Editor-in-Chief David Gewirtz reports he survived his interview on Las Vegas’ KOMP 92.3. Here’s his report: It was, um, interesting. Imagine being interviewed by three wanna-be Howard Sterns: Flippy, Dippy, and Skippy (not their real names). This show was kinda shock-jock for the Dodge Durango-driving, gun-rack-in-the-rear-window set.

Fortunately, after agreeing to do the show (what was billed to me as a “Drive-time report on technology and gadgets”), I found their Web site and was reasonably well prepared for a rough ride. It turned out to go pretty well. I kind of held my own (amid cries of “geek” in the broadcast booth, but hey, I’m an uber-geek, not use denyin’ it).

We did learn a few new things: alternate names for the magazine (and alternate uses for the name), and they discovered a new use for the brand-new Palm m130 color handheld: apparently Al or Craig (they sort of all blurred together into a miasma of mouth) decided that the device would be ideal for storing and toting all the porn he downloaded from the Internet. When he found out he could store his dirty pictures on the SD card, he was in seventh heaven. All in all, though, it was good, unclean fun. Not my usual venue, but hey, it pays to stretch the comfort zone.
