It’s a short week, what with July 4th on Tuesday. There’s a few podcasts below and bit less than a handful of links.
Podcasts
Without advertising, there would be no capitalism, and, if you’re not constantly afraid of the DoJ knocking at your door, you’re probably doing it wrong. Those are two whacky theories about advertising and antitrust, at least. With Matt Ray on vacation, Brandon and Coté talk about The Attention Merchants and the recent Google EU antitrust ruling. We also discuss several other books, and how to talk to non-tech people at parties. Surprisingly, no container talk!
Cloud Foundry for operations staff can seem a bit of a black box. Lucky for you, Duncan Winn’s new book, Cloud Foundry: The Definitive Guide is freshly out, making that box much more clear. We talk with Duncan about his new book, giving an overview of the book, who it’s for, and delving into some of the contents like BOSH.

A webinar from IDC on China’s IT market. Heavy on tops-down economic trends and such, but probably a good enough overview of the state of “business” for arm-chair IT concerns.
