TWiT founding member Kevin Rose joins this week’s episode to give some exclusive coverage about Digg 4 and its new social-friendly features. It seems like they main thrust of the update is making news feeds relevant to you and the people who follow you, with later pushes for lending “tastemakers” credibility to help build the quality of the whole network.
Due to Facebook’s decline in popularity in the tech world, just the tiniest spark of news about a Google-powered competitor has set the scene ablaze. Google Me was initially outed by Kevin and clearly interests Leo, though Owen makes the great point that Google hasn’t made a habit of making their products appeal to the general public that might be currently using Facebook.
Unsurprisingly, TWiT devotes a bit of time to the release of the iPhone 4. However, much of their talk is about the ridiculous antenna problems that could be easily solved with a cheap bumper. Leo does flip back to the positive side with his praise of the camera, which he believes blows the Flip HD Camera out of the water.
