0:00-1:30 It's our news Roundtable Friday.
1:45-3:00 Welcome to Dave Mathews, the founder of NeuAer.
3:00-4:00 Brian Alvey on the line from NYC.
4:00-4:15 Also with us is Kirin Kalia, the managing editor of LAUNCH.
4:15-6:30 Thank you to MailChimp for sponsoring the show.
6:30-7:00 First story: Airbnb goes into damage control mode after vandalism. (See the full story on LAUNCH at http://launch.is/blog/airbnb-confirms-insurance-in-case-your-pad-gets-trashed.html)
7:00-7:45 Is this bad or a good opportunity for Airbnb, Brian?
12:00-13:00 Next story: Brands you follow on Twitter will now take top placement with their tweets. Will this make Twitter a significant amount of money?
13:00-15:00 Why did this take Twitter so long? What do you think, Brian?
17:00-20:15 Kirin: Do they use the same algorithm for brand pages and personal pages on Facebook?
20:15-21:00 Next story: AT&T is going to limit data rates to improve the performance of their network.
23:00-24:00 Why don't they roll out high speed Wifi everywhere?
25:15-25:45 Kirin: Why are we behind in the US in wireless infrastructure?
25:45-27:30 Jason's idea for a startup: Community, demand-based fiber.
27:30-30:00 Thank you to Carbonite for sponsoring the show. Everyone go to Carbonite.com.
30:00-32:00 Next story: Spotify has already been sued for patent infringement. What is wrong with our system?
36:15-36:45 And the patent is good for 20 years from the filing so they can shake people down until April of 2015?
37:30-40:00 Next story: Google and Facebook have ramped up lobbying efforts. Is the amount they're spending significant?
40:00-42:00 Any thoughts on why they're spending this money? Is it all about relationship building, Brian?
42:00-43:30 Next story: Google has launched an experimental hotel finder (see it at google.com/hotelfinder). What does this mean for other hotel deal sites?
47:15-50:00 Next story: Expedia and Groupon see almost a near sell-out of their first travel deal offerings. What's next for Groupon in terms of partnerships?
50:00-51:45 Brian: It's like buying traffic for a person who comes to a website once and then bounces.
51:45-53:30 Next story: Mark Suster said in a Business Insider interview that the VCs who are saying "no bubble" publicly are privately admitting that there is one. So what should we believe--bubble or no?
53:30-55:15 When Microsoft valued Facebook at $10B and then it went to $20-30B, that's when everyone realized things were getting ridiculous.
57:30-58:30 What are you thinking as an entrepreneur? When are you going to raise another round, Brian?
59:30-1:01:00 Next story: Apple ditches the DVD drive in the new Mac mini. Was this premature?
1:01:00-1:02:00 Jason: It's like a hot girlfriend who always insists on ordering the special.
1:02:00-1:04:00 Next story: A tweet from a DJ shuts down an LA street when 1000 people show up for a party. How dumb was that?
1:05:15-1:06:00 Last story: The Google Logitech TV Revue price has now dropped to $99. What happened here?
1:06:00-1:07:00 Jason explains what Google should have done when releasing this device.
