0:00-1:00 Welcome to the TWiST News Roundtable Panel!
1:00-4:00 With us today are Paige Craig, CEO of BetterWorks, and Keith Richman, CEO of Break Media.
4:00-6:45 Thank you to SurveyMonkey for sponsoring the show. Go to try.surveymonkey.com/twist for a free account!
6:45-10:30 First story: the launch of the Amazon Kindle Fire. Will the lower price tag be enough to draw people who want a consumption device? Keith, you have one, what do you think?
11:30-15:30 Jason: The Fire isn't better than the iPad, but it's a viable competitor. It will outsell the iPad two-to-one in the next year
16:00-17:45 Next story: senior Zynga director Owen Van Natta has resigned. What do you make of this happening so close to the big IPO?
19:45-20:45 Keith, how do you as an entrepreneur deal with this issue? What if it's a friend?
25:45-28:15 Thank you to MailChimp for sponsoring the show! Everyone tweet a thank you to @MailChimp!
28:15-32:30 Next story: Brad Garlinghouse of AOL is leaving the company. What do you think this says for AOL? And is it a bad idea to let a sales person run the business?
32:30-34:00 Sarah Lacy and Heather Harde have also left AOL. Will this have a significant impact on the company?
34:00-38:30 Next story: Congress has been hearing arguments for a bill called the Stop Online Piracy Act. Major companies like Tumblr, Mozilla and 4Chan have publicly come out in opposition of the bill. Do you think there's a chance that this will pass? Why isn't there a more powerful defense?
40:15-42:00 Jason: Don't you think that the music industry could just lower their overhead and still be wildly profitable businesses?
42:00-43:30 Next story: Google launched a music store this week poised to compete with Apple's music offerings on iTunes. Is this going to be a real challenger?
43:30-46:00 Keith, did you say no to a deal with YouTube?
46:00-47:15 Keith: I think that more people coming to the Web is just a boon for everyone.
47:15-50:30 Next story: Foursquare.com has been reimagined as a destination site, complete with time-sensitize recommendations. Are websites becoming sexy again? Will this gain traction?
51:30-53;30 Next story: Yelp has filed for an IPO at a $2B valuation. How will their stock fare?
53:30-56:00 Keith: Yelp should go at $10B, it's undervalued.
56:00-59:15 Next story: Facebook is also reportedly on the verge of filing for their IPO. Do you believe this rumor?
1:04:15-1:06:00 Keith, what are the decisions a founder needs to make when deciding between going public or staying private?
1:08:30-1:11:00 Last story: Microsoft is rumored to be starting their own social network called Socl. Should we take this seriously?
1:11:00-1:11:30 Keith: I would like to see Microsoft release something more like a Yammer across all office products.
1:11:30-1:12:30 Jason: Does anyone remember Microsoft's Bob?
1:15:00-1:18:00 Jason: I'd highly recommend that everyone check out Ranker.com. And Paige, I'm glad to hear that BetterWorks is doing so well. Keith, congrats on Break Media. If someone is an amazing developer, email [email protected].
