In Episode 3 of Yet Another Tech Podcast I take a look at some of the projects that Mozilla had endeavored to see through in the past and why they failed or got handed over to the community. Firefox OS of course is the the big project and eventually I'll tackle that by itself but for now, here's a good overview of some of the things that didn't make it past the chopping block.

In today's episode I take a look at sharing your live location on a regular basis and the ramifications that could come from doing so. This perspective is applied to Snapchat's new feature, Snap Maps, and how it's especially dangerous for the younger ones with free reign on the internet and in real life.
