Chris 'Crispy' Lloyd of Dragon*Con TV

This week, The Drill Down Crew welcome Dragon*Con TV‘s Chris ‘Crispy’ Lloyd, who talks about his upcoming involvement in Dragon*Con, and shares with us his latest video, Vaderex. Later we discuss Leo Laporte’s cautionary disenchantment with social media, accusations of rape leveled against WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, Intel’s recent purchase of McAfee, reactions to the new Digg version 4, Portal 2′s release date (and cast!), and the most inspired viral marketing stunt since Old Spice on YouTube.

I think we should stage a new revolution similar to the HD DVD Key revolution a few years ago. We should all submit and Digg stories demanding drastic changes to Version 4 or a revert to Version 3. This is the only way they will listen to us. I nominate MrBabyMan to lead the revolution – he’s the people’s voice right now. LETS DO IT

I’m still listening to the stuff about Digg, and I’m hugely interested because I actually run a Digg4-like site that doesn’t have many of the same issues that Digg does — we actually allow people to look at someone’s feed, for instance!

We also don’t “bump” things that are recently liked (as was mentioned on the show).

Hoping you and your viewers will check out quippd: http://quippd.com — I would love to chat on TDD as well!
