Waiting for the famous call. I assume we're talking about Microsoft, Apple, etc today?
- Robert Scoble
By the way, a new Skype came out this week for Macs and PCs. I'm using it.
- Robert Scoble
stand by. On boarding everyone now
- Tina Chase Gillmor
We are experiencing technical issues. Please stand by...
- Robert Scoble
Am I expected?
- Kevin Marks
Also using new Skype
- Keith Teare
sounds like a good show to pitch getting a new tricaster..
- Michael Roberts
slight but noticeable buzzing sound emanating (came w/ first mic)
- clive boulton
Yes Buzz
- Arnie Klaus
buzzing
- Da
I'm selling 2 iPads on ebay and buying the mini and the full size. http://www.ebay.com/itm... and http://www.ebay.com/itm...
- Keith Teare
Ballin by day, ballin by night.
- Nir Ben Yona
still buzzing?
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Yes... Still buzzing.
- Nir Ben Yona
my Windows desktop and Galaxy Nexus work great. I don't use my netbook anymore, and find tablets too cumbersome to hold, not mobile at all
- Da
we're having an weird audio issue. How loud is the buzz?
- Tina Chase Gillmor
not that loud (like a stereo that needs a whack)
- clive boulton
ok we need to live with it now. thanks
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Samsung - 56 million smartphones
- Da
finding some very polished apps for Android http://www.whitepagesinc.com/about
- clive boulton
the mini feels like apple just trying to grab some of that nexus7 market share... its not apple innovating or leading.. in fact I thought apple wasn't even into releasing an ipad of that size a few years ago.
- Michael Roberts
apples prolly stuck in the earnings race. needs to fill in slots.
- clive boulton
Apple has everything in place to park in that niche market. The Developers and User base will shape its highest and best values.
- Arnie Klaus
Michael, you're right. Steve Jobs was not in favor of a 7-inch tablet, and stated that “this size is useless unless you include sandpaper so users can sand their fingers down to a quarter of their size.”
- Nir Ben Yona
bring on Google Glass
- Da
ITV
- Arnie Klaus
Nir - interesting
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Touch with Skype
- Arnie Klaus
apple releasing some sort of TV product would be amazing, but its seems apple hasn't persuaded the networks to get on board. It does makes me wonder if Jobs would have been able to get the networks on board by now.
- Michael Roberts
Tim Cook caved on 7 inch, will he cave on Surface?
- clive boulton
iPod sales down per Apple report
- Da
Amazon versus Google versus Apple - over 1 Month: http://bit.ly/R7Czhi
- John Taschek
iPod sales down in Q4 because there was nothing dramatically different
- John Taschek
What's with the audio buzz?
- Murray Macdonald
Porn is better over wifi
- Murray Macdonald
Google TV hasn't persuaded the networks to get on board.
- clive boulton
Broke kids are on WiFi
- Murray Macdonald
I am a broke kid
- clive boulton
Tina, If Steve was alive, he would not have released this mini thing, competition or not.
- Nir Ben Yona
I’m grandfathered into unlimited VZW LTE, 21 GB last cycle. My teenage son's Nexus S on unlimited 3G T-Mobile data, 4 GB last cycle
- Da
Nir, totally disagree.
- Robert Scoble
wifi is slower than LTE
- Da
Steve copied everything.
- Murray Macdonald
Love the Wi-Fi at Stanford (generally feels fast than Googleplex)
- clive boulton
We need a virtual steve
- Arnie Klaus
Dunno. Don't think that Steve was a guy that would have swallowed his pride.
- Nir Ben Yona
He did it over and over. You all are just forgetting.
- Robert Scoble
Steve Jobs the flip-flopper
- Tina Chase Gillmor
What's with the terrible 60hz audio buzz in the audio stream?
- Murray Macdonald
Nexus 7 is very cool. It's the perfect size.
- Murray Macdonald
The Buzz must be entering the stream in Gillmor's studio or downstream. On our side we don't hear it.
- Robert Scoble
Its the BAckground noise of the big bang
- Arnie Klaus
You can see the audio buzz on the second audio meter on Gillmor's control screen.
- Murray Macdonald
hey - no SNEEZING on the show! ;-)
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Human Highway!!
- Arnie Klaus
Just turn down the second audio channel. The one showing the buzz.
- Murray Macdonald
For Waitresses
- Arnie Klaus
Zune
- Arnie Klaus
not too many Apple servers in enterprise, though
- Da
Android is huge. Apple punishes Android first apps in the app store.
- Murray Macdonald
Murray the buzz is introduced when we changed out the elictircal panel in the studio. it may not be audibleon the recording hopefully. any ideas about how to troubleshoot would be helpful
- Steve Gillmor
3:1 in the consumer market? but not enterprise market? which market?
- Michael Roberts
If Apple keep pissing people off by deleting a new cutting edge product within seven months, Android will gain a lot of new customers
- Moe Glitz
You've probably got a ground loop. Is all the audio plugged into the same power circuit? That sometimes helps. Also try a 2 prong adapter.
- Murray Macdonald
Android vs iPhone, replay of Windows vs Mac
- Da
Amen Robert.
- Murray Macdonald
tried that with no luck so far
- Steve Gillmor
The Lightning connector.
- Nir Ben Yona
Turn down your audio inputs one at a time and see if it is related to a single channel.
- Murray Macdonald
Revenue for Android is heating up. See this chart: http://gigaom.com/mobile...
- John Taschek
It's ok upgrading a new model, but deleting the old one that fast is not right
- Moe Glitz
It's not about the hardware, it's what you can do with it.
- Murray Macdonald
interesting how Apple (which I've thought of capturing the consumer market) appears to be capturing parts of the enterprise market through its tablet devices.. Yet I never hear Apple marketing much to the Enterprise.?
- Michael Roberts
Surface Ballmer live w/ Reid Hoffman (Nov 14) http://transition.churchillclub.org/upcomin...
- clive boulton
Sure. Will do. I'd love to help fix it. I'm a regular viewer and an old audio engineer. What time of day?
- Murray Macdonald
Ok, it was me distracting Steve. sorry Steve.
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Storm of the century: http://www.weather.com/news...
- John Taschek
txt me
- Steve Gillmor
Michael - Apple is all over the enterprise. They are very focused in that area. Higher Ed, Insurance, Life Sciences, Large Companies. It is a massive competitive advantage over Google, which has not traditionally been focused on getting its mobile into the enterprise.
- John Taschek
As a developer I love the Android platform. iOS is rich, but presents more limitations. MS doesn't attract me until they have a market.
- Murray Macdonald
Microsoft need to kill the Windows Brand. Move forward with the Surface and X-box Brands
- Moe Glitz
Interesting, Murray -- what are some of the reasons?
- John Taschek
in-house, custom-made enterprise programs for Surface
- Da
Da: I've found that most companies aren't doing that. The $500 Surface RT doesn't run existing Windows apps.
- Robert Scoble
An X-Box Branded Tablet could work. No Office Crap built around it.
- Moe Glitz
Hoping my father doesn't get hit by Hurricane Sandy in South Carolina. My mom is visiting me right now. He wont fair well dealing with the pets in a storm
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Windows 8 Surface runs existing Windows apps
- Da
John: Are Apple all over the Enterprise with their Desktop? or just tablets? My sense is Microsoft still dominates the Enterrpise, and the Surface is a way to at least (try) to keep Apple away from that space.
- Michael Roberts
Access to the keyboard, access to the camera, access to WiFi Direct, etc...
- Murray Macdonald
The Zune Effect
- Arnie Klaus
Xbox is quite ubiquitous and works well for TV watching, moving into integrated media
- Da
Easier background tasks, better for computer vision, and I don't need to fear that Apple won't approve my app. I can deliver directly to my customers if I wish.
- Murray Macdonald
Who backfits the desktop for touch first (Redmond? Cupertino?)
- clive boulton
HP pushed touch on the desktop before either of them.
- Murray Macdonald
Michael - it's tablets that Apple focuses on, but it is a good trojan horse. Plus it nicely timed as companies loosen up on BYOD.
- John Taschek
Retina, touch, and screen to glass will come together on the desktop (and TV)
- Arnie Klaus
Consumers don't require bloated O/S's no more. All they want is a Web Browser and an App Store on a Mobile Device
- Moe Glitz
John: I totally agree about the tablets being the trojan horse. In fact I recall the ipod getting many of my colleagues later go out and buy their first macbook.
- Michael Roberts
MS has two new OSs. RT is different
- Murray Macdonald
HP also had NewWave at the time that preceded GUI in the enterprise. Too early. Too early!
- John Taschek
my teenage son got an iPod a couple of years ago, lost it, didn't care, recently built a monster Windows rig, plays Minecraft and League of Legends on it
- Da
wasnt there once a Computer/tablet, or basically a tablet that directly hooked up to a keyboard but at the time it used only a stylus
- Tina Chase Gillmor
i think that wold still be a compelling model today but with a finger-touch screen
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Tina: The evolution of the tablet: http://visual.ly/evoluti...
- John Taschek
thanks John. Not sure what I remember, or think I remember, is there
- Tina Chase Gillmor
sometime you guys should talk about content marketing and social media marketing.. there is a huge explosion going on.. Salesforce of course is right in the middle of that change towards 'social' CRM. And John B. is as well. I can't keep up with the number of tools, plays, buys going on right now.
- Michael Roberts
Companies like Urban Airship will offer these services for developers.
- Murray Macdonald
Prefixes also keep the host brand in the mindshare.
- Murray Macdonald
where are the virtual monitors that project into the air
- Tina Chase Gillmor
The cloud is exciting. So many new possibilities.
- Murray Macdonald
Tina - I can recall a desktop Touch w/ stylus (Autocad on Sun...or Paintshop on Apple )
- clive boulton
Kinect's gesture interface is great
- Da
I think, today, Robert would rather open up a coffee shop
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Scoblebucks?
- clive boulton
Clive - funny
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Robert: you should do something contextual online when you release your book.
- Michael Roberts
Wearable + Cloud = Future.
- Murray Macdonald
Michael: I will. Murray: absolutely!
- Robert Scoble
the average Joe is now a bit (or more than a bit) of a techie now
- Tina Chase Gillmor
That's why I don't want to develop for iOS. It's not a cloud platform. ObjectiveC is an island.
- Murray Macdonald
Thanks guys!
- Murray Macdonald
Already did.
- Murray Macdonald
Murray: yes, that's why I'm getting bored with iOS. Apple better get a clue quickly.
- Robert Scoble
Thanks guys!
- Nir Ben Yona
Thanks! Always insightful!
- Michael Roberts
thanks everyone
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Murray - please give Steve a call or text
- Tina Chase Gillmor
Just texted him. Did he get it?
- Murray Macdonald
