Any chance these podcasts are transcribed somewhere?

Looks like it isn't online for this episode yet, but usually Chris has full transcripts on the 100kfreelancing.com website. It'll probably appear here when it's ready:

Thanks, I was just coming in here to post this!

Sometimes it takes me a day or two to get the transcripts up. I don't have them for every episode yet, as I just introduced the feature 3 or 4 episodes ago, but I'll have one up for this episode soon.

SyneRyder answered for me, so I'll just say "thanks for asking"! Sometimes I wonder if anyone is actually reading those things, and now I know.

I'm not a deaf programmer, but I know a surprising number of them! It's a pretty solid career choice for deaf people, considering 98% of the job is doable without being able to hear anything. Thanks for doing transcripts :)

You know, I'm so dense sometimes. When I started doing transcripts, I was thinking "SEO", not "deaf people". Duh!

Never thought of it that way before. I bet it makes open-plan offices tolerable, too. Hmm.
