Podcast: March 6, 2010

March certainly has come in like a lamb, at least in terms of the weather, but it has been a busy season for computer techs like Ed Rudel and Cal Carson who have tales to tell of battling viruses that have tried to take over computers.  Join Foster Braun and Gary Baker as we talk about some of the common infections that are paralyzing people’s computers and ways of both fixing the problems and preventing them.

The economic crisis in the State of Michigan is not unlike the challenges facing both business and government today. Reduced budgets. Scarce resources. The need for economic transformation.Michigan State University is addressing this challenge head-on by leveraging a significant, yet largely untapped asset: its people.  Kim Patrick Kobza CEO of INgage Networks’ and Dr. Cliff Lampe of MSU explain how INgage Networks’ enterprise social software will enable MSU to connect the brilliant minds across the state – online – to jointly develop new ideas and solutions.

Big Red, Erik Anderson, has his Mac Minute ready to keep us on the cutting edge of all things Apple.
