I know you had the episode with DT Pints a while back, but have you considered asking the likes of Nolan from Roll20 for an interview? I would suggest other VTTs, but seriously, are there any worth mentioning?? I've seen a few interviews with Nolan floating around, and if that's anything to go by, it seems like he'd probably be willing to go on the show. Edit: In looking up Nolan Jones' G+ page to link it for Stu, I noticed he has a standing offer to RPG podcasts to be interviewed. It'd be a great chance to ask one of the developers of Roll20 various questions that either the hosts or listeners have, about how to make best use of Roll20 in their campaigns, ask about anything that is misunderstood, or not understood, get info about upcoming features, ask advice for people who aren't confident using Roll20, etc. etc. Thoughts? Nolan's G+ page in case Stu wants to look him up: plus.google.com/110134693655067109786/posts

Great guy I really second this recommendation! Mayhaps they might even be a sponsor?
Along the lines of other VTTs Fantasy Grounds is having a online con where you can test out their software for free. I'm going to hopefully run two games...for Jackers. I really want to show this thing to the community is rather awesome. But unlike Roll20 it ain't free all the time...

Depending how you use roll20, it isn't free either. I filled my available space the first day and had to subscribe. Quality maps for multiple campaigns will trash the meager amount they offer.
If they would let me host my own images on my own web space, I would be so happy.

...but then you wouldn't need to pay them.

I'd gladly pay them way more for the ability to host my own images and organize them in a better way than tags. Folders for crying out loud.

I also like this idea; playing online has been huge since my friends and I have gotten older and busier. I would be interested on hearing where Nolan thinks online rpgs will go in the future.
