I recorded the last Daily SearchCast of the year last week. You can get it here -- it's an hour-and-a-half long. After doing that show, I also decided it was time to hang it up on the show.

I've been doing the show for over three years now, and I've really enjoyed my time with it plus the many positive responses I've gotten back from listeners. And I feel like I'm letting a number of you who listen in the car or at the gym or other places down on getting your dose of search news in audio format.

Unfortunately, I just don't have as much time as I used to. I'd hoped that going to a weekly format temporarily might help. It did a bit, but I'm still short of time. Plus with trips or meetings coming up, I've found that "Weekly Daily SearchCast" was rapidly becoming the "Monthly Weekly Daily SearchCast."

If I'm going to do something, I want to do it as best I can -- and I don't feel I'm doing it with the show. So, that's it. Never say never, of course. There's a chance I might dig deep in the future and try doing some video updates, with audio for download. I'll leave the feed going, just in case. But I don't have any immediate plans to do so.

I'd like to thank all the great folks at WebmasterRadio.FM for their support and help in making the show a success over the years. And, of course, thanks to all my listeners.
