WTP 188: Al-Qaeda Targets Saudi Cell Phones, AfriGadget, and Yikes, a Global Beer Shortage.
Full line-up this week. We start with news that Al-Qaeda may be using cell phone memory cards to carry calls for cash into, and across, Saudi Arabia. Then, one bloggers quest to figure out what the world thinks about America. We'll also chat about solar cell phone chargers and Kenyan carvings of Simpsons characters with the folks at AfriGadget. And we'll finish off with desperate news: there may be a world wide shortage on two of the key ingredients for making beer. All that, plus a new way to support the Tech Podcast.
