Literally. He had the first ride in the first Tesla. Siri was launched in his house. He's been the first to share all sorts of technologies and companies with you, from Flipboard to Pandora to Instagram. Today he's focusing on mixed reality, AKA "next-generation augmented reality" which will include a new user interface for EVERYTHING in your life (IoT, Smart Cities, driverless cars, robots, drones, etc). That's based on his view thanks to his past experience as futurist at Rackspace. Best place to find Scoble? On his Facebook profile at https://www.facebook.com/RobertScoble He has been a technology blogger since 2000, was one of five people who built Microsoft's Channel 9 video blog/community, worked at Fast Company Magazine running its TV efforts, and has been part of technology media businesses since 1993. ++++++++ SPEAKER PITCH: Apple and Facebook now have revealed their Augmented Reality strategies, which means your business needs one too. Rely on Robert Scoble, the world's top authority on AR, to bring to your conference what businesses should do next. SPEECH ABSTRACT #1: TITLE: The Fourth Transformation: What's next in mixed reality (AR and AI) and the future of technology? Here's an example of this talk at Leade.rs in Paris in April, 2017: https://youtu.be/52_0JshgjXI Why "the Fourth Transformation?" Soon we will have phones and glasses that do full on augmented reality. Everything you look at will potentially be augmented. This world is coming in late 2017 with a new iPhone from Apple, amongst other products. Microsoft is betting everything on its HoloLens glasses that do mixed reality and the industry is spending many billions of dollars in R&D and funding new companies like Magic Leap. This future will be the user interface for IoT, Smart Cities, autonomous cars, robots, drones, and your TV. This is a big deal and Robert will take you through what mixed reality is and how it will change every business. Learn more about Robert's speaking style and contact his agent at http://odemanagement.com/robert-scoble/Robert-Scoble.html ++++++++ SPEECH ABSTRACT #2: "The Next Two Clicks of Moore's Law." Over the next four years, or two clicks of Moore's Law, a ton about our technology world will change. Scoble will bring you the best from his travels visiting R&D labs, startups, and innovators around the world. He views the world through his rose-colored-mixed-reality glasses, which will be the new user interface for self driving cars, Smart Cities, IoT, and many other things in our world. He'll send you off with some lessons for companies both large and small. ++++++++ SPEECH ABSTRACT #3: "Personalized Meaning: What is Augmented Reality For?" As we enter a far more technological world where even cars drive themselves, I predict we'll see a blowback toward the analog, more authentic world. What role does augmented reality play in both worlds? Get Scoble's insight into where augmented reality is going, see tons of real-world demos, and understand what he means by 'personalized meaning.'

I consume podcasts all the time and I rarely go to the companies site. I get the content from iTunes. My collegue sent me this link. Thanks. I’m in technology and most of the podcasts sites don’t have good content. PodTech is the only one with quality content. I rareley go to odeo and don’t have time to use their product. To me comedy podcasts like TWIT and professional ones like PodTech add the most value. Although the PodTEch podcast on Paris Hilton/Youtube was funny. For video I don’t use my ipod but my kids do.

Interesting posting by Ev, really helpful except for one thing: the so called Statistics by Alexa.
He makes some adjustments but unless everybody is using it, this is a reason to toss away the results at once.
It is only preferring a certain browser usage, it is preferred by the english speaking audience – hell Technorati has a better ranking mechanism like that and we know about the hickups with that.
*sigh* it devalues his work on that completely.

Wow, in the online chat I suggested you use the Scoble brand which is bigger than the PodTech brand. Here’s support for that from Alexa – check out that HUGE spike when you jumped the HMS Microsoft Ship.

I agree with Ducan, this can’t be taken seriously if the dude forgets to put in the first Comerial Podcast network, TPN. Seeing it is alledged that your first podcast was on TPN, I thought you would have pointed that Robert!
