Braindead TechCast EP 77: Social Media quarterbacks love their cheerleaders

Posted on June 8, 2010 by Steven Hodson

Two days now and still everyone is obsessed with the iPhone – enough already. Both Sean and I take a look at this obsessiveness in tonights show while trying to not lose our cool – too much anyway in Sean’s case.

What amazed us as well that while everyone was expressing their undying love over an updated iPhone there were actually some things happening in the tech world that had absolutely nothing to do with the iPhone and yet the major blogs couldn’t be bother to write about them.

Actually given the current state of the high-jacking of the tech blogosphere by a social media lovefest it’s not all that surprising that real tech news is getting missed.

Posts mention in the show.

  • 2TB Hard Drives Crack the $100 Barrier – Gearlog
  • Microsoft just gave Google a swift kick in the balls – WinExtra
