OMG/JK: A Kiss For iPad 2, A Slap For Xoom
It’s war! This week, I went to the unveiling of the iPad 2 and got some hands-on time with the device afterwards. Meanwhile, Jason bought a Xoom and has been extensively testing it out. The consensus? iPad 2: Good. Xoom: Bad. At least for now. I haven’t extensively played with iPad 2 yet, and Google is undoubtedly going to patch the Xoom. But still, first impressions are key. Jason… Read More

OMG/JK: Where There Are Tablets, There's Love

So grab some chocolates, pull up a chair, and hold your laptop close as you sit back for this week’s show. This episode is all about tablets. From rumors about the iPad 2 (and 3!) to HP’s upcoming WebOS tablets, it’s been a big week. We also touch… Read More

OMG/JK: Apple Straight-Arms The Competition As Honeycomb Prepares For Kick-Off
It’s Super Bowl Sunday, which means there’s a decent chance you’re about to zone out in front of the television for the next several hours.

OMG/JK: Massive Google Fragments (And An iPod Nano Watch!)
This week’s episode of OMG/JK, the show I do on TechCrunch TV alongside Jason Kincaid, is all Google all the time. So just to even things out a bit, we kick things off by showing off my awesome new TikTok iPod nano wristwatch.

OMG/JK: Pushing Google's Nonexistent Buttons
Earlier this week we had a special episode of OMG/JK to mark the launch of the Verizon iPhone, but we’re already back for more. I know what you’re thinking: this may be the best week, ever.

OMG/JK: The Verizon iPhone And The End Of An Era
We’re approaching an end of an era. A time when MG Siegler, my cohost on OMG/JK, will no longer be forced to struggle with AT&T on a daily basis. Soon, he will be equipped with a phone that will actually be able to make phone calls. And Seth the Blogger Guy will be able to breathe a little easier. Because soon, MG — and millions of other people — will have the… Read More

OMG/JK: Shiny Hats And Crystal Balls
It’s time for a special New Years-themed edition of OMG/JK, and we’ve really gone all out with our costumes. From shiny hats to incredibly cheap kazoos, we’re ready to ring in 2011 with a bang.

OMG/JK: Gingerbread Has Never Tasted So Delicious
After a brief hiatus (MG was spreading the Apple gospel in Paris during Le Web), we’re back for the latest episode of OMG/JK. There’s been a lot of big news in the last couple weeks, so we had a lot to talk about. In this episode we give our first impressions of the Nexus S (MG still likes his iPhone, naturally).

OMG/JK: Mistletoe, AirPlay, And Other Forms Of Near Field Communication
It’s Black Friday, which means that many of you woke up this morning at the crack of dawn, shrugged off your Thanksgiving food comas, and made your way to the dreary parking lots of electronic stores across the country. Right about now, you’re probably just waking up from your recovery nap — and there’s nothing better to get your sluggish mind back on track than… Read More

OMG/JK: Yeah, I’ll Reciprocate Your Middle Finger
It’s been a busy week in the tech world: A new web browser wants to make your entire browsing experience more social. Google and Facebook are doing battle over contacts, openness, and reciprocity.

And have… Read More

OMG/JK: Attack Of The Anthropomorphized Smartphones!
It’s finally happened. MG’s love for all things Apple has manifested itself in physical form, and he now wears an iPhone to work every day. The doctors say we should try to make him feel like this is normal, so I’ve taken to donning a matching Android handset. Clashes are frequent — the hallway leading to TC HQ literally isn’t big enough for both of us, and the… Read More

We’re back with another episode of TechCrunch TV’s OMG/JK, the weekly show that features fellow TechCrunch writer MG Siegler and myself discussing the latest developments in tech news.

OMG/JK: Facebook Places Is Here. Let's Locate The Dead Bodies.
This week for OMG/JK, the show on TechCrunch TV that I do with fellow writer Jason Kincaid, we decided to switch things up a bit. Because there was a major announcement, Facebook Places, that we both covered, we decided to devote the entire show to that one topic. Yes, it’s a little longer than usual (about 20 minutes), but I think the conversation is pretty interesting and… Read More
