Elite Tech News Podcast #4
April 15th, 2008

This past weekend, I participated in another episode of the Elite Tech News Podcast. This one marked the first appearance of Louis Gray, who was as polite and insightful as one would imagine based on his blog. Other participants were Mark “Rizzin” Hopkins, Steven Hodson of WinExtra, Art Lindsey from Art Lindsey.com, and Frederic of The Last Podcast. Tony Hung didn’t call in but tossed a few comments via the chat room as we recorded, and MG Siegler (Paris Lemon) was busy on an airplane or getting In-N-Out burgers; I can’t recall.
Off the top of my head, we talked about identity theft, Microsoft buying Yahoo!, blog monetization, Radiohead, ISPs sharing our data with advertisers, and the weekly “bitchmeme”: Shyftr moving the conversation and republishing RSS feeds, and the implications for content creators.
