In this episode, John Federico (twitter: @gadgetboy), Craig Calder (twitter: @ccalder), Chia-Lin Simmons (twitter: @zeropts), Steve Hatch (twitter:@shatch) and our guest, Rob Goldman, (twitter: @robjective) CEO of threadsy discuss: Rob will be attending the CrunchUp event next week in the valley Craig will attend the Glasshouse event in NYC on Monday, 11/16 John and Craig will attend Web 2.0 Expo NY Google Wave vs. Threadsy Mozilla releases plans, screenshots for its Raindrop universal inbox. Chia-Lin thinks it may have the potential of being vaporware. We re waiting for mobile clients (especially on the iPhone) to support Twitter Lists. Threadsy is working on Twitter Lists support. Parse.ly is in private beta. Read Write Web calls it The Pro Bloggers Feed Reader. Lazyweb is a similar client. It s going to be a tough job for some of these services to get people to switch from Google Reader. Chia-Lin is holding back on her Droid purchase. It s only a CMDA phone that she can t use internationally plus, she thinks that Verizon may get the iPhone. Will Verizon get the iPhone any time soon? We hash it out. John has started reading Kindle books on his iPhone even after questioning why anyone would do that. Doh! The ODM crew wants to know if John has purchased any more Vooks. Yes, he decided to give Vooks another chance and bought Gary Vaynerchuk s Crush It in Vook format. Amazon has just released Kindle software for Windows that s decidedly for the netbook crowd. The class action lawsuits against the social gaming companies have arrived. Are Facebook and Myspace liable for the actions of these networks? We doubt it. A boxee box is coming! We want. Rob built his own MythTV box! Netflix may support the MPAA 30-day window on new releases! We re not happy. Why not release James Cameron s upcoming film Avatar across all platforms at once, just to see how the revenue streams unfold? Rupert Murdoch said that he s going to block Google and remove all content from his properties from the search engine. Hah! This is the media mogul equivalent of Jumping the Shark. An interesting coup for Microsoft should Murdoch cut a deal with Bing to allow them to index his content. Hmmmm Our music is Democracy from Alexander Blu.

Jeff Jarvis talks about Howard Stern 3.0: The Future of Entertainment Sirius XM Year-Over-Year Net Susbcribers haven t increased in a year AT s Network Problems Could be Self-Induced by Poor Architecture Chia-Lin has groped the Droid and is in love with this new gadget. Google has released Android 2.0 along with Droid, brings free Google Maps turn-by-turn navigation. A game changer, to be sure. Even with an exclusive on the Palm Pre, Sprint still lost subscribers last quarter We love Julius Genachowski, the new head of the FTC. The FTC wants to buy back TV spectrum to make it available for mobile devices. Broadband is now a universal right in Norway. Netflix Streaming is coming to the PS3 and Wii Roku released two new boxes: the Roku HD-XR and the Roku SD Netflix will offer a streaming-only service, but not in the US. WTF!? It probably has something to do with rights. Steve would drop cable altogether and go IPTV. What about Cable a la carte? Never happen. Our music is Democracy from Alexander Blu.
