The Michael’s look at the Internet of Things thru NFC based Commitment Rings, trying to decide if it would really provide the value that the site claims. Would you be able to keep your partner from watching your favorite show, before you? Can we tie it to blockchain (short answer – NO!). Can you use this for secure transaction? What about restaurant use cases? Then we switch to BTLE as a potential solution… ultimately we think thru interesting use cases… would love to hear your ideas. Michael M. then transitions to his recent experience using Square as a vendor… have you accepted cash via square yet?
Michael R. then takes us thru his experiences at MoogFest…Check out his wrap up over here. After 30 years, Michael also learns to say Moog (Think Vogue) not Moog (Moo GH). We look at cool tools like the Artiphon and the Brother From Another Mother – BFAM. And some really great music by Silver Apples (Check out the embedded video above.
Finally we wrap up with a few games.. and Michael R. get’s hooked on Michael M’s recommendation of Exploding Kittens!
