AwesomeCast 342: Internet of the Brain
Sorg and Chilla are joined by Kenny Chen of Ascender for AwesomeCast 342 talking about awesome things in technology, including:
- Kenny is telling us about what he does at Ascender. Cool guy doing cool things.

- p.s. Want to check out what’s new in Samsung? They have a huge announcement TOMORROW.
- Show of hands: Who carries both an iPhone and Android device for one reason or another?
- Sorg is getting stalkerish with his friends. Google Maps location sharing will make it easier.
- We’ve talked about XPrize previously. Kenny is sharing Qualcomm Tricorder XPrize as his Awesome Thing of the Week.
- What kind of geeks would we be if we didn’t mention Elon Musk and his neuralink?
- Neuralink: It’s like IoT and the Internet of the Brain.
- Donating computer resources is still a thing – just like it was in 1995.
