MC2 Post 1294 151 This Week in Google -- From Paying with NFC to Going Postal





===================================

A Very Good Podcast

NETCAST

===================================
From Leo Laporte's Stable of Very Good  NETCASTS

Leo Hates the Name Podcast.
===================================



From:  http://twit.tv





Jeff Jarvis was in Washington DC's  US Postal Service conference. 
He was invited because one of the organizers read his Book: 
What Would Google Do.  As You are probably aware, the 
USPS is having money problems, such that the Postmaster
General was quoted as comparing the Postal Service to
Greece...

There was also a pretty good discussion about NFC
and Apple's version of  "How to Pay for Things"
with a Slick App on the New IOS 6.

The Question becomes Who Do We Really Trust 


To be Able to Pay for Things from our Smart Phones:

FROM:  Apple, Google, Amazon, or Windows?

We Sure DON'T Want the Credit Cards 


Controlling THAT TOO !!!
