Steve Guttenberg, the Audiophiliac, joins the show today to talk about the coming “singularity.”
(Credit: CNET)For those of you not from the future, the “singularity” is a concept from Raymond Kurzweil’s book “The Singularity Is Near: When Humans Transcend Biology.” According to him, human beings will eventually live forever because of nano-machines that will repair our bodies and miracle drugs. That’s about as deep as the show gets today. Again, you don’t really want us to be discussing the ever-increasing amounts of entropy in the universe.
Steve is generally disappointed with the quality of the sound systems at the New York auto show. You’d expect that a $200,000 Bentley would have pretty great speakers, but you’d be wrong.
Also on today’s show, we’ve got more Twitter stories: 1) Justin is attempting to bring back the $5-dollar Italian BMT from Subway with the world’s first Twitition (that’s Twitter + petition); 2) Post Secret meets Twitter with SecretTweet.com. Honestly, it’s one of the most depressing Web sites ever. Kind of like a not-funny fmylife.com.
Finally, it’s the weekend, so we know you have the time. Be sure to send in your call backs! We need them!
