Dynamite internet pioneers
Summary: On this week's Technolatte podcast, the Australian team looks at Sir Tim Berners-Lee's comments on the NBN, Transport for New South Wales' hot house for train apps, the federal election and what it means for the NBN, and BlackBerry 10.
What did Sir Tim Berners-Lee think of the National Broadband Network (NBN) and data retention? What is the New South Wales government doing with transport apps? How will the election impact the NBN rollout and other tech initiatives? And why did Research In Motion (RIM) become BlackBerry?
On this week's Technolatte podcast, the Australian team discusses:
Father of the world wide web Sir Tim Berners-Lee's first of what is likely to be many speeches in Australia
Transport for New South Wales holding a hot house to develop real-time tracking apps for Sydney trains
The latest uptake figures for the NBN, and what it will all mean now that Prime Minister Julia Gillard has announced that the election will be held on September 14
The launch of BlackBerry 10, and when the devices will be available in Australia.
