Ask YC: Seeking some language enthusiasts for a new podcast
I envision the interviews taking place over Skype, and lasting no more than an hour. We'll cover the basics about the history of the language, what it does well, and what it doesn't do quite so well. We'll then go into a more personal look as how the language has helped you in your current projects.
I'm really open to languages: Python, Ruby, Lisp flavors, Objective-C, C#, F#, Haskell, Erlang, etc. If you have used it for a project in the past year or two, and thought it was great, let's share it with this podcast.
If you're interested in being one of the first people I interview for the show, please email me at jon@ (my username) .com. Include what language(s) you would like to talk about, and what projects you've worked on using the language.
Future episodes will focus more on the use cases of a language, and try to showcase a new idea from the language or a library that hasn't been previously covered.
Additionally, since this is an Ask thread, if you have any suggestions or ideas please let me know. :)
