Dogear Nation » Podcast

After some major user issues with talkshoe Michael, Michael, and Andy do our much hyped Windows 7 launch party. We thank the team over at BeanTraders coffee shop for allowing us to record the show with a live group of listeners. Even though this was our Windows 7 party show, our great listener tags gave us some great 3D internet and Tech-no-tronic topics. Keep on tagging!

Andy joins us remotely -

This special live recording was made on June 29th, as part of a IBM Innovator’s club meeting. We gave the team a special behind the scenes look at how we started Dogear-Nation, how it has evolved, and how we record a show. As part of that meeting, we did an abbreviated version of the show (really only 15 minutes shorter than our target show length). We want to make a special shout out to all those who tagged links for this special show with the tag “innovators-club”.
