The crew (with Alex and Abdel returning as guests) discuss Google Glass, follow up on journalism and talk WWDC 2013.
This week Michael and Nate delve into the Boston tragedy – and specifically the media response (or fail, as we call it). Then we try to get into the upcoming Apple Q2 results, but get sidetracked talking about WWDC and to-be-created-devices.
This week Michael and Alex talk Facebook Home, the latest update to the Pebble smartwatch and Twitter Music, with plenty of amazing tangents along the way.
This week we discuss Squarespace 6 and both Harry and guest Alex Knight's departure from the service. Is it really so bad? Why is it so different from Squarespace 5? Listen as we discuss these questions, and more.
This week we [try to] talk about the unforced error that was Samsung's UNPACKED event, then we get into the Galaxy S4 and Android's future in general –with some iOS sprinkled in. We stay on the topic of Google and chat about the end of Reader's reign and what can take its place.
This week, we cover Google Glass and its potential creep factor, Mailbox’s queue system and App.net’s free tier, along with a somewhat creepy shout out to @stevestreza that is also a Family Guy reference.
It's the iBand-not-a-watch-thingy show! Michael and Steve want to see a wrist-based device from Apple. Nate sort of doesn't. FIGHT! Then we get into some nebulous stuff on iOS 7, 10.9, iCloud, Maps, the iWork inspector and chat about Bungie's new upcoming game, Destiny.
This week Michael and Nate tackle RI... BlackBerry and their new offerings as well as Netflix and Sony's recent announcements.
Join us for another episode as we discuss Apple’s impending doom, the secret of the Apple TV, Vine and Blackberry 10; plus some fun rambling on the future of the Mac Pro.
This week we pay tribute to Aaron Swartz, talk about Kimdotcom's new venture and finish up with some conjecture on skeuomorphism – along with random iOS game talk.
Abdel Ibrahim joins Michael for a look back at the ridiculousness, terror and potential promise of CES 2013.
We're back! This week we talk about the new craze of switching from an iPhone to a Nexus 4. We also talk a little shop about iOS in general, and what needs to change in iOS 7. We also bid farewell to Adam, and say hello to Harry and Steve!
This week: Maps, subsidies and iPads are on the table, as well as the run time of The Hobbit (~2:45 if you're curious).
