In this episode of TalkingPointz Chatz, Dave Michels and David Danto unpack a series of “sea changes” sweeping across tech and communications. They start by examining how AI engines are replacing traditional search tools, reshaping how users find information. The conversation shifts to LinkedIn's emergence as the dominant professional social platform in the wake of Twitter's decline. Most notably, they dive into the evolution of meeting room technology – from proprietary video appliances to streamlined BYOD/BYOM setups – and highlight the manufacturers that are embracing this shift, including Barco, Jabra, Logitech, and others. It's a fast-paced, thoughtful look at how user habits and enterprise tools are adapting in real time.

Joe Chatz of On Tap Sports Net joins LT on the podcast this week! In their first match since the dismissal of Lorne Donaldson as head coach, the Chicago Stars have earned a point against one of the better teams in the league, Gotham FC. An impressive defensive display against one of the best offenses in the league is what held Chicago to the end, but another poor attacking effort looms over the club's future. LT and Joe Chatz share their thoughts on the firing of Donaldson, what the club changed under Masaki Hemmi as interim head coach, and how this club could improve offensively in the coming weeks.

Microsoft has a new operating system, it's based on open source Android, will appear first in Teams meeting rooms, and it's called MDEP. The latest TalkingHeadz podcast has Dave Michels and David Danto chatting with with Microsoft's Ilya Bukshteyn exploring the Microsoft Device Ecosystem Platform (MDEP.) This will be a customized Android distribution aimed at enhancing device interoperability and security through centralized updates and rigorous standards. It addresses challenges like inconsistent Android versions across OEMs, emphasizing long-term benefits such as improved stability and reduced maintenance. While MDEP is poised to become integral to Microsoft Teams device certification, ensuring a cohesive ecosystem for users and partners alike, it has questions and challenges. These include some confusing aspects and some industry reluctance. These factors - both exciting and challenging - are thoroughly explored in this extensive conversation.
