Ep. 1112: Rupert Murdoch battles infinity

Show summary: Microsoft is apparently willing to pay Rupert Murdoch to block Google from indexing any of his websites. Are we headed towards a world where the search engine you use determines what news you get? Probably not. We explain why Murdoch may be thinking in an old fashioned limited way rather than in the current infinite Internet way. We also declare the patent office baroque. And ask it to lose weight.

Ep. 1111: Facebook is depressing

Show summary: Why the long Face...book? A woman battling depression put some pictures of herself having fun privately on Facebook. Somehow the insurance company found them and cut off her benefits saying she looked happy enough and must be cured. Really? We also get further impressions on Google's Chrome OSD now that we've had more time with it, and YouTube pulls a Hulu, but not in the good way.
