Random things to talk about

March 28th, 2010 by Andy Leave a reply »

Lets see… what to discuss… what to discuss…


CNET’s Buzz Out Loud is currently my favorite podcast to listen to. It’s everything a podcast should be. Fast paced, funny, nice audio quality, lots of timely and interesting content. They record a new episode every weekday and talk about the day’s tech stories. If you’re looking to start your own podcast, these guys are the people to look up to.


… I had so much fun in London and Orlando last week. They left me with multiple reasons to smile every time I think back. I really want to take longer trips to both places in the next couple years. London to just explore and Orlando to visit all of Disney World (I already have plans to go back to Orlando for the Potter theme park, so this is why I will not mention it here).

Pictured above is me at the Absolut Ice Bar in London. EVERYTHING inside is made of ice. Bar, seats, drink glasses, etc. The drink I’m holding glowed on its own.


… it’s exciting to hear about all the apps being developed for the iPad. I’m especially excited for Flight Control HD and Plants VS Zombies HD (both are my current favorites for iPhone right now). They should be awwwwesome on the large iPad screen! I’m also praying USA Today makes a nice iPad app, as they are my favorite newspaper. Speaking of USA Today…


… I think I’m the first person in 5 years to subscribe to the print edition of a newspaper. Similar to my affection for Dunkin’ Donuts, there’s just something about reading USA Today that makes me happy. Everything you need to know about the world is right there. I subscribed the other day and it should start showing up on my doorstep this week. I signed up for a short-term subscription just in case they announce an iPad app soon.


… Related to my Keurig post earlier this month, Keurig just announced a new flavor called ‘Revv’ that packs extra energy. Black Tiger and Donut Shop Coffee are currently my two favorite flavors.

    Andrew-
    I love the site, and all of your podcasts, but I was wondering if there are any other podcasts you would recommend? I am not quite as interested in technology as you seem to be, but I think I might die waiting for the next smartmouths episode to come out. Thanks!
    P.S. The glowing drink scares me a little, what was in it?

    Hi!
    seriously, I just heard SM #10 over again, and I almost shit my pants, like litteraly. I had totally forgotten about that! and you actually telling everybody is awesome. Hope the janitor who picked it up lissens to SM.
    an SM or MuggleCast without you is not worth lissening to. You’re the best host ever!
    Love you!
