Techfoolery - Episode 3: "Outage Week"

This week on Techfoolery, Mike and Ashley talk PlayStation Network's massive fail, Amazon's massive EC2 fail, Apple's location tracking panic, the white iPhone, Project Cafe (otherwise known as the Wii 2), and Sony's completely weird and creepy tablets, the S1 and S2.

We also announce the winners of round 1 of the Technodome, start up round 2, and get another answer from our advice columnist Steve.

Another addition to the Museum of Mobile Art and a great retro commerical makes this episode of Techfoolery a fun one! Let us know what you think in the comments. We made the audio a lot better, we think!

Hmmm I wanted to watch but you made it so difficult for me. Couple of points:

Look at the camera - not at each other.

The bloke needs to annunciate and talk a bit louder - couldn't hear his mumbles.

Sound quality has already been mentioned.

wow, this is better than a lot of full-on corporate sponsored tech shows I used to watch back in the day. I stopped watching tech shows after tech.tv bit the dust, so basically this is the first good show I've seen since the nineties.

I am surprised at the view count (at time of writing this comment), expected it to be in the tens of thousands. It's still a new show so I'm sure it's going to pick up. Subscribed!

Can I make a few suggestions?

Pls don't incorporate tutorial or tech support segments. Keep those in the portal/website and just mention the link during the show.

Pls consider alternatives to 30-60 sec sponsor advertising. It really lowers the quality of youtube tech shows.

Would love to see Android and iOS software reviews. I'm an iOS user myself so would be interested in seeing how the Android Marketplace compares to the Appstore.

Keep making shows!

Ashley get out of the corner, because there's a nasty reverb on your voice compared to Mike's. You should cover the bare walls with something that absorbs the sounds.

Great show! Thanks for posting My Picture!

Doing my best to share the show!

Great video! I like what you said about those Sony tables.

The funny thing is...as soon as i started this video there was a Power outage at my place. (I live in India, so these things are common) :P
