This week's podcast featuring a Canadian look at the week in technology features Financial Post reporters Mark Evans and Kevin Restivo. This week, we look at:
1. The future of Nortel Networks in the wake of Siemens and Nokia combining their carrier network equipment divisions.
2. Vonage and its ongoing post-IPO troubles
3. Bill Gates' decision to step down as chief software architect so he can focus on being chairman and how to give away billions of dollars to charity.

Enjoy!

I recently had a chance to do a podcast with Bill St. Arnaud, senior director of advanced networks with CANARIE, a federally-supported not-for-profit company with a mandate to promote the widespread adoption of next-generation high-speed networks in Canada - sort of our version of Internet 2. Among some of the things we touched upon were some interesting high-speed projects happening in Sweden, including one that involves consumers buying a 100mbps "last mile" connection, as well as developments in Canada's high-speed market.

This weekly podcast, featuring the National Post's Mark Evans and Kevin Restivo, focuses on:
1. why Nortel CEO Mike Zafirovski is so darn bullish
2. Google Spreadsheets - Microsoft killer or just another online service
3. the Blackberry's launch in Japan. Will Canada's flagship technology product score with the wireless-crazed Japanese?
