The TechTalk show where I blather briefly about mobile devices

العربية: Android logo
On my latest TechTalk radio appearance, I discuss some rather banal issues with mobile device usage among the elderly before dropping a question about Einstein's most famous (and famously misunderstood) equation. Luckily Paul Ulreich from Verizon is there to clean up my mess -- at least on the phone front.

If you're curious about age-based accessibility for mobile phones, this is actually a very fine episode to give listen -- so long as you mute the parts where I'm talking. You know, the usual.

The TechTalk episode where I talk about the secret history of Steve Ballmer

Microsoft CEO, Steve Ballmer, presents his pre...
In this TechTalk radio episode, I reveal what dark history Steve Ballmer lived out between his days at Harvard and his illustrious run as a minion of Microsoft. Here's a hint: it involved a midwestern state, pastries and another legendary Fortune 100 CEO. No foolin'.

Mercifully, we spent much more of the episode discussing Oyster and its "Netflix for ebooks" pitch, as well as the future of the prose-for-pay industry. The parts when I'm not talking are definitely worth a listen.

I am returned to Techtalk Radio, discuss the end of the Space Shuttle program

English: Computer simulation of the heating of...
After weeks of missed connections and conflicts, I'm finally back to dragging down the quality of TechTalk Radio. This week, I throw out a quick missive on smartwatches, some trivia on the last cargo item the Space Shuttle placed into orbit, and lay down a challenge about the secret history of Steve Ballmer.

More importantly, Mike and Dave go deep on Google Maps tech with Daniel Seiberg. You can fast-forward past my drivel to the good stuff, no worries.
