Dogear Nation » Podcast

This week, we continue to be at full strength, wondering how long that will last? We have a light selection of listener tags this week, but the ones we get are loads of fun, leaving us to wonder if we will all be playing games driven by social engineering. So listen in to this week’s show, and don’t forget to keep on tagging with “dogear-nation”.

Thanks to ePredator, Michael R. spends a significant amount of time talking about World of Warcraft, while Michael M. wants to play MMO’s by himself. Andy reiterates that Matt needs a Mac. We are all incredibly excited by LX5′s link on molecular printing — Here comes the Star Trek replicator — way cool! Andy reminds us, if you make a website, don’t loop your midi file… it’s really really annoying. We also have started a Dogear-Nation wave on google wave, so let us know if you have a Wave account and we’ll add you to this wave.
