“We stopped podcasting for 10 months because we care.”
Welcome back OMGfans. We decided that we missed drinking on weekdays and yelling about nerd stuff, so it was time to bring back the OMGcast. This time, we start off by talking about how it’s been almost a year since we’ve last took to the ‘nets. And then we dive right in to Red Dead Redemption, the newest awesome game that everybody is playing. Except for Brad. He’s just sort of not playing it.
We yell at Clint for a little bit for not liking the Lord of the Rings trilogy, then move on to our next important topic: Facebook Privacy.
Facebook’s privacy rules are getting more and more out of hand, and it finally looks like some competition is going to step up, in the form of a start-up called Diaspora. Alright, maybe the site isn’t quite ready to take down Facebook, but maybe someday… In the meantime, there’s always tools like Reclaim Privacy that you can use to help you lock down your Facebook account.
Or you could continue to leave it open for the world to see, whatever floats your digital privacy boat.
Moving on, we all make a few half-assed guesses at the future of computers & technology, specifically related to the iPad, tablets, and netbooks, and how things like the Blackberry tablet are going to fail. We touch on Google’s recent acquisition of Bumptop, and then move on to talking about Star Wars and how we’re going to own these bunk beds. And probably this shirt too.
