What did we learn on today's programme?
- Somebody at 'Da U tripped over a very important ethernet cable today
- A company is working on a cellphone app that will convert spoken words into text mesages in order to avoid being distracted by typing on the keyboard. I've got a better idea: why don't you just, you know, call the person? Phones can do that now. Amazing, isn't it?
