    Episode 1101

    Causes for Celebration
    The Daily Giz Wiz passed another milestone.  Last Friday it celebrated its 11th centenary for Episode 1100.  Dick has also received his Podcast Award, thanks to Todd Cochrane, for its win last year in the Comedy category, and so has Leo for TWiT Live and Munchcast.

    Colleen’s Alarm Clock Xtreme
    TWiT had a farewell party for Colleen last Friday.  Leo can’t remember much of it but he does remember that she and a friend wrote an alarm clock app for Android.  You shake the phone to get it into snooze mode, and the alarm will keep coming back until the phone detects that it’s moving at a preset minimum speed.  It’s called Alarm Clock Xtreme.  Leo promised to promote it but he kept forgetting.  That’s why Colleen left!

    Another Magic Wand
    Jeff Corgan from Pennsauken, New Jersey remembers the Docupen (Episode 1) but wants to write about the VuPoint Magic Wand from VuPoint Solutions, a portable scanner with impressive scan quality that works on Windows, Mac and Linux (which Jeff uses).  Apparently available soon on Bed, Bath and Beyond as well.
