Mythosa and TableSmith mentioned on Dragon's Landing podcast

Episode 7 of the Dragon's Landing podcast featured some very nice coverage of both my Mythosa website and TableSmith. I think the hosts may have confused TableSmith with the long-defunct "TableMaster" (as far as how long the application has been around), but that's a minor quibble.

I haven't listened to the earlier episodes yet but I will be; it sounds like a cool show. Of course, I'm a little late to the party when it comes to "podcasting", so this may be old news to some of you.
