Dogear Nation » Podcast

Michael and Michael talk about future tech, with a focus on augmented reality technology. They also look at the 3D Internet with some cool happenings of one of their favorite old school techno bands – Kraftwerk. More iPhone news – does it ever stop? And a bit of election news from friends in different time zones – thank you Andy Piper and Veronica Belmont. We also include the third in our indepth interviews from the Virtual Worlds show in Los Angeles with the Founder and CTO of Softkinetics. Don’t forget to check out our survey (hosted by Podtracker) and keep tagging with Dogear-Nation.

Matt, fresh back from holiday, does the honors and counts down to start the show with Michael M. Mixing such weighty subjects as the singularity, the concept of reputation capital and the morality of software with the lowbrow humor of pirates (arrgh!) and how to become part of the New Media elite, the co-hosts bring you a wide range of topics in just 29 minutes.
