| Ep # | Title | Original Airdate | Link | MP3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1138 | Good luck with that, Bono | Monday, January 4, 2010 | [1] | [2] |
| So, Bono has been listening to his manager and soaking up the idea that the Internet needs to be locked down before it ruins the video industry. This selfless act of Cassandra-like prophesying involves talking about how great the U.S. is at stopping child porn and how great the Chinese are at stopping anything they don't like. We point out a few holes in the theory there. Also, Google is doing everything. Seriously, if you even think fleetingly that Google might do something, well, apparently it already is. | ||||
| 1139 | Live from CES 2010 | Wednesday, January 6, 2010 | [3] | [4] |
| You'll know we're recording this episode from the stage before the show has actually begun because of the loud machinery crunching away in the background as vendors ready their booths. In the meantime, we cover Google's official introduction of the Nexus One, a 3D network arriving on your TV, and Microsoft's tablet computer. You heard me right: Microsoft. | ||||
| 1140 | Live from CES 2010 (Day 2) | Thursday, January 7, 2010 | [5] | [6] |
| Though the conference opens for the public today, this is our second live show from CES 2010. Leo Laporte joins us on stage to discuss the impressive penetration of 3D at this year's show, Skype on your television, and the soon-to-be growing catalog of Netflix streaming titles. | ||||
| 1141 | Good news for high-tech mouth breathers | Friday, January 8, 2010 | [7] | [8] |
| A new technology from Zyxio allows you to control your PC by breathing. Obviously this is good for accessibility, but it could also mean good and bad news for gamers. We'll discuss. We also rundown the latest news from CES, including the Intel keynote. And we talk with the winner of the Apps for Innovation contest about his Web site that makes it easy for you to find out what the government is about to do to you and gives you a chance to make a comment. | ||||
| 1142 | Buzz Crew's Best of CES picks | Saturday, January 9, 2010 | [9] | [10] |
| We discuss the winners of this year's Best of CES awards, and make our very own picks as well. But the most important news of the day has to be the whole Facebook bra color meme. What... Is it something I said? | ||||
| 1143 | Google is sorry... you feel that way? | Tuesday, January 12, 2010 | [11] | [12] |
| Google apologized to China for miscommunication over their scanning of books. But that didn't stop them from scanning the books. Or even get them to apologize for scanning the books. Also Microsoft Word is no longer sold, at least for a brief period of time. And the Apple rumors are ramping up. | ||||
| 1144 | What's Google really doing in China? | Wednesday, January 13, 2010 | [13] | [14] |
| Due to some Gmail attacks, Google has said it will remove its filters and possibly pull out of China altogether. There's definitely a lot more going on behind the scenes of this than we know, but we try to get to the heart of the matter as the nation of China negotiates with the nation of Google. We also discuss Facebook's requirement that you scan your hard drive to reactivate a hacked account, and we look forward to Martians coming this year. Yay for Martians! | ||||
| 1145 | China to Google: Suck it | Thursday, January 14, 2010 | [15] | [16] |
| The Google-China drama continues as China makes a veiled response that only law-abiding companies are welcome in the People's Republic. More information came out indicating the Gmail hacking was done by the government in China. This isn't over folks. We'll keep on it. But there is other news. Apple lawyers strike back over tablet rumors, and app stores are all pretty much the same. | ||||
| 1146 | Fighting firewalls with firewall | Friday, January 15, 2010 | [17] | [18] |
| The Google China drama continues with some startling revelations about an Internet Explorer 6 vulnerability. And Tim from Kansas has an intriguing suggestion for how Google could reverse the Chinese firewall to get back at them. We also witness the dominance of the Nintendo Wii and the cheapening of some of Verizon's plans. | ||||
| 1147 | Mint Fried Quicken (sarcmark!) | Tuesday, January 19, 2010 | [19] | [20] |
| While Apple has officially announced an announcement, we don't know what it is. So we speculate anyway. Sue us. Will you pay $2 for a new character that indicates sarcasm? Most of us won't, either. We also discuss the meaning of privacy in search engines and Quicken hides it's online service behind Mint, which oddly makes Natali hungry. | ||||
| 1148 | Verizon cuts off alleged illegal downloaders | Wednesday, January 20, 2010 | [21] | [22] |
| Breaking news during the show has Verizon admitting to cutting off the Internet access of people accused of illegal downloading. But hey, they don't throttle,they say. Great! Except for cutting off people is really an extreme from of throttling. And also, Verizon isn't getting proof for this, just accusations. The problems with this policy are immeasurable and we discuss them. Oh and Bing may oust Google on the iPhone. | ||||
| 1149 | Secretary of State Clinton plans to free the Internet | Thursday, January 21, 2010 | [23] | [24] |
| We had the pleasure of chatting with Jared Cohen, Senior Adviser to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton today. He gave us some more insight into Secretary Clinton's speech about the freedom on the Internet, specifically relating to China. We also clarify that Verizon is not booting people off the Internet--but apparently Cox is. So take all that stuff we wrote yesterday about Verizon and just put Cox in there. | ||||
| 1150 | Up the creek without a Bible | Friday, January 22, 2010 | [25] | [26] |
| The FCC is coming for the schools and churches just like that crazy guy on the corner told you! June 12th they'll require anybody using a wireless microphone that operators in the 700 MHZ spectrum, to stop using that mic. That's right. the purge is coming! For microphones!. Actually it'll affect Broadway shows too. Will the FCC be able to round up the ne'er-do-wells? Will Google ruin US-China relations? Well that's another story. Literally. | ||||
| 1151 | NASA, park the shuttle on blocks | Monday, January 25, 2010 | [27] | [28] |
| Amid the news of China picking a fight with the U.S. over Google, and Jammie Thomas-Rasset getting her fine reduced, we've got a goldmine idea for NASA. Gene wrote in to explain that instead of selling off the shuttles, NASA can just leave them parked at the space station. And we took it further with some suggestions of how and where to park them and what to do with them afterward. | ||||
| 1152 | Hacks on a plane | Tuesday, January 26, 2010 | [29] | [30] |
| The FAA has asked Boeing to prove that its new connected airplane isn't so connected it can connect hackers. We also discuss why folks think women aren't as good at math when all the women we know are great at math. And we hash over some Apple tablet rumors. I mean, how could we not? We also have special guest host Clayton Morris from Fox News, and Ryan Shrout from PC Perspective. | ||||
| 1153 | iPad? Yes. Apple named it iPad. | Wednesday, January 27, 2010 | [31] | [32] |
| We recorded right after Steve Jobs finished his 90-minute announcement of the Apple iPad, Apple's new tablet computer. It's variably impressive depending on who you are, but will anyone buy it? We discuss. Also, it's over for the Mars rover Spirit. At least the roving part is over, but it's still alive and doing science. | ||||
| 1154 | How much is that Moon trip in Microsoft points? | Thursday, January 28, 2010 | [33] | [34] |
| Yes of course we rehash the Apple iPad. We find out how to pronounce it properly in Boston. And we determine that it is the fundamental problem with democracy. But there is other news, including a class-action suit against Microsoft over its points system on Xbox and Zune. And President Obama wants to kill the moon program for now. | ||||
| 1155 | Fujitsu threatens to sue over stupid iPad name | Friday, January 29, 2010 | [35] | [36] |
| While every woman on Earth universally thinks the name iPad is stupid, Fujitsu still wants to own it. We'll tell you about the Fujitsu iPad which has existed since 2002 and why Apple thinks they can still own the name anyway. We also look at the MSI tablet which may be much better than iPad. But will you buy it? And we hear from a man who is drunk and frozen in Maine. | ||||
