Ep 76 – The Software Story

In this episode, we have Matthew Bischoff of Quotebook and The New York Times back on the show. We catch up a bit on what he is up to these days but I mainly wanted to engage him in a thought train that I have been on for a little while. That being, the idea that software tells a story. Sometimes intentionally. Sometimes unintentionally. But, always, there is a story being told. He is a great guest and it is an interesting discussion.

He also was kind enough to supply me with the most epic set of links I think we have had for any show to date...
