047: I Love Me A Home Row!

Jason takes us on a wonderful tour of tech history and critique, covering the home row, mobile devices and ringtones (yes, ringtones). Meanwhile, Andrew completes his media-consumption homework and for part of it (hint: The Matrix franchise) Martin sighs a lot.

WARNING: Media Corner contains spoilers for The Matrix films, so skip this chapter in your podcast player if you wish to avoid these.
