I think we should just play all of the submissions we got, and pick one. Maybe Dave can pick the winner! Also, CafeNinja should get an honorable mention.

Hello,

in your last show you talked about google and using a lot of their services. A few people are worried about that (including me), but for some of their services there are good alternatives.

Since a few month now, I am using Tiny Tiny RSS instead of Google Reader for my rss feeds. It's a great app, easy to install on your own server and nice to use.

Hi guys
It is me again with some more stuff for you to ponder from websites around the world.

Here is a link that may be of interest:

Microsoft might be betting big on Windows 7, the next version of its flagship operating system, but to Ubuntu Linux founder Mark Shuttleworth, the upcoming release is really an opportunity for Linux to shine.
