WTP 107: RoboCup 2006, The Pirate Bay, and Tracking Sturgeon

Tech Podcast #107 looks at the OTHER soccer tournament going in Germany, the 10th annual RoboCup! Robots of all shapes, sizes and nationalities are squaring off in Bremen for the next few days. The goal, so to speak, is a familiar one — put the ball in the back of the net. And, we’ll go to Sweden to hear about piracy. No, not on the high seas, but via a website called The Pirate Bay. And we’ll end with a fish story. Well, a story about some technologies being used to help track sturgeon in the Ural River. All that, plus theme music from Spunkshine.
