James Cogan and I finally got together to push out another episode of TechCanuck. This one is probably the best episode we have done to date as we are really finding our stride when it comes to talking about tech.
Talking Points
a) Google has been busy. Buying DoubleClick, and confirming rumours that an upcoming web-based PowerPoint-like app is on the way. We go slightly off-topic and also discuss Bill Gates and Microsoft.
b) TV advertisers are starting to hold back for internet deals.
c) Rumours of an eBay acquisition of StumbleUpon is interesting, and has also nudged Google into adding a ‘discovery’ feature to their toolbar. Toolbars are hot? Really?
d) MySpace releases its take on social news. Our first impressions.
e) David has great things to say about the Feisty Fawn release from Ubuntu.
f) David and James quickly discuss two ‘web stars du jour’; Joost and Twitter.
g) Closing thoughts.
Check out Episode 10.
