Facebook

Maybe I’m behind the times, but I just recently got onto Facebook.  Go ahead and look me up and add me as a friend.  I like it much more than  “My-spam”.

I received the following email today and thought it was worth sharing:

“Cell Phone Junkie

I just wanted to drop a quick note to let you all know what a great job you all have been doing with the podcast. I really enjoy listening every week and I’m learning some great stuff about the wireless industry.

Every time I listen to the show I can’t help but wonder, how many cell phone junkie listeners are out there? Do you all have any specific numbers on the size of this podcast community or downloads?

Keep up the good work!

Kyle, glad you enjoy the show, thanks for writing in  The answer to your question is, there are lots of other cell phone junkies out there!  There is tracking software that tells me how many people download the show, and we average somewhere around 1000 per show.  Sometimes we have more (we have multiple thousands before on shows that have popular guests on them) and of course sometimes (such as weeks with holidays) we have less.  The thing that I like though is that even though we are relatively small in comparison to many of the other podcasts out there, I love the interaction that I have with the listeners (like you) that email, call and generally take time to correspond.  It is great to know that there are people out there that not only like listening, but like phones enough to write in!

Over the past 2 years, I have been working on learning as much as I can in hopes of finding myself in an expanded role with additional responsibility. Well my hard work and patience have paid off and if all goes well in the next few days, I will find myself in that position next Monday! I’m very excited and can’t wait to get going with it!

UPDATE-I’m in!  I was contacted today by my new boss and I was offered this position.  Starting there Monday, can’t wait!
