    Dude awesome show, like your segment on the Droid, I was hoping you will do some un-boxing but I guess u were squealing like a little girl when it showed up at your doorstep.

    About the show, is interesting to see a 'temp' co-host, I do wonder why he was covering for Bryant today. I do think that the mic were a little low volume compared to the music in between the segments.

    On ShuttleWorth stuff, I think is cool that he is doing that, althought I am really not a big Ubuntu fan. Woud love to know more about other distros like Mandriva news for a change. Like for example they had an announcement recently about InstantOn which sounds awesome.

    I am interested on the power of FLOSS on education like, SugarLab on a stick, this is the whole Sugar desktop environment on a USB. Nothing uber revolutionary for us geeks, but still would be cool to check it out. Specially because the sugar design ideas are actually being taking more seriously away from the XO into an actual regular desktop experience. Forget about the top down square way of pushing information what about a centar to the out of the screen. Circle menu's circle options and networks, just make much more sense.

    Also, Silverlight sucks… I cringe everytime I hear Gillmore talk about Silverlight as the future of the web while the rest of the people are moving to html5. Webkit is just much better technology than Silverlight. And also have no issue about integration. Patents sucks so much regarless on how “good” microsoft behaves. If M$ was so good, they will just never patent it to begin with. I don't see Google patenting html5 storage API or the <video> tag.
