    7: Alphabet Soup Aug 13, 2015
    Show notes

    A is for Android. G is for Google. W is for WTF. This week our hosts try to dissect the news that Google is rebranding parts of itself under the 'Alphabet' umbrella. What does it all mean? Will there still be free burritos? All this and our hosts still manage to pack in a few listener questions. It's like a gift to you, on your birthday. Happy birthday! Yes you, yes we know, it's your birthday! Google told us so.

    This week the team ponders the big questions of our time. What's the future of Google+, one of the most ambitious projects Google has ever undertaken? Is there really free beer being given away in Australia? Is VR the next big thing for Google? Why aren't more people upset that Virtual Reality is an oxymoron?
