Hello folks and welcome to another episode of the Tech Informist!

Thank you all for listening to our return episode last week and for sharing your feedback. Again, we apologize for the electrical interference that popped up about 20 or so minutes in. We believe we have isolated the issue and can avoid it in the future.

If you have any feedback you would like to share, please submit it to
[email protected] and we may read it on the next episode.

As you travel during this holiday season, be safe and be responsible with how much time you are spending with your tech gadgets and do your best to not ignore those loved ones who are with you in person.

We are starting up a new Slack channel for fans of the show to get together and discuss the show, technology or even share other stories that interest you.

It is great to be back!

After our long hiatus for various reasons of life getting busy, we are back with Episode 105 of the Tech Informist! A lot has changed in the last couple of months, but one thing has stayed the same..... fun discussion about technology.

We appreciate all of the emails and feedback since we have been away, so please continue sending in feedback and suggestions via email at
[email protected].

During editing, we noticed a little audio interference that pops in around the 24 minute mark that we hope is not too distracting. We will do our best to avoid this interference on upcoming episodes by re-routing power and mic cables.

As mentioned on this episode, right after going on hiatus Tech Informist was accepted to the Tech Podcast Network which is home to some of the best independent tech focused podcasts able to be heard today.

Not every show that submits gets accepted, so we thank you the listeners for listening and to the Tech Podcast Network for accepting our show into their lineup. Being here helps other people discover Tech Informist and will open up more collaboration opportunities for guests and such in the future.

Thank you all again!

On this special episode of The Tech Informist, we are joined by the hosts of the MS Mobile Show, Vernon EL Smith and David V Kimball.

Why the collaboration? To recap the recent Microsoft Event in New York from October 6, 2015.

At this event, Microsoft unveiled and demoed the following devices:

It was a fantastic presentation in which Microsoft showed off some wonderful looking new hardware to show they are not the "Same old Microsoft". They are really heading in the right direction, and this event showed multiple reasons why. Hardware, people they have in the right positions and much more.

Enjoy and be on the lookout for upcoming episodes!

Would you believe that Mister Rogers once drove an electric car on an episode of Mister Rogers Neighborhood back in 1981?

Of course it was nothing like the electric cars we think of today such as the Tesla, Chevy Volt or Prius from Toyota, but it is still pretty interesting to see that people have been working to create these vehicles for decades now.

I also want to again take a moment to thank everyone for listening to the show, the recent growth of the past few months has been encouraging as it gives us some idea that our format tweaks are helping to create a better show.

But still, we would love to hear from you to see what are some of your likes & dislikes so we can keep future changes in mind.

Thanks!
