Ep.13 - Cidercast: Matt Comi vs Windows 8
21/09/2011The title of this episode is hyperbole but the epic-ness of this podcast cannot be overstated.

He also joins us to give his unique perspective on Microsoft's recent Windows 8 developments as well as falling down along with us into a few giant Star Wars rat holes.

Ep.6 - Cidercast: Universal Fragmentation
03/08/2011Just as various iOS apps are going universal, Apple is rumoured to be considering fragmenting their eco-system even more by altering the dimensions of the iPhone's screen in version 5.
