SMRpodcast #123: Chicken Wings and Beer Part 5

June 27, 2012 by Robb Dunewood Leave a Comment

It’s another Chicken Wings and Beer episode of the 123rd installment of the SMRpodcast. Rod is on vacation, but, Chris and Robb hold it down and discuss a lot of Windows Phone 8, Google I/O, and RIM possibly splitting into two divisions.

We also debate why or why not developers decide to create Windows Phone Apps, talk about SwiftKey 3, and, talk about the updated Facebook Messenger for both iOS and Android. We’ve got all this and more in episode #123 of the SMRpodcast…
