Before we kick off another busy week, we wanted to give an update on the progress of The BPP.

Video Fun
First, we want to take note of one of our first true video features about personal space in virtual reality. Producer Win Rosenfeld ventured into the world of Second Life. We want to know what you think about the piece. And did you think our conversation with Win about the video hit the right note? The idea is that conversations on the radio can be continued online through video and the comments section of the site. And vice versa. We're experimenting.
Let us know.

Best Song in The World
Also last week, I debuted "The Best Song In The World Today." I probably should have made the point in the post that this is something we hope is going to be a regular feature. Every once in a while we post a song that we call "The Best Song In The World Today" We want to use this feature as a way to debut new music. And you can totally disagree with us about the song. Tell us we're wrong and tell us why. We also want you guys to tell us what you're listening to and to nominate songs for "Best Song In The World."

This Is a News Show, Right?
We had a bit of a kerfuffle with a reader of the blog about the direction of our news coverage, which is pretty much non-existent right now. (We know! We know!) This is going to be a news show, so we should probably start doing some of it — and a toute de suite. And we will, we promise — just as soon as we get a staff a little bigger than me and Luke and Alison — and technically Alison hasn't started. So, really, it's just me and Luke and a couple of paper clips.

Over the next couple of weeks we're going to be ramping up our news coverage. And if there are stories out there that you think we should be doing, drop us a line. Otherwise, stay tuned, there's more to come soon.
