Dogear Nation

We welcome back Michael Ackerbauer from IBM’s Metaverse team, as we review your tags this week. It’s been a pretty busy and crazy set of tags, but with the release of iNotes from IBM recently there are more iPhone users getting access to their corporate data. We also look at some really cool historical computing trends and see if we can guess the device. Our Obligatory 3D internet section gives many people a first look at Emotiv’s headset, as seen on the Discover Channel’s “Prototype This” show, while the coffee lover’s out there will get a cool printer. Don’t miss the interview with Ben and Nathan from MyCosm at the end of the show.
