25 years of Macworld, Braue's departure from AMW, and loads of other stuff; Anthony Caruana and Adam Turner invite a special guest for last drinks; and we ask David Braue to sign us off with a (swan)song.

Thoughts, complaints, criticisms, constructive feedback, favourite bits, etc? Tell us all about it here.

And perhaps your thoughts on the series as a whole and whether or not you'd like to see the podcasts continue

I'll be the first to say it got off to a shaky start but once the format found its feet, it turned out to be a pretty good show.

I've spent the last week "tasting" some other podcasts and I think the AMW effort, by comparison to many, is now quite professional.

I trust you'll be back on the air before we know it.

Would like to see it continue. I think it's a unique format and professional production.

Tlcaus, I could be wrong, but this person could be a spam bot. I've seen messages like this on some other forums I'm a member of.

I reckon you're right, Htial, so I've deleted our friend from the Philippines.

Cheers

There's nothing wrong with a spam bot that praises our "continuation of the events" and is "happy about the news for today". I miss him/her/it already.

I've come across meaningless posts before and, like Dave, I remove them and the poster because it's always spam.

Well that one had me thrown, whether it was a spam bot, or somebody who simply posted the wrong comment in the wrong forum spot, hence why i let it roll.
