9/3/06 - "Behind the Show"
Week of September 3rd, 2006. This weeks show contains a Behind the Music expose of the first 50 episodes then covers Yahoo, Flickr, Schmidt and Apple, Skype WiFi, AOL MusicNow, Geek eye, and as always, a whole lot more.
Weekly tech roundup includes Schmidtty with a snake in his pants, Google's new services, AOL's big blunder(s), Yahoo Builder, Apple Leopard, Opera update, Shauna, Iris on the Virus, Tech Tips and a whole lot more...
"After hearing accusations that Coldplay's Chris Martin stole a song
from unknown band Creaky Boards, Schmidt lashes out in defence of
Coldplay in this intense and unbridled (and quite obviously
unscripted) tirade against the millions of Creaky Boards fanboys."
