This week we travel to Microsoft’s campus in San Francisco for Startup Weekend San Francisco. Startup Weekend recruits a highly motivated group of developers, business managers, startup enthusiasts, marketing gurus, graphic artists and more to a 54 hour event that builds communities, companies and projects. Founded in 2007 by Andrew Hyde, the weekend is a concept of a conference focusing on learning by creating. It is known for its quick decisions, ‘out of the box’ thinking (oh no, the buzzwords are attacking!), unique facilitation technique and letting the founders show what they can do. The program has already met with success in Boulder, Toronto, New York, Hamburg, Houston, West Lafayette, Boston, DC and more. In this episode we talk to Founder Andrew Hyde, and San Francisco Leader Tyler Willis.

In this episode of the Apple Universe Podcast, Sam Levin (@samlevin) from the Cool Mac Picks show joins us to talk about some Apple news!

News:

• Apple Announces New iPod shuffle
• Apple to Preview iPhone OS 3.0 on March 17th
• Apple Netbook Touchscreen Rumors Continue
• ‘Premium’ App Store Rumors Revived
• iTunes 8.1 Now Available
• Final Cut Studio Update Due in Late April?

Sam’s Cool Mac/App Pick of the week:

• LaCie iamaKey USB Flash Drive
• AirPhones (iTunes Link)

Review: MiMo Displays
A single USB connection from your computer gets you an instant secondary (tertiary, quaternary, quinary…) display. This awesome display is perfect for your IM client, your email, a spreadsheet, or your Photoshop tools. Not only do these displays enhance productivity, but they look great. The single USB connection combined with a weight of 1.3 pounds means these displays are ultra-portable. Overall, for the size and power, the MiMo is great for a IM window, or Twitter, but with a 24″ monitor at home in my case, I found it not very useful after the different compared to the 24″ monitor.

Don’t forget about Speck’s MacBook Air SeeThru discount!
