Buzzword Bingo 6: Freaking Flying Cars
The browser wars are back! George Lucas isn’t writing their fate this time. If so, Internet Explorer would be Firefox’s father. No, the heavyweights are weighing in on the latest generation of the web. The browser is the key to current cloud applications (and possibly desktop applications in the future). There is as much for the winner to gain this round as there was back in the 90’s when Microsoft and Netscape went head-to-head. In this week’s Buzzword Bingo, we survey the current browser landscape with returning guest, Corey Moomey (@camdogthetwelve) and a new guest, Andy Waschick (@Gestalt). Andy is the owner and founder of Gestalt, Inc. As always, we also cover recent stories in our Net-Net News segment, Rants and the Call-To-Action.
