Unless you spend every moment of every day with a friend, don’t ask him/her about wireless carrier coverage. It’s a very personal issue, depending on where you live, work, play and travel. The panel will share their experiences with apps, maps and service worldwide.
Randy Weinberger joins to talk about what they’re up to at Icehook.
At the end of the discussion, we talked briefly about an Android carrier signal evaluation tool called Network Cell Info Lite. The free version has ads, but for less than $2, you can remove these. There is also a pro (not “lite”) version for a few bucks.
Nir Simionovich and Eric Klein of Greenfield.tech join regulars James Body, who somehow was back in the UK, Corrado Mella, Andy Smith and Michael Graves.
If you’ve ever entered your pin number into your telephone banking account, you’ve probably heard the voice of Allison Smith guiding you through the call. If you’ve participated in a telephone survey, most likely it was Allison’s voice that encouraged you to rate your satisfaction. Ever signed onto a conference call, listened to the public airwaves, took an online training module, or received an automated phone reminder for an upcoming medical or dental appointment? You’ve probably heard voice talent Allison. She’s even been that voice that reminds you to take your ticket at the parking garage.
