Why Doesn’t Mark Listen To Us?

Episode 45 is a great one this week! The Daily lays off 70 people, Windows 8 Metro kinda gets a new name, NBC sets a new Olympic streaming record. We also talk about making apps irreducible, how Facebook can make more money, Facebook’s bot problem, iPhone secrets, and the future of social gaming. We also mention Twitter’s new $ tag, using a 3D printer to make a gun, the new new Digg, the Protean Echo Ubercard, Wahooly’s new CapLinked partnership, and the curious Mars Landing.
