Once each year, we serve up some moments that were edited out of podcasts. In most companies, when the boss is away, the staff will play! However, at Serotek, when Mikey joins us, things get a little crazier!
As always, comments in SeroTalk podcasts are those of the individuals, and do not represent Serotek Corporation, its staff, management, board of Directors, or third party resellers. some may find the language and comments in these outtakes to be offensive. Please except them in the light-hearted manner in which they are intended.
We Hope you will find these comments amusing at our expense.
Listen to 7 Minutes of Outtakes While Recording 2010 Podcasts.
2010 was a great year for SeroTalk podcasts and Tech Chats. To celebrate our success, and as a way of saying thanks, we held a contest where we asked our listeners to send in their favorite moments of the past year. The entries are in and we have drawn the names of our Serotek Gift Card winners. We would like to congratulate Dan Kerstetter, winner of the $50 Serotek Gift Card, good for Serotek software and voices. Jes Smith and Estin Talavera are both our winners of a $25 Serotek Gift Card. We thank everyone who entered and we appreciated all the great feedback on the year that was 2010.
Remember, even though the holidays are over, you can still give the gift of accessibility all year long.
Have a great 2011,
the Serotek Team!
