Gillmor Gang: London Calling

The Gillmor Gang — Robert Scoble, Dan Farber, Kevin Marks, John Taschek, and Steve Gillmor — killed some time waiting for NBC to let us watch the Olympics on our tablets and phones like the rest of the world. @dbfarber isn't ready to write off Microsoft, but I can't help wondering why Steve Sinofsky was content to duck a journalist's question about the Windows Surface's impact on hardware partners by pushing him toward the tablet with the suggestion he go learn something.

With a week of Google Nexus 7 under our belts, a rumored deal between Apple and Twitter, and Mitt Money on his Insult Europe Tour '12, we're entering some good times as the world melts. Bring on the fiber; Kansas City here I come.
