BOL 1060: PigeonNet beats DSL in South Africa

2009-09-10 Episodes

A 4 GB file can traverse 60 miles in 2 hours by pigeonnet but that only gets you 4% of the file over the South African Internet. We also keep you up to date on new Android phones from Motorola as well as open source map info from TomTom. Buzz Out Loud episodes are released …

BOL 1059: Nano Goes Retro with FM

2009-09-09 Episodes

The Apple annonucement was a little mundane. The One More Thing was an iPod Nano with a camera. We were more impressed with the fact that they added an FM radio. But really that’s the number two story. The Palm Pixi caught our eye for top billing. Should it catch yours? Buzz Out Loud episodes …

BOL 1058: Windows 7: Set it and forget it

2009-09-08 Episodes

We realize the problem with an OS installation party is there’s nothing to do. We also warn you about the great iPod camera shortage of 2009. If it’s real. And we all like the Asus Eee-reader. Too bad that and the glasses-free 3D TV aren’t real… yet. Buzz Out Loud episodes are released in their …

BOL 1056: Time to get a pimp

2009-09-03 Episodes

Ok, but just to be clear, when I say it’s time for me to get a pimp, what I MEAN is that it’s time to get a PMP — a portable media player. That is, perhaps, an iPod Touch. Anyway, you’ll understand. In other news, the MPAA is trying to clamp down on your analog …

BOL 1055: Sign me up for awesome

2009-09-02 Episodes

3D TV? Augmented reality in your contacts? The world is getting awesome. Unless you have an Xbox 360. But it’s birthday season too. 40 years ago today the first bits were sent over the nascent Internet. One year ago today Google Chrome gave out comic books to announce Google Chrome. Buzz Out Loud episodes are …

BOL 1054: Violating Terms of Service is not a crime

2009-09-01 Episodes

A judge has determined that violating Terms of Service is bad, but it’s not tantamount to unauthorized access of a computer system. Good news for Jailbreakers and hackintosh perpetrators. Also, Opera 10 is out. I know. I know. But some of you really do care. Buzz Out Loud episodes are released in their original audio …

BOL 1053: Stay healthy, stay fat

2009-08-31 Episodes

Sure Apple has made their September 9 announcement official, and yeah Disney is buying Marvel and will soon own Spider-man. But we’re most concerned about RIBA the robot bear who’s coming to get our unhealthy thin humans. Protect yourself! Keep out of beds and wheelchairs and for heaven’s sake stay over 135 pounds! Buzz Out …

BOL 1052: An actual piece of horse

2009-08-28 Episodes

I’m not sure why I mentioned an actual piece of horse, but it had to do with trojan horses and mysterious laptops showing up at Governor’s offices around the US. We also help you get hooked up with Snow Leopard compatibility and warn you against a couple of scary government initiatives. Buzz Out Loud episodes …

BOL 1051: Firefox 3.5, now safe for porn

2009-08-27 Episodes

Yes. Snow Leopard reviews are out, and I have my favorite. But the more interesting story is Mozilla finding out that people didn’t want to upgrade because they’re afraid of the awesome bar exposing their porn. So they introduced private browsing mode fast. We also welcome Jon Strickland from HowStuffWorks to the show and he …
