Dogear Nation » Podcast

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!

This week is a very special episode (kinda like an after school special for those of you who remember those). We have the emerging technology class from Villanova University as guests and talk about some of their tags. Michael and Michael try to keep this Wildcats under control, while Andy is tucked away in his bed, dreaming of sugar plums. Frequent guest Sandy Kearney is stuck in the room with our guests, and together we all have a great time.
