Talking Points
a) Google has been busy. Buying DoubleClick, and confirming rumours that an upcoming web-based PowerPoint-like app is on the way. We go slightly off-topic and also discuss Bill Gates and Microsoft.
b) TV advertisers are starting to hold back for internet deals.
c) Rumours of an eBay acquisition of StumbleUpon is interesting, and has also nudged Google into adding a 'discovery' feature to their toolbar. Toolbars are hot? Really?
d) MySpace releases its take on social news. Our first impressions.
e) David has great things to say about the Feisty Fawn release from Ubuntu.
f) David and James quickly discuss two 'web stars du jour'; Joost and Twitter.
g) Closing thoughts.

If you want to get Twitter activate it on your mobile phone. I was never an addict until I did that. The SMS service is down quite a bit and I get like a crack addict without a fix! I think that is the big draw for a lot of people. You can still be connected to all your "friends" when your not at a computer. It is also an amazing tool while your at conferences. At PodCamp NYC there was so much going on if you were following the right people you had a far easier time staying on top of what was going on in other sessions. I actually left some sessions to go to others because of peoples twitter posts. Just my two cents!
