Lifehacker Podcast

Lifehacker provides a great service. It is a service that gives all kinds of valuable information on many subjects with the purpose of helping us live a better life. Some of the Lifehacker employees have received permission to use the Lifehacker brand to do a life show on Google+ that is also made available as an audio podcast, evidently. Should you listen to the show? I enjoy it but find myself groaning and reaching to fast forward the show at times. First, a look at the good stuff. I always learn about computers and the Internet and smartphones from the show. I am thinking seriously about building my own desktop PC after listening to the show for several months. I think I will definitely buy a cable modem after listening to what the guys had to say. For guys that are in their mid- to late 20s they definitely know their stuff. But then, there is the other side. They are guys in their mid- to late 20s and the humor gets to be too much. For some reason, the conversation centers on defecation. Obviously one of the hosts is pre-occupied with potty habits. If you can put up with the often too-childish humor, you can learn much. But too often it takes some wading to get through the obnoxious conversation.
