TWiT 222: 3 Dollah Coffee Pot

by Jon Cole in Tech808 days ago

This Week in Tech is down to a barebones cast, but that doesn’t mean there’s any shortage of news.  The first point of discussion is the class-action lawsuit against Facebook and Zynga, due to their delivery of deceptive, scammy advertisement.  Advertising is an oft discussed issue on TWiT, so it shouldn’t be surprising that nobody has anything nice to say about Zynga. Both Leo and Becky are positive about the California ban on power-consumptive televisions, but John isn’t sold.  Despite his typical antagonism, he manages to uncover some...

TWiT 202: The Overeating iPhone

by Jonathan Downin in Tech949 days ago

With Leo out of the country in China, Dvorak gets hosting duties this week.  He does a great job at keeping the group lively.  Dvorak really is the only person on the level of Leo who can pull this off this well. The topics are a bit all-over on this one, but the CrunchPad gets some time right of the top.  This is a device that many would love to get their hands on and if the form-factor and engineering is up to snuff, it may just be a stealth hit. Bing is also catching some people off guard.  If you asked anyone in tech 6 months ago if Microsoft...

TWiT 195: A Series Of Tube Tops

by Jonathan Downin in Tech998 days ago

Another great episode of TWiT this week.  It’s nice that Leo mixes up the group a lot and having Dvorak on the show is always a good thing. If you haven’t heard about Wolfram Alpha yet Leo and the group talk about it this week.  As they iterate time and time again, it is not a search engine.  It’s purpose is to be able to provide statistical data for anything you are looking for.  It is a first of its kind and while it isn’t quite there yet, it is a pretty amazing service in theory.  GO check it out and you may be surprised...

TWiT 188: Judge Mental

by Jonathan Downin in Tech1048 days ago

There is the requisite Twitter talk up-front here.  Has Twitter jumped the shark?  The noise to real information ratio is pretty high and is just getting worse as its popularity grows. There are so many topics in this one.  This is a three person affair, and with Leo and John drinking it feels like friends talking tech at a pub.  It’s actually a nice change of pace to the normal TWiT. Leo is pretty excited about OnLive.  He makes a great point when he says he doesn’t think this is aimed at the hardcore.  The people who want to...
