Why has the podcast (sorry. Free download) taken longer to appear online the past couple of weeks Aled?

Simlpy Ant's workload - he's been working on a few different docs for Radio 1. We should be back to normal now though.

Hi Aled, this isn't a question, more of a suggestion for Chris. Just a minute ago Chris was talking about how he's having some trouble cross-posting things across multiple services like Twitter, Facebook and YouTube. Well, he could use something like Posterous. Posterous will let you post across multiple services a little more easily, and they'll let you email stuff to post as well. He might find it useful.

It's actually the problem of getting Twitter to post automatically to a page rather than a profile that's the problem. None of those services seem to do that!

Aled, what were you thinking posting this?!

I've added a lot of you into a special cm.net circle on my Google+ account- we should do one of those hangouts!

But I don't think he keeps any record of his choices - in fact I think I'm the only one keeping a record! I'd be interested to know if I'm wrong, tho.

Chloe keeps a record

So does she point out when he repeats tracks so often?

She's the Tina Daheley of chrismoyles.net

In theory G+ is better than facebook...but as none of my non geeky friends want to transfer across...its going to fail!

Send me the answer to question 1!

I don't think there's room for anymore social networking sites. Why would you want to write what's on your mind on 3 different sites at the same time? Facebook and Twitter will suffice.

Chris gets 8 weeks a year. 2 weeks in March (after the marathon show), he then waited 5 months to take the next 2 weeks off (in Aug), he has the last 2 weeks over Christmas so we had to fit a quick 2 weeks in the middle so Chris went for October.

Could you please ask Chris very nicely to space out his holidays more evenly in future, so that his faithful listeners don't have to do without the show twice in such a short space of time. He should know what 'a hardship for the nation' his absence causes.

I would be more interested in Google + if I hadn't signed up with my real DOB on my Google account - since I'm under 18 I can't use it yet. A CM.net hangout would be great though.

Aled,

What are the signs you look out for first thing in the morning to tell whether Chris is in an especially good/bad mood?

They said that about Facebook before Twitter came along; why post in 2 when 1 will suffice...

lol, I know how the show's going to go from the initial 'Hello' when he answers the phone first thing

The whole team as far I gather. We've all got our separate projects we're working on.

Freya's around because she's getting married while we're away so is off on her honeymoon on our return.

If there's no tour, is there anything you can tell us about what's coming up before Xmas?

Also, please get the 4 XF judges on, would be great, I'd like to hear if Kelly 'gets' the show!

One of the fan ideas is being rolled out the first week we're back - or at least it was before it got blocked by a member of management today! I'm sure we'll be back on track and announcing it on Thursday.

We also have a new Disastermind / Face Your Fears game coming (good luck with that one forum members)

Roy Walker. That's all I'm saying.

An Access All Areas event coming up

And two OBs - one in the North and one in the South.

We're working on getting all four X Factor judges on together as well as all four Strictly judges together. These may or may not happen.
