Dogear Nation

On this week’s show, Michael mentioned that I’d got a custom Dogear Nation shirt from the Zazzle store.

Michael has great taste, but in this case I just didn’t want the grey hoodie that he’d designed. Fortunately, it’s easy to make your own stuff on Zazzle. Starting from our SWAG page you can choose a basic item (shirt, mug or whatever) and then click through the Buy link to Zazzle. Once there, you can change the style and colour scheme and choose a size… you can even move or resize the logo or add extra text.

I ended up with a pretty cool long sleeve t-shirt in mixed blue (this is not a shot of me, but it shows what the shirt looks like):

(and it says “Tag It Dogear-Nation” on the back, too)

By the way, a big thumbs-up on the quality of the items, too. I’m impressed.

So what are you waiting for? Show your love of the podcast with your very own customized gear!

Michael and Michael welcome special guest Rob Smart to the show this week. Rob comes from IBM’s Hursley lab and was the developer of the Second Life Translation HUD back in 2006. While the rest of the world is talking about the olympics, the we focus on tech, tweets, and drinks this week. Our listener links this week focus on iPhone access to Virtual Worlds, Data, and Mobile Me. We look at the new xbat imbedded in Internet Explorer 7, and a quick look back at the summer of Web 2.0. We also unveil the new Dogear-Nation Hoodie! Just a reminder that we will not be recording a show next week and will be back on our recording schedule August 22nd.
