Show #33: 2008 Lined Up
Posted by Michael under: Main Podcast .
Happy New Year and welcome back!
In this episode, the GenTech Boys regroup after a wonderful break (and some major surgery) to introduce this semester’s line-up of guests & general topics. In brief, we’re looking forward to conversations and Field Reports with some familiar voices: Ben Grey, who’s in a new position and who’s been to the Center for Digital Storytelling out in Berkeley, and Tina Coffey and Sean Sharp, ITRTs here in Virginia. We also have some new folks slated to share at the GenTech table: Dan Schmit, developer of KidCast, and and Pattie Bowen, another Virginia ITRT.
Our “Picks of the Week” are: Yugma, Chatter, and Ecto

Love your podcast! I tried Yugma and found it works great. To answer the question… it does actually connect beautifully between windows, mac, linux. They’re doing an interesting experiment worth cheking out… I found it at Skype Journal. See http://skypejournal.com/blog/2008/02/yugmas_reality_desktop_check_o.html . Really cool new concept.

Thanks for the comment, Steve. Just after we recorded this podcast, i installed and tried the Yugma Skype plug-in. It works like a charm… VERY slick!!!
