TechTalk with Nexa April 13, 2015

It is TECHTALK time and that means that Andrew Thomas from DigitalNexa.com joins me to talk about the tech we should have on our minds.

This week we reviewed a Microsoft Surface Pro 3, loved it.

We had a good chat about it.

We also took a nice look at why we all need to go to SXSW.

And in the middle of the mix we looked at 2 new streaming video services that all work off the Twitter platform.

And we had a little chat about the iPhone6 that Andrew just bought.

Here are the show notes and links so you can go and get a look at all the things we spoke about.

And the podcast so you can follow along.

Is this a computer or laptop? It is a surface!
