Leo's quote: "Apple er lidt ligesom Mussolinis Italien"

Leo was recently quoted in an article on "Google vs. Apple" in the Danish publication Business.dk in an article:

"Som tech-journalisten Leo Laporte forleden udtalte i sin ugentlige podcast, This Week in Tech. »Apple er lidt ligesom Mussolinis Italien. Togene kører til tiden, men der foregår slemme ting."

It's crochet Leo Laporte and Dick DeBartolo

Howie Woo of WooWork.com created these great crochet figures of Leo and Dick DeBartolo to celebrate the 900th episode of The Daily Giz Wiz, recorded this last Tuesday and coming out next friday. I kept it secret from them until the recording. It's chock full of inside jokes about the show. There's the toothpick bird, Leo sitting on his blue stability ball, Dick sitting on a ball with his Giz Wiz logo on it, and the spork. Dick took his figurine back home with him, but the other three remain in the cottage.

Video from the GDGT launch party

Dane shot this video with gear set up by Colleen. But the best work was done by Erik (our very talented new rookie), who did the post production

Before there was a cottage, there was a farm

Here's a great old TechTV Screen Savers video of Leo and Sarah Lane testing the Wi-Fi at his farm with a bunch of sheep and some tractors.
