So during last Friday’s show we covered a ton of iPhone apps that let you do augmented reality. Andy and I even got into a discussion on the social norms for using AR when talking face to face with someone. One of the apps we talked about was Yelp. I used to use Yelp, but had stopped after… for no apparent reason. Well now I have a reason to use it again. Check out this screenshot from my iPhone…

Yelp on iPhone

I was at Quizno’s near the house the other day, and this was simply way cool.

We would tell you where Michael M was this week, but given the tags this week on the lack of privacy in social media, we are sure you can find out yourself! We wonder whatever happened to Sony’s Playstation Home. We take some time and review the privacy settings of Facebook and other social media networks. And finally: has augmented reality finally gone mainstream with the iPhone? All this, and more of your tags, this week on Dogear-Nation.
