Customer Reviews
Not always right, but always entertaining.
Three guys who rant about computer technology. Pro Open Web, pro Open Source; Java, Scala, Ruby, Python. Not too hot on Apple and certainly not fans of “New Media”. They don’t sound like fans of non-technical computer users either. I see them as vertex on a triangle formed with the Angry Mac B******s and Leo Laporte’s podcasts. They’ll cling on to their command lines like a hipster hugs his iPhone.
If you're an Apple fanboy, or someone who does little more than use their computer for FaceBook and Twitter then this podcast isn't for you.
If you have opinions, and like listening to or talking with people who have different opinions - and you aren't embarrassed to be caught swearing to yourself on public transport while listening to podcasts on public transport - then this is worth a subscription.
They aren't always right (well, in not my opinion anyway) but they at least try to come to their conclusions with reasoned (and expletive seasoned) arguments. And it helps that they are technically proficient so these aren’t baseless discussions. But they are always entertaining. If you can get past the parts where you want to scream, there is plenty to be learned from them as well.
Best Social Media Advice podcast
This podcast is great. It has the best social media advice I have ever heard. They even talk about how to get hired at Google and I think their advice is the best on the whole internet including FaceBook
