Ep. 151 – Bing, Palm is done!
TOPIC: Gosh, we have fun today! After working over Microsoft’s new search engine Bing, we talk about the Microsoft Office Live ice age that is coming and then break down the newest Palm release (the Pre), and talk about what Apple could possibly do at WWDC to keep our interest (other than announcing he’s back to take the helm, that is).
Of course we’ve got our coolsites of the week, such as:
- Gminder – Desktop reminder for Google Calendar, by reflective code, this will make SURE you never forget those important calendar items; even if your browser is down and email turned off!
- GReader Gadget – Pops your google reader RSS subscriptions right onto the google desktop bar! You can view by category, starred, shared – most of the options you have on the regular greader site.
As the podcast only song of the week (which winds up being a radio play too) is “What Else is There?” by Röyksopp.
