Scooped by Pirillo

Mike Chandler — Tue, 17 Apr 2007 15:37:16 +0000

My interview got scooped yesterday afternoon. I was pleased when Kevin Cupp agreed to speak to me via Skype. But then, Chris Pirillo announced he was doing a live video interview a couple hours before me. I tried to clog his internet tubes to prevent this from happening, but he prevailed.

And he probably recorded the audio successfully… unlike me (insert sorrowful, pathetic tear down the cheek here). Damn that Lockergnome!
