Geek of The North http://geekofthenorth.com Relaxed tech talk podcast from Mike Dell Sun, 05 Sep 2010 13:53:00 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 Every week I talk about the Tech items that are on my mind, answer questions from listeners and maybe try to explain something in the tech world that is on the offbeat side of tech. I talk about some tech subjects that traditional tech shows don't talk about. Such as, but not limited to, Aviation, Broadcasting, Farm Tech, Automotive, ham radio and medical. I also tend to talk a lot about Google Services. You can be a geek about anything and Technology isn't limited to computers and cell phones. Michael Dell clean Michael Dell mike@mikedell.com mike@mikedell.com (Michael Dell) 2010 Relaxed Tech talk from Mike Dell in Northern Michigan USA Aviation, Broadcasting, Farm Tech, Automotive, medical, android, iphone, ipad, ipod, microphones, ham radio Geek of The North http://publish.techpodcasts.com/tdata/coverart/gotn.jpg http://geekofthenorth.com GOTN – Geek of the North #16 http://geekofthenorth.com/podcast/gotn-geek-of-the-north-16/ http://geekofthenorth.com/podcast/gotn-geek-of-the-north-16/#comments Tue, 31 Aug 2010 14:06:30 +0000 Mike http://geekofthenorth.com/?p=264 I’m back after taking the summer basically off from the podcast.

    -I talked about some of our local stations and about Clearchannel and other BIG radio groups.

    I phone 4G left in a bar? Sounds fishy to me!

    I replaced my droid. With another droid. No problem, took 10 minutes and everything was on the new phone as soon as I logged in. Cool (in a scary way!).

    Talked about the move of Today in Aviation History to a weekly show over at Flightradio.com
