Wiki Weapon [Podcast #45]

Brought to you by Blacknight, it’s the technology.ie podcast with Michele and Conn.  Our guest this week is Patrick Donaldson, Registrar Liaison with ICM Registry, the company behind the XXX domain extension who’ve just launched a new search service.  We discuss that – and also Metacert’s new Child Safe Browser.  A new report says the Irish langauge is at risk of “Digital Extinction” and Apple says sorry for screwing up maps.

App.net drops their prices and Blacknight drops .ie in favour of .co for the Getting Business Online campaign.

We discuss social media in US politics and the Wall of Tweets being used for the presidential debate.  3D printing leads to the Wiki Weapon and The Oatmeal’s campaign to honour Nikola Tesla breaks crowdfunding records on IndieGoGo.

Technology.ie is brought to you by Blacknight, Ireland’s largest provider of domains and hosting, inviting you to fly the Irish flag, with a special offer on .ie domains when you buy one of their hosting plans.
