Interview 1: EasyEthical

Wednesday, November 12th, 2008

In order to give a bit of background to the various projects that are looking at how to provide ethical information to consumers, I though it would be good to do a series of interviews and release them as podcasts and online videos.  I don’t know about you, but I spend almost all my days reading and writing, so I always appreciate when I can get a break from that.  Plus I think seeing an interview can communicate a lot more, including styles and personalities, which can help in future collaboration.

The first interview is, naturally, talking with Annesley about our own project, EasyEthical.  I also mention the CarrotMobs that we’ve organised.  It was recorded in a noisy cafe with my digital camera but hopefully the audio is clear enough for you to decipher our ramblings.  The video was shot using Annesley’s Microsoft webcam on his Windows laptop, which probably explains why it randomly stopped recording for about a minute ;)

Video version is below (feel free to embed elsewhere / re-distribute).  Alternatively you can download the mp3 audio version for your portable listening pleasure.  Even better, subscribe to the podcast feed and you’ll get each interview as soon as it is published.
