Curioso. Eu nunca ouvi falar de Chumby antes, até hoje o último podcast TWiT . A parte da transcrição que eu acho que resume:
Veronica Belmont: I’ve got to say though, Google Voice is really nice when you are testing a lot of different phones at the same time.
Leo Laporte: That’s what I use it for.
Molly Wood: Yeah, I’m sure.
Veronica Belmont: Instead of having give people different numbers.
Molly Wood: Again, for a few small populations.
Leo Laporte: That’s the echo chamber right there. For those of us who have eight different cellphones, there’s nothing like Google Voice.
Molly Wood: For those of us who have review units raining out of the sky.
Leo Laporte: My gosh Google Voice. But, you know, I often wondered if it wouldn’t be smart for somebody to design a product that would just like make Walt Mossberg so happy that he’d just jump up and down and David Pogue and Ed Baig, all the big reviewers and Ryan Block and Veronica and Molly and everyone goes, oh this is the best thing ever, even though it has no usefulness for anybody else, wouldn’t it be a success because everybody says well I’ll have to – I got to have that.
Maybe that’s what Twitter was.
Veronica Belmont: Maybe.
Leo Laporte: I think that’s what Twitter is actually.
Molly Wood: I think that, you know what I think that product is, Chumby.
Leo Laporte: Chumby, definitely.
Veronica Belmont: I still want one, I don’t know why.
Molly Wood: I want one so bad.
