TUAW TV Live at 5 PM EDT: Kelly's house of crackpot theories, video edition
The proprietress of Kelly's House of Crackpot Theories, Ms. Kelly Guimont, will be joining me this afternoon for what should be a wildly fun edition of TUAW TV Live. If you join in on the TUAW Talkcast on Sunday nights, you know just how much fun Kelly is. I'm not sure exactly what we'll be talking about today -- I may leave that up to the chat room to decide -- but whatever the topic happens to be we'll have a blast. As usual, I'll be starting the show at 5 PM EDT (2 PM PDT / 10 PM BST) sharp, and we'll take a few minutes to chat before the demos start. To join in on the chat and watch the live streaming video, drop by TUAW about five minutes before the start time to get your instructions on how to participate. If you're unable to join us for the show, remember that you can always subscribe to the video podcast and watch the show at your leisure in iTunes or any other favorite podcatching app. The past shows are also available on the TUAW YouTube channel.
Talkcast Tonight: Heat and Speculation Edition, 7PT/10ET
It's Sunday, and that can mean only one thing: Tonight we'll be rocking the Talkcast at 4pm Hawaiian/7pm Pacific/10pm Eastern time. Our usual suspects will include me, your host for the evening. We'll have some discussion of Microsoft's cute new ad campaign, and of course, a portion of the program will also be dedicated to my favorite pastime: rampant geeky postulating! This week from my house* we have a tired old perennial favorite, some video format rumors, Apple TV (among others) updates, and a debate over AppleTV specs and what they should be in that next rumored update. Note: West Coast Host means you also get an opportunity to join in on the infamous (and delightfully unrecorded) Aftershow. Prepare to answer the ultimate question, "Caller -- what are you wearing?" Your calls and questions help us make the show the best it can be, otherwise I'm just talking to myself! To participate on TalkShoe, you can use the browser-only client, the embedded Facebook app, or the classic TalkShoe Pro Java client; however, for maximum fun, you should call in. For the web UI, just click the "TalkShoe Web" button on our profile page at 4 HI/7 PDT/10 pm EDT Sunday. To call in on regular phone or VoIP lines (yay for free cellphone weekend minutes!): dial (724) 444-7444 and enter our talkcast ID, 45077 -- during the call, you can request to talk by keying in *8. If you've got a headset or microphone handy on your Mac, you can connect via the free Gizmo or X-Lite SIP clients; basic instructions are here. Be there or be four sided with right angles! *That would be Kelly's House Of Crackpot Theories, a place where hypotheticals roam free.
