We’re joined today by Cheezburger CEO Ben Huh, who’s trying to get Brian Tong to love cats. Also, we dissect Facebook’s new attempt at a universal inbox: it’s email, but not really email, and there’s some stuff you’re probably going to want to opt out of. As usual. Also, previewing Apple’s “unforgettable” iTunes announcement tomorrow, and why did Netflix delay its Android app? –Molly

“So the last couple months I’ve been distracted from my podcast watching by the fact that the Audible.com app is finally available in the Android Market, and have been rushing to get caught up. I just saw the show where you were discussing People hacking the Kinect hardware, and it occurs to me that Call of Duty: Black Ops has a radio-controlled car with a video camera and microphone in the Prestige edition. Now, not only is that thing begging to be hacked for some sort of wifi remote surveillance, but coupled with hacked Kinect hardware? Could it actually single out individual people and follow them around autonomously? CREEPY!

“Hellooo, Buzz Crew!
I was listening to you guys talking about this super special attack relaunch of the Kin phone from Verizon and I had THE BEST IDEA.
What if Verizon tried to get data-addicted, blog-crazy suckers (like me) who do not have and do not want a cellphone to buy a Kin phone and then baited us with their “”Beyond Talk”” 25 dollar a month unlimited text and data plan?
The one that only has 300 actual talking minutes?
Not gonna lie, I would be all over that a drunk B-Tong on a karaoke bar. I cannot be the only one!
LTS,
