All three of us watched the snoozefest so you wouldn’t have to.  You are probably still sleeping from it.  The big question is does Chaim by a 5k iMac?  

Next week we will be treated to another Apple announcement. We assume it is new iPads. Chaim thought we will spend the show discussing the minutia details of the ipad, but it turned into Chaim being told that nobody cares.

We have three hot topic items for you this week. First off we talk about Ello for longer than anyone thought. Who knew this social network will still get publicity for a week after launch. We move on to #bendgate where we agree it is overblown. We finish up with Windows 10

Amazon last week put out a whole slew of new kindles. Are they worth it? We discuss the need for so many different variations, as well as the need of a $200 eink version. Editor’s note: We apologize for this episode. Everything bad that could go wrong, went wrong.

We are recording the day iOS 8 came out. Since Paul and Justin downloaded the Gold Master, Chaim was stuck waiting for the download to happen. We discuss the major changes that will be useful.

We bring Kelly Guimont in to help us discuss app stores, and their success, but more problems. Should it be this difficult to find apps, or should the respective app stores do something about it?

Google just decided to remove the authored links and photos next to search results. That is the extend of my understanding. What I do know is that we have our resident SEO expert, Paul, and he is going to explain to us some of the dark magic of SEO.

With it being a slow few weeks, our only hope was to gather random little news stories, throw them at the wall and see what sticks… That is all.

While this topic has been covered, we have not covered it yet. We take our thirty minutes this week to talk about the EU law requiring search engines to remove search results in the “Right to Be Forgotten.”

Ingress for iOS just came out, and I wanted to offer a primer for those who may not understand. The game isn’t difficult, but overwhelming at first. I’ve recruited Darren Yung, to help discuss the game. The goal is to get you to understand the game in the thirty minutes we have. We tried to… Continue reading inThirty 150 – Ingress for iOS
