Imagine these lines sliding into a conversation when you have friends over:
YOU: Well, that was a nice evening, I really had a good time, we should do this more often.
BEFRIENDED COUPLE: Yes, it was great, we should do it again next time, perhaps at our place.
YOU: Sounds like a great idea.
BEFRIENDED COUPLE: And while you [...]

I am not sure if this is a claim to fame or not. It at least makes us infamous, maybe. We are not that ominous I don’t think. We will have to work on our image… This tool will test your URL against the “Great Firewall of China” to see if it has been blocked. [...]

This application seems strange in so much as it is a screensaver that you won’t want to walk away from. It displays global blogging activity in real time. It looks bloody marvellous!
I have only had time to have a look at the YouTube Video of this one, but I love the concept. From Prime Labs, [...]

As we have said on the show, we use Blue Dot extensively to prepare the links that we use and share for the show. We have encouraged our listeners to use del.icio.us to tag websites as suggestions for the show or maybe just to draw something to our attention. Everyone has really taken to this [...]

This week we have a great show which is packed full and over flowing. Yes we went over… again. But you guys have said… Let it go, so we did. But what you get is some interesting Technology News. Some Applications that will power up your system, especially if you own a Mac. Sites and [...]
