Amtrekker
Hey Team,
I’m an unemployed vagrant. All I have is a backpack full of technology, a shoestring budget and a very important list. When everything is crossed off my list I get to go home! Let me know if you want to trade one of those shoestrings for help. brett@amtrekker.com

Hashing: Hey Team, I’m not even sure where to start today. I had such an awesome experience last night but I don’t think it’s going to be easy to describe. You guys might need to do a little research on your own. Here goes nothing (maybe literally): I was wandering the worldwide webs two days ago when I […]    read more
News to Me Inteview [podcast]: Hey Team, This is a fairly short one considering all the footage I had. I didn’t want to steal too much of News to Me’s thunder so I just took a few clips from yesterday. Check it out. Also this is the first week of a new type of “HD” encoding I’m trying out so let me […]    read more
News To Me: Hey Team, I had my interview with CNN’s News To Me today. It was a complete one-eighty from Fox Business News and a nice chance to answer some of those questions that keep popping up that I never fully acknowledge. It was pouring rain when I woke up and I was dreading even the short walk to […]    read more
What’s He Talking About?: Hey Team, I’m sure I had something to write about today but I’ve just been staring at the screen for the last five minutes trying to remember what it was. Let’s just assume it was the funniest, most exciting, eye-opening post I’ve ever written, pretend I actually wrote it and then move on. I’ve been insisting that […]    read more
Super-secret Secret Squirrel: Hey Team, I stayed at a new place in Atlanta last night and you’ll never guess what I saw. Go ahead. Guess. WRONG! Oh man, that wasn’t even close! That was just embarrassing…and dumb. I’ll just tell you to save you any more embarrassment. I “played with” a pet flying squirrel! (And by “played with” of course I […]    read more
Awesome Delays: Hey Team, As per usual, that plan that I outlined the other day is nearly completely shot. I guess that’s what I get for trying something new. “Okay, universe. I understand. It’s not my place to make plans. It wont happen again. I promise.” But the good news is, those plans aren’t shot for any severely negative […]    read more
GSU Sampling: Hey Team, Yesterday morning when I pulled into Atlanta I found myself still having to finish a good portion of the podcast. Naturally I couldn’t work on it at the Greyhound station so I went for a walk to see if I could find a cozy office-of-the-day. (Preferably one with some hot tea. Turns out Atlanta […]    read more
Tubing down the Chattahoochee! [Podcast]: Hey Team, Here’s the podcast for #1! Tubing down the Chattahoochee! Watch it here or better yet head over to iTunes, subscribe, download and watch it whenever you want! Enjoy! Loading… If you missed any of the earlier videos you can grab most of those from iTunes too or you can follow this link to the Amtrekker channel […]    read more
Chatta…who what now?: Hey Team, The last couple days have been a whirlwind of southern hospitality, baseball and inner tubes. Since being in Georgia for the first time ever I’ve already had peach cobbler with dinner twice (both made with California peaches), seen a Braves game and tubed down the Chattahooche River (Yep! Number one is a goner!). An itinerary?! I […]    read more
