Technology IQ LIVE via TalkShoe

There's a new place for LIVE talk shows on the net and after seeing the success of a fellow Friends in Tech Member, Victor Cajiao of the Typical Mac User podcast, I figured I would try it. So, now you can join me for the next edition of Technology IQ LIVE!

Technology IQ is a talk show about technology, including, but not limited to computers, home appliances, cell phones and any other technology you might encounter during your day. Join the discussion and ask your most pressing questions LIVE. The show will also be available as a podcast -- meaning you can still receive it automatically, even if you can't attend.

If you ever attended one of my computer classes at the Sherman Oaks Branch of the Los Angeles Public Library, this show will be along the same question and answer format but the topics will be more varied.

The first episode of Technology IQ is scheduled for Wednesday, December 6, 2006 @ 6PM PST, before the Christmas holiday, so you can get some great advice for all those holiday purchases. Please let me know what days and times would be best for you for future shows. We will have a national audience, but I want to include as many of my clients and past students in the mix, as possible.
