3:00-8:30 Introduction of guests.
8:30-10:30 Ad for MailChimp.
10:30-13:30 Facebook deals launches in five cities. Does Facebook have enough juice to be a legitimate Groupon or Living Social killer or will it have to settle for coexistence?
13:30-17:15 Why is it that Facebook can knock off any startups in 60 days when Google, Microsoft and others, cannot?

21:30-22:00 How long is the board of Facebook willing to ignore the swelling back channel?

28:00-33:15 It was reported this week that Apple's iPhones are tracking users' locations. They say they're only keeping it for seven days, but why seven days? Why not one day or one hour?
33:15-34:30 Why are they storing the signal strength of all these recorded access points?
34:30-36:45 The problem with Apple as a company: Because they're so revered they feel like they should get a pass on everything. This feels like such a big mistake that they may need to pay a price for it in some way.

48:15-49:00 Lon: To say that writers might not be inclined to play favorites...? These things happen.
49:00-49:30 Would a writer kill the story if it reflected negatively on their boss's investments?
49:30-52:00 Tyler, what are your thoughts about the appearance of a conflict of interest? (Watch the clip.)
52:00-52:30 Brian: It's naive to think that even in the mainstream press there's no conflict of interest.

54:15-54:45 The State of the Internet Report: Things are getting faster.
54:45-56:45 Firefox's awesome bar. Firefox got all its revenue through Google, does this mean Mozilla is trying to compete with them? Thoughts, Brian?
