This week we're joined by Corinne Iozzio, who gives us the lowdown on a range of wonderful gadgets that are readily available--just not here. Then Dan proposes age limits on social networking sites such as Facebook and MySpace--and as usual, gets argued with. And we dial in Jen's "lovah" Eric, who details the travails the two of them had trying to run Ubuntu on their home machine (call them Windows re-converts).

In the second half of the show, Terrifying Tim Gideon stops by to scare us with a PC Magazine Labs ghost story--and it's all truuuuuue! And Brian Heater talks about what technology companies are doing to help the people affected by the California wildfires.

Of course, we also have Brian's Hot Five in Five--the top tech news of the week, delivered at lightning-fast speed. And Jen's Weird Gear this week is perfect for masochistic FPS fans. Tune in and check it out.
