BTW I was thinking that the biggest step for today's magazines will not be electronic publication, or revenue models, but the number of employees. A large magazine will probably shrink to 20-30 people (Endgadget-sized.)]]>Apr 18th 2009 4:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/18/engadget-podcast-142-04-18-2009-5th-birthday-edition/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/18/engadget-podcast-142-04-18-2009-5th-birthday-edition/Apr 18th 2009 4:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/18/engadget-podcast-142-04-18-2009-5th-birthday-edition/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/18/engadget-podcast-142-04-18-2009-5th-birthday-edition/
Great podcast guys, I listened all the way through and you guys rocked it!

- You guys always doubt that us listeners are still listening to your podcast!

- There aren't any 15GHz processors (I think), but we *do* have tri-core ones (see AMD's Phenom X3). And Nvidia recently started numbering their models from 100 again (see Nvidia's Geforce GT 120).

- The Wikipedia entry for Engadget says that Ryan Block was a main creator (???).
(Also check out Ryan's old comments: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Engadget )

- I am an Engadget fanboy.

- Happy belated birthday!]]>Apr 18th 2009 6:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/18/engadget-podcast-142-04-18-2009-5th-birthday-edition/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/18/engadget-podcast-142-04-18-2009-5th-birthday-edition/Apr 18th 2009 7:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/18/engadget-podcast-142-04-18-2009-5th-birthday-edition/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/18/engadget-podcast-142-04-18-2009-5th-birthday-edition/
"One day in the future we'll all work at 200MHz tower desktops with 9600 baud modems, but until then we'll just have to keep dreaming. So while we're just making crap up, how's about the Flatpanel Computer mockup, by crackpot "unconventional" designer Jim Leftwich. One little doozy of a pipe dream the computer actually has a flat screen. Whatever, Jim, it'll happen one day, we so believe you."]]>Apr 18th 2009 7:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/18/engadget-podcast-142-04-18-2009-5th-birthday-edition/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/18/engadget-podcast-142-04-18-2009-5th-birthday-edition/
It was also pretty inspiring to hear all the craziness that Ryan and Peter went through in the early days and really persevered to make engadget the success that it is today. Just want to thank them for building the site and taking time out to share the stories of the birth and growth of the site. So, thanks!

P.S. Engadget 1985 really was an amazing post. Timely and comprehensive news, witty commentary, and amazing live blogs may be what makes this site great, but that post is the most memorable.]]>Apr 20th 2009 1:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/18/engadget-podcast-142-04-18-2009-5th-birthday-edition/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/18/engadget-podcast-142-04-18-2009-5th-birthday-edition/Apr 20th 2009 7:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/18/engadget-podcast-142-04-18-2009-5th-birthday-edition/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/18/engadget-podcast-142-04-18-2009-5th-birthday-edition/How many times did they say that?
"Well like you know and then like, you know right"

Just listen to it guys. Are they nervous or something?
Otherwise, a great story!]]>Apr 20th 2009 10:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/18/engadget-podcast-142-04-18-2009-5th-birthday-edition/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/18/engadget-podcast-142-04-18-2009-5th-birthday-edition/It was great to hear your story. It's good to know that you don't have to always make the "safe" choice.

The Kidney post is really freaky and scary. After looking through hundreds and hundreds of kidneys for sale... Very very much so. What people will do for money.

If a friend spent his birthday party proclaiming how awesome he was, how much hardship he had overcome to make it to his age, how he was so accomplished, yada yada, I would certainly say something. Maybe: Let's not start sucking each other's dicks quite yet, gentlemen.

Or I'd find better friends. Maybe you prefer your "serious" journalism with substantial sides of self-regard and smugness. I don't.]]>Apr 22nd 2009 1:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/18/engadget-podcast-142-04-18-2009-5th-birthday-edition/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/18/engadget-podcast-142-04-18-2009-5th-birthday-edition/PS : this is a joke, I am not selling or buying any organ...]]>Apr 23rd 2009 8:32AM
