Show Website: http://www.edlisten.com/ & Google+ Community

Description:
A great episode with +Bharath Madhusudan from http://www.securly.com/.  I was one of the very first users of Securly and very happy to have Bharath on the show.   Securly is one of the only solutions that integrates with Google Apps instead of Active Directory, which makes it much easier to set policies and reporting for Chromebooks, iPads, and tablets.

In this episode we talked about content filtering in general and tried to defunct some of the misconceptions end-users have about how it is managed.

Note: This was recorded over Thanksgiving break so I was at home locked in my daughters room (oddly it was the only quite place in the house).  I didn't have my nice mic so the audio is much different than normal, however I am very excited about Movenote and did not want to postpone the interview.

Description:
Hanging out with +Sini Hyytiäinen from http://www.movenote.com.  Talking about their really cool presentation tool.  Near the end Sini does a visual demo so I have included the YouTube link.
