About the Show
This week we talk about Jeremy Yang's departure from Yahoo, the Facebook / Twitter fall out, David's haircut and a few sites which have caught our attention this week.
Also on the agenda is a cool new technology which should change video blogging advertizing in the not-too-distant future.
Finally we're updating the site, and also looking for a new camera, please be our guiding light and shed your wisdom in the comments section.

Hey guys, Id recommend one of the Sony Handycams. I bought the little DCR (bottom of the range) for about R5k. It was recommended by the guys at Orms, but I found the same model cheaper at Game. Its a truly decent little camera with 30GB HDD, night mode, touch screen navigation, decent optical zoom etc.
My recommendation - orms.co.za/product.php?a=view-amp-product=1453

@Dave - Thanks man, we use a Nokia N95 and Nokia N82. Both are great phones with excellent camera quality but unfortunately the sound is not so great. We are still keen on keeping it raw but we are getting more complaints about the quality of sound. So I think if we want to grow our show we need to up our game.
@Brad - Appreciate it ;)
@Ross - Thanks for the link dude, we are looking at Sony HCs with good storage, so I will take a good look at that one. Shot-a-lot.

What phone are you using to record the show?
If it supports wired handsfree through a 3.5mm jack then you can simply hook an external mic into there is sound is the only issue. You can pick them up for less than £10.
Personally 1 of the things that I like about your shows is that it is so basic - in that you dont have expensive, fancy equipment. It shows how accessible these video blogs can be to everybody.
