The new website of ESET (April 2013).  This site contains a variety of expert opinions, white papers and research.  Regular short podcasts are most informative.

Not that good.

"A regular podcast from Dai Barnes and Doug Belshaw about education, technology, and everything in between"

May well be a replacement for Ed Tech Crew. Open, forward thinking and casual in manner, definitely worth a listen.

Katrina Schwartz and Ki Sung at MindShift started a podcast titled "Stories Teachers Share". It highlightst the many varied and interesting work teachers do daily. It gives teachers the opportunity to help the larger community better understand what it really means to be a teacher.

"This week on Tech Weekly with games editor Keith Stuart we take a look at an emerging trend in games, where smartphones and cutting-edge robotics are used to create more socially inclusive and dynamic games. Joining Keith is Guardian writer Alex Hern; Iain Simons, director of the GameCity festival; and Jonathan Smith, games producer for Lego. The panel discuss why the screen is only a part of the gaming experience - and why small-scale, cheap robotics will open up a new world for developers. Also this week: Guardian tech writer Samuel Gibbs meets Ian Bernstein, co-creator of the robotic toy ball the Sphero, to find out about the evolution of the robot in gaming."

Interesting discussion about the future of gaming beyond 'the screen'.

An interview with Clive Thompson about his book 'Smarter Than You Think You Are' in which he situates some of the changes in technology within history.
