The Incoherent Podcast

Here is the tenth episode of The Incoherent Podcast, in which we planned to talk about Mobile World Congress (http://www.mobileworldcongress.com/) and the Apple Spring Forward event (http://www.apple.com/live/2015-mar-event/) and instead spent all of our time talking about Apple and the new Apple Watch.First we revisit the fancy Sony SD card (http://www.audiostream.com/content/sonys-expensive-audiophile-microsd-card) and discuss some feedback we got on our previous commentary in episode 8 Loopy Apple Car (http://incoherentpodcast.com/2015/02/26/episode-008-loopy-apple-car/).Then it's into the Apple pring Forward event, where we spend a little bit of time going over the Apple TV portion of the event (the HBO partnership is quite interesting) and then go into deeper depth on the newly announced MacBook (http://www.apple.com/macbook/).(http://incoherentpodcast.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/macbook_scale1.png)Mark waxes poetically on the lack of ports while Ben remains sceptical that he could ever use a computer with only one port. We both agree that the colour choices (particularly) the gold makes a lot of sense and go over some of the other new MacBook features.(http://incoherentpodcast.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/AppleWatchUber.jpg)Then we do a deep-dive into the Apple-Watch (https://www.apple.com/ca/watch/). We take a look at the features, the apps demoed, the battery life, the pricing, and try to figure out whether we are bullish or bearish on the the future of the Apple Watch.In the end we are pretty bullish on the Apple watch, although Ben decreases his first year predictions to 11 million in the first quarter and 22 million in the first year, and refuses to admit that he really wants to buy one. Mark sadly forgets to answer Ben’s question and his prediction of 10 million in the first quarter and 30 million in the first year still stands. He's also thinking of picking one up.If you are feeling bullish or bearish on the Apple Watch let us know in the comments below or on twitter: @IncoherentPod (https://twitter.com/IncoherentPod). If you think you know how many Apple Watches will be sold in the first year we'd love to hear that as well.(http://incoherentpodcast.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/AplWatchthree.png)Editor's Note: The Chromecast actually costs $39.00 CDN, making the Apple TV that much better of a deal in our ever so humble opinion.

Welcome to the much delayed WordPress episode, where we cover the best WordPress plugins and tips for what to do when starting your first WordPress blog. We tried to make this podcast into a little bit of an interview, so let us know if you enjoy that format.Note: This was originally slated to be the eight episode but due to an Audacity crash we had to postpone the episode while we recovered the recording. We had to tweak the playback speed so things might sound a little bit off. Also we switch to our backup recording near the end, which corresponds to when Audacity decided to up and quite.Here are a list of the plugins recommended by Ben in the episode:* 404 Redirected (https://wordpress.org/plugins/404-redirected/) * Akismet (https://wordpress.org/plugins/akismet/) * Broken Link Checker (https://wordpress.org/plugins/broken-link-checker/) * Disqus Comment System (https://wordpress.org/plugins/disqus-comment-system/) * Google Analytics by Yoast (https://wordpress.org/plugins/google-analytics-for-wordpress/)* Google XML Sitemaps (https://wordpress.org/plugins/google-sitemap-generator/) * Jetpack by WordPress.com (https://wordpress.org/plugins/jetpack/) * JM Twitter Cards (https://wordpress.org/plugins/jm-twitter-cards/) * Page Builder by SiteOrigin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/siteorigin-panels/) * UpdraftPlus - Backup/Restore (https://wordpress.org/plugins/updraftplus/) * W3 Total Cache (https://wordpress.org/plugins/w3-total-cache/) * WordPress SEO (https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-seo/) * WP Open Graph (https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-open-graph/)(http://incoherentpodcast.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/500px-WordPress_logo.svg_.png)

Ben and Mark are back in the studio after our special live episode. In this episode, Ben talks about his fun at Festival du Voyageur, IFTTT and HTTP2. Mark talks about Microsoft's relevancy and the mystery surrounding the Apple Car. Ben even starts a new segment "Is this an unnecessary tech?". So grab your tea and turn on your Pebble, because we are about to "deep dive" into some newsworthy important tech and fun! Greetings from Ben at Festival du Voyageur:(http://incoherentpodcast.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/10688216_855206974545269_4901355696062171770_o-300x150.jpg) Dali and Masterworks from Beaverbrook (http://wag.ca):(http://www.greynotgrey.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/salvador-dali2.jpg)Mark on Pubchat: Episode 83: He’Brew Bittersweet Lenny’s R.I.P.A (http://pubch.at/2015/02/12/episode-83-hebrew-bittersweet-lennys-r-i-p-a/).Nepal Organic Fair Trade Green Tea:(http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KW2v6k71Bhw/UYsEz8dspDI/AAAAAAAAAPs/xCh7KeY5J-Q/s1600/IMG_2069.JPG)IFTTT becomes IF and DO (http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/ifttt-launches-do-note-do-button-do-camera/)Microsoft: A Story of Relevance and Irrelevance (http://selsine.com/2015/02/22/microsoft-a-story-of-relevance-and-irrelevance/) By MarkMaterial updates to Google Docs (http://phandroid.com/2014/10/29/google-drive-docs-slides-and-sheets-all-updated-with-material-design/)Intellisense:(http://crm.vdsnickt.eu/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Intellisense-4.jpg) Google bringing card layouts to Chrome mobile (http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/02/21/google-testing-new-colorful-search-results-layout-mobile/)Google search results tagging mobile friendly pages (http://searchengineland.com/google-officially-launches-mobile-friendly-labels-mobile-search-results-208949):(http://searchengineland.com/figz/wp-content/seloads/2014/11/google-mobile-friendly-label.png) 500,000 downloads of Android Wear (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.wearable.app&hl=en)Pebble actionable notifications (http://help.getpebble.com/customer/portal/articles/1819783-android---actionable-notifications)HTTP2 (http://gizmodo.com/second-coming-the-first-http-update-in-16-years-http-1686479223)Apple Car:(http://www.darfuns.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/slide-to-unlock-car-door-iphone-joke-funny-picture.jpg)Revealed: The experts Apple hired to build an electric car (http://9to5mac.com/2015/02/19/apple-electric-car-team/)As mysterious minivan sightings proliferate, rumored 'Apple Car' seen as $50B US opportunity (http://appleinsider.com/articles/15/02/16/as-mysterious-minivan-sightings-proliferate-rumored-apple-car-seen-as-50b-us-opportunity) Samsung buys Apple Pay competitor LoopPay, Loopy (http://mashable.com/2015/02/18/samsung-buys-looppay/):(http://rack.1.mshcdn.com/media/ZgkyMDE1LzAyLzE4LzA5L1NjcmVlblNob3QyLjE4ODk0LnBuZwpwCXRodW1iCTEyMDB4OTYwMD4/d1b89c9c/899/Screen-Shot-2015-02-18-at-1.28.39-PM-640x286.png) Samsung Galaxy S6 tipped to ship with Microsoft apps (http://www.slashgear.com/samsung-galaxy-s6-tipped-to-ship-with-microsoft-apps-14369135/)Alibaba and Aladdin's flying drones: (http://techcrunch.com/2015/02/04/alibaba-drones/)(http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/scale_large/8/83918/2177022-alibab001.jpg)Segment: Is this an unnecessary tech?

We are officially a weekly podcast! We go live on location to the downtown streets of Winnipeg to record a hard-hitting show from our headquarters at Parlour Coffee! Ben talks about drones in the form of the Millennium Falcon and a cat, as well as Mozilla helping out the TOR Project. Mark talks about Apple's record breaking fourth quarter, Samsung's future plans, and the weirdness that is Microsoft.

CES 2015 is over and done, so we talk about all the highlights, new products, awesome news, and more that we learned from the huge electronics event. Mark gets excited all over again about bandaids.

Welcome to episode 4 of The Incoherent Podcast, in which our heroes make a triumphant return, this time with a brand new Microphone and a new recording studio: Mark's living room. Prepare to be dazzled by more Mobile statistics, thoughts on why folks spend more on iOS, what's happening in Winnipeg, and Timeline (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0300556/).Links:* IBM Digital Analytics Benchmark Reports - Black Friday Results 2014 (http://www-01.ibm.com/software/marketing-solutions/benchmark-reports/black-friday-2014.html) * How many people really care about Google Services?

It's our third episode and we finally find out what's inside Ben's mind when he imagines our podcasting studio. We also try out a couple new segments - one about famous tweets, and also some competitive tech predictions!
