Om and Niall PodSession: Om Malik promises a "big surprise" at the end of the latest episode. OMG MAJOR SPOILER WARNING: Google News picked up Om's blog. Yay. Weird thing is, he thanks the Google News and Blogger teams. Actual people update Google News sources? Don't they have robots for that?

This Week in Tech: A woman on the panel! And Kevin Rose! But it's still like a very watered-down Diggnation. If you need to eat your tech veggies, go ahead. You'll learn something.

Diggnation: None this week, but last week's is worth another listen. Kevin Rose and Alex Albrecht moved the beer drinking to before the show — best move ever.
