Episode 35 - TGIF

Listen Later

Friday is here and we are all a bit tired, but fear not! We have another episode of The Tech Informist lined up for you to enjoy!

As has sadly been the trend the last few weeks, privacy & security stories popup again with wireless carriers and their SIM cards along with Lenovo and their Superfish adware fiasco, it seems like a never ending story.

But YouTube has an app coming for kids, QuizUp is officially on the way for both Windows & Windows Phone so not all is bad in the world.

The first regular episode of the MS Mobile Show is live, so head over to MSMobileShow.com and have a listen either there or in your favorite podcast app.

Head over to TheTechInformist.com/giveaway for details on how you can enter to win a Sensi Wi-Fi Thermostat from Emerson Electric.
