The Yahoo Knight Rises

Episode 43! We start off talking about the NFL getting iPads & cloud data transfers and HP offering “The Cloud Thing”. Then we chat about Yahoo’s new CEO: Marrisa Mayer, how Microsoft squandered their $6.3 billion purchase of aQuantive, a chart that further points to an impending Mini-iPad, the formula for start-up messages after being bought by Facebook/Google, and the iOS/OSX in-app purchase hack (hint: don’t do it).

An Exercise In Freedom

For this July 4th weekend we opened up the 41st podcast to let anyone join who wanted to, and then proceeded to experience massive technical difficulties. We had Yancy Eaton (@yancyeaton) join, and David Villani attempt multiple times.

It was a fun discussion which hit on the Nexus 7 killing all other Androids, the Weather Channel consuming Weather Underground, 7″ iPad rumors, the Higgs Boson “God Particle” discovery, Bizodo’s stupid/brilliant business, the size of Reddit, and finally a rousing discussion about Sony and their purchase of Gaikai.
