Manton and Daniel are joined by very special guest Brent Simmons to talk about assorted topics including Brent’s podcast, Seattle, the Omni Group, and importantly, the promise of the internet as a guarantee of free speech.

Daniel and Manton observe the endings of Cingleton, Macworld Expo, and Glassboard, then revisit the issue of privacy policies in the wake of news from Apple that they’ll be more widely required.
