        • Tech News Today 1483: Canary in the Coal Mine

          It's an All About Android cast takeover with Florence Ion and Ron Richards joining Jason Howell on the show. Thankfully, there's very little Android news to report, including the reveal of the Tesla Model 3. Also, Google is known for its April Fools' Day jokes, but the inclusion of a special button that mutes incoming replies and sends a sassy animated GIF to recipients did a lot worse than simply making people laugh. Also, Sam Machkovech from Ars Technica shows us how he feels about Nintendo's social network, Miitomo.
