You know that I'm always experimenting with the latest web tech that I can get my hands on. I aspire to apply my creativity using the best tools I have to produce something cool and unique.

For a few years, I've been a podcast subscriber on and off to mainly tech podcasts that provide me valuable information, also including the non tech podcast No Agenda from Adam "the Podfather" Curry. With great respect for the effort and humility of podcasters, I adore to do more than subscribe, but to also share my voice and opinion.

Like all of my experiments, I don't know where this will end up, but I'm excited for the journey and I welcome you to follow along.

Luckily, I've found a co-host willing to take a chance with me, sharing our opinions on the latest news in startup culture. My friend Amul Patel, is a natural compliment to have a candid conversation about all aspects of internet life, including design, marketing & business plans, for the latest websites and mobile apps. His background is in marketing and design, while mine is in web & app dev, we overlap with our passion for clean, usable consumer products, and heart for entrepreneurship.

For the time being we are using youtube to host our video podcast because it's so easy to use, but will eventually offer an itunes podcast. You can subscribe to our channel here http://www.youtube.com/user/smokinghotcoffee .

So far we've produced 6 "cups" of smoking hot coffee for your viewing pleasure. We hope that you enjoy our video podcast that tours and discusses the user interface and design aesthetics of the web. In each show we review a handful of startups bookmarked by ourselves and users on SmokingHotCoffee.com .

After one week, we've got our feet wet, and are now looking for your feedback and input. We want to know what you'd like to see on the show, what parts you like about it, and don't. I'm also looking forward to improving the website, allowing you to track, follow, rate, comment on hot startups and more.

This is a great start to 2013 as I'm crossing an item off my list. I'm looking forward to continuing this project as a natural expression of my passion for web & startups. So far it's helped me overcome my challenge of publishing regularly. Wish me luck!
