Quantity vs. Quality.  In this episode, the panel rifles through a whole host of topics but through it all runs the thread of quantity vs. quality.  Is a million impressions better than one or two really good ones?  First up on this week’s show, we take a look at location-based mobile apps as the world celebrates Foursquare Day.  Meanwhile, American Idol season is upon us and Brady, Ben and Holly can’t resist delving into some Idol talk (14:20).  Then it’s off to the Apple Store for an in-depth look at the iPad (22:12).  Later, Brady recaps his trip to SXSW (30:38) where mobile tagging is all the rage (33:05), Travis vents about Nike’s new Tiger Woods spot (38:28), Mike G. reveals his love of Old Spice (51:20) and Ben drops some praise on the new Gorillaz album, Plastic Beach (54:46).
