Technogaze was brought to you by Mark, Raena and Michael this week, where we covered a broad range of topics in the tech area.  We had a look at the latest going ons with the NBN in Tasmania as well as trying to understand the accuracy of the MyBroadband website in how it expresses potential ADSL performance with what people are actually receiving.  Samsung have announced its new flagship Android phone, the S5, as well as the next iteration of their smartwatch the Galaxy Gear – we had a look at the specifications of these two new products.  We also looked into a serious bug that affects SSL security on Apple OSX and iOS devices and encouraged listeners to download the latest software to counteract it.

Laurent , the creator of the new gay nightlife events app, WATTSON, was in the studio and we explored his personal reasons for devising the app and the interesting techniques he uses to bring relevance to his audience.

In more general news we saw how the UK’s GCHQ security agency  has been capturing stills from Yahoo webcam chats, the AFP have been using drones in operational situations, the benefits of crowdsourcing data on women ovulating and how placing chips in Oysters is helping the farming of this food.

In wrapping up the show, we had a playful look at the NSA’s Top 10 Pickup Lines.
