Brought to you by Blacknight, it’s The Technology.ie Podcast, Episode 8, with Conn Ó Muíneacháin and Michele Neylon. Our guest this week is Andraz Tori, CTO of Zemanta.

Facebook settles with the FTC regarding privacy, and it’s expected to stage an IPO next year. Zynga launches its IPO campaign next week, but can they take any encouragement from the recent experiences of Groupon and LinkedIn.

US authorities mark Cyber Monday, by seizing the domains of 150 sites trading in counterfeit goods.

Connemara Councillor Clueless on Cloud Computing? No, it’s a fake story, but entertaining all the same.

Our guest Andraz Tori tells us about his company Zemanta. They provide a tool which analyses what someone is typing and suggests links and images which the writer may choose to use in their article or blog post. (We use it on technology.ie, and we’ve talked about them before.)

Nice to hear a Slovenian on your show, just since my wife is from there.

Since there’s a good bit of linguistics on the show, I thought I’d try to point to the pronunciation of Andraž. That last “ž” is something like the “ge” in how an American would pronounce “garage”.
