What you do on your company’s network is your business, right? If you are curious about the answer to this or you want to understand more about what you company knows about you, watch this week’s show. Mike and Jason are once again joined by the self-proclaimed “real IT guy”: Michael Lubrano and our security expert: Corey Moomey, Cisco Security CSE. This week we talk about end-user privacy (or lack thereof) on corporate networks. We also rant and this week we rap (well… we don’t actually rap) in celebration of The New Dork in our call-to-action.

The iPhone 4 is now available for pre-order (well sort-of if you’ve been following the AT&T ordering fiasco). In this week’s Buzzword Bingo, we explore the iPhone 4. What features are compelling? Is it worth the upgrade? What is the media saying about it? We’ll discuss this and more with a terrific cast of characters. Jeremy Laurenson (Cisco Technology Solutions Architect) and Andy Waschick (Owner – Gestalt, Inc.) join Jason and Mike. As always, we rant, we opine and we make fools of ourselves (all in good geek fun, of course). The call-to-action will definitely make you ROFL (everyone knows what that stands for by now, right?).

With the recent Apple iPad announcement, tablets have once again been the topic of conversation in tech circles. In this week’s episode, we talk about tablets in the Enterprise and how they might be utilized effectively. We also share our specific opinions about the iPad.
We’ve decided to shorten the show format. There are lots of great tech news podcasts out there. So we’ve dropped the Net-Net-News segment. We’re keeping the main topic, rants and call-to-action. In fact, this week’s call-to-action is sure to make you smile.

Server virtualization is commonplace in the enterprise today. But what about desktop virtualization? What benefit does desktop virtualization bring to the enterprise end-user? Why go through the trouble of virtualizing the desktop when many applications are moving to the browser? On this week’s Buzzword Bingo, we’ll talk to two virtualization experts, Kevin Corbin (Data Center Architect – Cisco) and Michael Williams (Architect – Sisters of Mercy Health System). They join Mike and Jason for a healthy debate on the future of the enterprise desktop.
