Ep. 233 – VaporStream and IT Harvest
TOPIC: Bike accidents and lack of sleep don’t keep Mike and Dave from providing you a great show! Of course, our awesome guests – VaporStream President and CEO Jack Hembrough and IT Harvest industry analyst Richard Stiennon (and author of the book “Surviving Cyberwar”) – certainly don’t hurt as they inform us on ways to secure our communication and keep from having our own personal version of “Wiener-gate.” Though, if you do, you’ll automatically be entered into the Blundies, so you’d have that to look forward to!
Jay Garmon provides a fun discussion and this question:
What part of Spaceship 1 actually left orbit, and how did it get there?
We do get a couple coolsites in there too, with these:
- Join.me – About the easiest screensharing service we’ve seen, from LogMeIn!
- XNConvert – Converts any to any graphics, plus lets you resize and more!
Podcast only song of the week is the brand new “Sad Song” by The Cars.
