Show 105 – iPhone 5 Disappointing for some…

Bonnie and Bob recommend Manage Flitter, James uses Just Unfollow

Marcel and Bob are starting a new podcast about TV Shows called Crazy TV Talk

Marcel recognizes that he is super awesome and can make his own sound effects

Richard is an organizer of the VCON SciFi Fantasy convention

iPhone 5 was announced today… some very disappointed Mavens are in the house

The differences between iPhone 5 and iPhone 4S

The camera is better… same Megapixels but better low light capability and you can now take pictures while recording video

When James saw the new upgrade he immediately went to the store and bought a Samsung Galaxy SIII

Kurt says Apple will announce the iPad Mini as a remote control for Apple TV

James says Samsung will win the battle for the Boomers because of adjustable font size

Marcel makes a Goo Phone joke

When Windows Tablets come out will they make Androids Tablets obsolete?

Andrew is looking forward to the Lenovo Yoga and other innovative Windows 8 devices

Randall cracks a couple jokes… you're going to have to listen to hear just how bad they are!

Gaming with James – Big Tangent about a potential NHL strike

iPhone 5 could have a big impact on games? – James says for games get an iPad

Santa Clause called the Bunker hotline and so can you… 1-877-636-1474

Wix.com is easy to use and kicks butt… make a site using Wix this week!

Bunker Project Episode 104:

Mavens in the House:

MAC Computers and Samsung Smartphones

Andrei Mincov

Has a Mac Pro, doesn’t like iPhone.

Randall Orser @numbercrunchers

Loves Apple and Steve Jobs is God

Marco Pasqua ablegamers.com writer keyprinciple.com

Has Apple Products but way more on Samsung’s side

Lucas Mattiello @levelupliving

Not a fanboy but his Apple products work well for him!

Marcel Lapointe @movieyearbook

Show 104 – Samsung Vs Apple Bunker Style

App.Net looks like it will be cool

Randall recommends Wave Accounting… free!

James wants to know if Bob’s personality is patentable

Design Patents? How can you patent a rectangle? And rounded corners?

Andrei says Samsung lawyers did a good job making everyone think the case was about rounded corners

Is the message sent a good one? $1 Billion decision – Andre says yes!

Bob says the more choice the better, Andre says legitimate choice not illegally copied products

Bonnie asks should some of those patents have been given to them in the first place

Andrew brings up Apples new podcasting patent

Is the problem the patent system?

Bonnie posted a youtube video showing Apple hasn’t invented hardly anything since Steve Wozniak left

Andrei makes a good point about Apple offering a licensing agreement that Samsung refused

One benefit of these legal proceedings is we will test what can be patented and held up in court

A long digression about Google Car, Google Glasses and more

Andrew reads a blog post about Samsung orchestrating the best Billion Dollar ad Campaign

Gaming with James – Happy 40th birthday to Video Games, Zynga COO says bye bye, Onlive – WTF, EA brings women’s hockey into NHL 2013 and even more…

Motorola is suing Apple and seeking injunctions against all iPods, iPhones, iPods and Macs…

James gets the Aisec people talking – Bob wants them to do a Podcast.

The first Windows Phone 8 is coming from Samsung not Nokia

Margaret Reynolds @bc_insurancegal >>The Wicked Wix of the West

Some people join us via Google + but they don’t speak English.

Show 103 – Facebook Marketing with Matt Astifan and App.net first impressions.

App.Net looks like it will be cool

App.Net – Andrew, Bob, and Bonnie are on App.net – Is there a market for a paid service?

App.Net is just an API and all the work will be done by developers – no advertising ever, the promise

Over $400 000 has been raised so far… $50 per year for a user and $100 for developer with their own Kickstarter like campaign

Matt says because it is a paid service it will reduce spam. Andrew says the spammers will combine spamming with credit card fraud

If This Then That

If This Then That tells Bob when it is raining so he can grab his umbrella and reminds him to pay his rent! You can set up any recipe you want.

Set up a recipe to tell you when Amazon offers a free book

Set up Cascading Events by daisy chaining your recipes and create a domino effect

Facebook Chat with Social Media Trainer, Matt Astifan

Two scenarios – B 2 B – Networking and B 2 C – customer acquisition

Best strategy is to create a fan page with a landing page (squeeze page)

Run Facebook Ads to see what converts best and fine tune it.

Pictures of a face generally have higher Click Through Rates

Always learn something about your demographic with every campaign

Matt recommends direct response marketing. You must be able to track ROI.

The only downside to a facebook landing page is you can’t do split testing

Bob bought a Nexus 7

Bob loves it – solid, sexy and great performance

The only complaint is camera quality isn’t great

Works great using other languages

Good Battery Life

Bob highly recommends it

Bonnie reviewed an ASUS Transformer Prime – with Windows! And Andrew is looking for a new computer and likes the Lenovo Idea Pad Yoga

Bonnie likes it because you can use it for everything included enterprise use

The Yoga has four modes – notebook, tablet, tent and stand
