New link for the treasure chest

Hey all, Every month the treasure chest link is going to expire. It's the only way we can provide some measure of verification that you're still supporting the show. So with that in mind Ben suggested we also make a BitTirrent Sync link to the folder. This will help some people be able to access it better. Here is the BitTorrent Sync link! https://link.getsync.com/#f=DTNS2&sz=33E9&t=1&s=6XRHZCGIRHXQRB733IBEBDXLGLQ...

Exclusive Content in the Treasure Chest

So today we had a little issue with the broadcast tool that sends audio to AlphaGeekRadio meaning we lost a bit of the pre-show. But YOU didn't. Here's what we were saying when we THOUGHT we were live https://www.dropbox.com/s/vw3pu9hmxj78whz/DTNSBONUS20150429.mp3?dl=0 Not only that but we decided to share a little of what we were talking about even BEFORE we decided to go live. This ...

DTNS Award Photo

Since a few of you asked, here's a picture of the award that Brian just dropped off.

You won!

Last night in Las Vegas, Daily Tech News Show received the Podcast Award for best Technology podcast. That's thanks to you. This was the 10th podcast awards and the technology category is always highly competitive. Shows like This Week in Tech and Security Now have taken the award multiple times and DTNS was up against both of those deserving shows in the category. The award is determined by fan vote though and people must have voted more for DTNS. So thank you. This award is yours. And if I...

Request for thoughts on today's Topic (4/7)

On today's DTNS Patrick and I are going to talk more about John Oliver's interview of Snowden and his way of making surveillance issues relevant. How do you think we can make tech issues, especially major ones, palatable to the general public?

Thank you so much for the support this month!

March Man. So much March.

So *usually* I like to write these update emails after Jennie and I have a weekly check in on stuff. Problem is we're not really doing the weekly check in because SO MUCH MARCH IS HAPPENING. SXSW, the Buzz out Loud Reunion, Social World for me in San Diego plus Jennie flying out to New York for a family thing. It's crazy. So here are some tidbits. Buzz Out Loud Reunion is March 29th at 12:30 Pacific time. It will be streamed in some fashion on Alpha Geek Radio and Diamondclub.tv. If you don't...

Thanks

Sometimes I just want to say thanks to all of you. Its incredible how much support this show gets and it is appreciated so much. Y'all rock. That's all. Tom

Plans? What plans?

So this week Jennie and I really just scrambled to figure out how to cover the net neutrality thing. We originally intended to do a round table on Friday after we had a chance to digest the rules. The FCC had other plans. Turns out the rulkes still aren't actually published. So we went with a smaller round table on Thursday about the history and context (Thanks JuRY and Jon Strickland!) and held off on the bigger round table until we actually get rules we can all look at. In the meantime, we'...

Jennie's Full Conversation with Peter Wells

At the end of last Friday's audio show we had a five minute segment of Jennie talking to Peter Wells from Reckoner about how she uses her Android tablet. That was edited by Jennie to deliver the best or most relevant parts. But there was a bout 15 minutes of conversation in total. So here you go patrons. If you're interested here's everything Peter and Jennie had to say to each other, unedited. No filters. THEY MIGHT SAY ANYTHING! But most likely it will be about tablets.

Poll at the request of Walter Riggs

Walter Riggs wrote on YouTube: "Lost me at more Apple car RUMORS. I challenge Daily Tech NEWS Show to put up a poll and see how many of us Patreons of the show care about more BS Apple rumors... especially those of a car." So as requested: http://strawpoll.me/3687775

Here's the Hangout on the Survey Results

Hey there folks. Here's the archived version of the hangout Jennie and I did going through the survey results and talking about thoughts for the show. If you missed it, well, now you don't have to. Thanks all!

Distant early January Update

Hey everybody, Thank you for your continuing support of Daily Tech News Show. We’ve finally caught a break after CES and Microsoft and I want to give you the distant early warning on a few things from the meeting Jennie and I had today. Feb. 26 is when the FCC is expected to vote on Open Internet Guidelines, AKA net neutrality. We’re thinking about how we want to approach these couple days and what guest we might want to get on. So let us know any thoughts. Jennie got a chance to eat Mac...

Holiday Specials and more

Hey there, Had a quick weekly meeting with Jennie and wanted to fill you in. Mostly we talked about the holiday specials. We'll be pre-recording special episodes, as you probably know. We'll do them on a hangout as usual but we won't make a big deal out of them. They're meant to be enjoyed later in the month when we're not doing usual episodes. However as you are backing us at the early warning level we're giving you the heads up. RECORDING SCHEDULE Wed. 12/10 5:30PM Eastern/2:30PM Pacific -...

A word about that discount code

So I forgot an important piece of information when I sent out the DTNS store discount code. That discount starts Friday morning just after midnight and runs until Midnight Monday night. Apologies if you try it now and it doesn't work. Though I think David is going to activate it a little early. Thanks again. Sorry about that. Tom

Psst. Discount on Coffee Mug and shirts

Hey y'all, As I mentioned on the show today we finally put together a way people can get some DTNS coffee mugs as well as the DTNS shirts. You all do NOT need to buy more stuff from me believe me. You support the show plenty. But I know some of you still wanted this kind of stuff, so David Michael who runs the store set up a Patron-only discount for y'all. Use the code BFDTNSPATRON and you get 20% off your total order at http://d...

What do you think?

So we're nearing the end of year one of Daily Tech News Show and we thought it was time to ask folks what they think. Jennie put together a survey. It has some of the normal survey kinds of questions. How old are you? How many podcasts do you listen to? What's your favorite desert? Etc. If you have time and inclination you can help us out by answering it at: http://bit.ly/DTNS-Survey This purely for mine and Jennie's edificati...
