Author: Michael Rowe - Categories: Podcast
Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

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.

Dogear-Nation – Episode 87 – Happy Birthday Opensim

Author: Michael Rowe - Categories: Podcast
Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Opensim turns two and our listeners give advice on getting your C.V. updated (resume for our US listeners). Andy also points out that all of your online content is your C.V. It’s amazing that the guys don’t catch the nuance that the visual C.V. ties directly to leakage of your privacy. The good news is – people lie about their online persona, however, Google can see thru it. Michael M. ends up dropping early, while Andy obsesses about finding his Patent number. But it all works out in the end with Final Thoughts.
