DT 147- HeartBleed & Farewell XP

s expected, the HearBleed Bug dominates the show. Isaac Kendall and Steve discuss what the bug is, and what we should be doing about it. Julian Sanders weighs in on the end of an era, as Microsoft withdraw support for Windows XP. What you do with your computers? Should you be upgrading? Is it safe to not upgrade them? Julian has answers to all of these questions I have spoken a lot lately about Dropbox and Google Drive, and they are excellent online storage and file sharing solutions, iDrive is another service in that category, but iDrive adds backup to the equation.

DT 145 - BitCoin and Travel Tech

So this will be Art’s final show as producer, but I am sure he will be back competing in App Thursdays for many months to come,

I would like to thank Art for his support, efforts, ideas, input and friendship. The show wold not have the feel, impact or relevance that it does, without his partnership. He will be an AWESOME producer for the morning crew!

This week on the show at last we get to tackle the big question…
