Episode 5 - A Casual Conversation
by Tony Chung on April 2nd, 2007
My buddy Nii Ahene and I decided to be experimental and did a little chat for Talkmatic. Spontaneous, fun, and hopefully interesting.
Topics we talk about:
- April Fool’s Day antics on the web
- Facebook brackets war
- Steve Jobs and DRM
- Nii vs. Tony (i.e. PCs vs. Macs)
- Mark Zuckerburg, sell or hold?
Curious on your thoughts. This was a spontaneous idea, unedited, raw. Do you like it? Let us know in the comments!
