[ Download podcast MP3 ]

In our second podcast, Ashwin Kumar, Balaji Dutt, Deepak Jois, Deepak Sarda and Hitesh Sarda get all chatty about their backup strategies. Each one of us has his own unique action plan for that unfortunate day when our disks might fail. Later, we also discuss the stupendous success of the iPhone Appstore and contrast with the app space for Google Android cellphones.

For the second time in a row, we apologize for the poor sound quality of the podcast. You can be sure the minions are getting a talking to.

TechnoBabble Podcast #0, a.k.a. 'Hello, World' - Google Wave

[ Download podcast MP3 ]

In our maiden podcast, we get together and talk about Google Wave.

Is it a brave new step to boldly go where no web giant has gone before, or merely a mashup of pre-existing tools? An attempt to capture some enterprise market share or to fundamentally change the way the Internet works? Will we see massive gains in worker productivity or the advent of real-time spam from Nigeria? We discuss!

Hosts: Deepak Sarda, Ashwin Nanjappa, Anshul Nigham, Hitesh Sarda and Amit Jain.
