The Michael’s are face to face for a live show at BeanTraders, while Andy is traveling this week. We try a bit of Mana to help get us fully charged for the show, but the results are not what you expect. We decide not to dig into this week’s E3 conference, until we are at full strength, so drop us your tags about what games are on your wish list.

In this week’s exciting episode, Andy and the Michael’s are thinking like crazy. Thinking about your tags that is! We get a lesson on how to create your own Augmented Reality program on the Mac, we watch a “scientist” tell us how to get infected by a computer virus, and our driving around town session allows is all about networks and iPads. And if you ever wanted to know the secret behind each show’s thought process, Michael M has provided this mind map.

So sit back, relax, and enjoy the show!

Michael R – It’s not just fast, it’s chrome fast

Michael, Michael, and Andy get some time to talk to Keith Klemba and Wesley Mukai from SAP. Keith and Wes have been working on integrating Avatars into SAP’s technology. They have just unveiled the concept at this year’s Sapphire conference. Imagine the 3-D internet coming to a purchase order near you. We also have a great set of listener tags, and during the show we realize that it is the 30th anniversary of two things which have shaped our lives – PacMan and The Empire Strikes Back! So sit back, plug in, and enjoy our show!

As we begin a new year we’ve got no time for any look back (this week), way too many great tags from you our listeners. Also, Andy continues his holiday and will be joining us again next week. Next week we will talk about the tags that have stuck with us the most from 2009. But with CES going on we look at some cool new tech. Michael and Michael talk about Generation M’s impact on the enterprise (thanks to a great tag by billsweeney1 and rodent). We look at the best business model yet, and deal with the twitter nay-sayers. And thanks to ePredator we have to ask, has this augmented reality thing gone too far? Happy New Year!!!
