TUAW Live: Talkcast Thursday 8/2 9:30p ET

If you've listened to any of the TUAW podcasts, you already know what your friendly neighborhood bloggers sound like... but we have no idea what you sound like. That's about to change: announcing the first-ever live audio chatcast from TUAW, via the Talkshoe platform, tomorrow, Thursday 8/2, at 9:30 pm ET (0230 GMT). Our topic is "One Month of iPhone" and we'll be taking some of your questions and comments, audio or text, live during the half-hour show; we might even find the time to give away a couple of genuine TUAW souvenirs to some lucky participants.

Since this is the first time we've done a live show, and since there are bound to be a few hiccups, we'd like to limit the audience to invited guests only for this outing. How to get invited? Simple -- go register for a Talkshoe.com account, download the client, and come back here to leave a comment letting us know you're coming. We'll send out an email with the show link on Thursday afternoon. You can listen in via the client or over a conventional/VoIP phone call once you have the show info.

Looking forward to hearing from all of you soon!

TUAW Reader Discussion on Grokster and Google Video

groksterEvery so often, now that we have a chatroom, I'm going to have little impromptu chatcasts with readers on different tech topics that affect the Mac community. This time around we talked about the Grokster decision, the RIAA, the MPAA, and Google's new video playback capabilities and their lack of a video client for the Mac.

Here it is:

CK TUAW: so what do you guys think about the Grokster ruling?
Joe: ?
CK TUAW: http://www.nytimes.com/2005/06/27/technology/27cnd-
grokster.html?adxnnl=1&adxnnlx=1119898935-jDT/6cD8tbk7ycNTzY9DHw

CK TUAW: the Supreme Court by a unanimous vote ruled against Grokster
Joe: o
mrbarrett: well...
CK TUAW: basically saying that any file-sharing software that promotes pirating should be held
accountable for its misuse by others
********** at 3:04 PM jx left the room
Joe: yup it sucks
CK TUAW: well....?
mrbarrett: personally, I'm mixed. There are many legit uses for P2P networks...and I hope that
P2P won't be harmed by this ruling
Joe: don't kill bit torrent
mrbarrett: but it's also clear that there are some companies, like Grokster, that were using P2P
solely for illegal purposes
mrbarrett: the ruling did seem to focus more on Grokster's misuse of the technology, rather than the technology itself

TUAW's Tired Tuesday Afternoon Chatcast

tiger ichatScott and I became bored and lonely this afternoon with nary a sign of our fellow TUAWers, so we decided to have a chatcast. It's largely rambling and unstructured, so it may bore you to tears. We discuss the new PowerBook rumors, Tiger's new Dictionary and Thesaurus, iChatAV, Xsan update, and Scott's Mac mini. Here it is:

Scott McNulty: ack! trillian crashed
3:55 PM
C.K. Sample, III: ha ha
C.K. Sample, III: hey want to do a chatcast?
Scott McNulty: sure
Scott McNulty: what about?
C.K. Sample, III: something Mac related
Scott McNulty: ahh
C.K. Sample, III: let's post it on TUAW
Scott McNulty: I have heard about these MAcs
Scott McNulty: Macs even
C.K. Sample, III: Welcome everyone to the TUAW Tuesday Chatcast
C.K. Sample, III: co-hosted by C.K. and Scott
C.K. Sample, III: (b/c we're the only TUAWers online now)
Scott McNulty: I heart alliteration
C.K. Sample, III: lol
Scott McNulty: Thanks for having me, C.K.
C.K. Sample, III: i just said co-hosted
