Sarah's On the Prowl: Yammer
Sarah shows off a cool, new and FREE Twitter-like microblogging tool for businesses called Yammer. It won top prize at this year's TechCrunch50, and it allows users of a company or organization to share status updates via Twitter-sized blurbs about work-related stuff (ask questions, share ideas, news, links)! It also helps keep some pressure off of your constantly inundated email inbox!
Death of the Album Cover with Moujan:
Is album cover art dead? It is to Moujan.
Take time to appreciate (bad) cover art at Bizarre Records.com.
Music with Heather: Muse
One of Heather's all-time top 10 favorite music groups is English rock band, Muse. Heather would seriously consider having lead singer Matthew Bellamy's babies and loves the following albums:
New Music:
Metallica - Death Magnetic
Emiliana Torrini - Me and Armini

Hi Guys,
I don't really know why, but I loved this weeks episode! I think it may have a little (ok, alot) to do with Moujie and Sarah's banter about "Joyce"!!!

I agree with the comment that the show needs to be more laid back. While I like the sleek look that PopSiren has it feels forced at times which can be quite off putting. Constantly reminding people to send in emails but none are referred to on the show, it almost feels as if it's just there to signify the end of a segment or even to just fill time. While I don't want PopSiren to turn into a female diggnation where it's all discussion, I think a bit of unscripted banter would be a great addition. I can't remember which show it was but I distinctly remember one of the post-Jessica episodes having more banter between you all and the show worked a lot better for it.
Understandably there are time and set constraints but I think it would be good to make use of the interviewing area for perhaps the music reviewing section. Maybe Sarah could join Heather and ask about the featured band rather than have a scripted segment that doesn't really fit with the show.
This is all nit picky stuff really, I've been enjoying the show so much more over the past few months or so since the new changes have sunk in.
Though I do miss Dr Kiki on the show, who doesn't!?

Actually, the show is too professional. If the audience (both guys and girls) felt like they were hanging out with the popSiren hosts, this show would be way more popular. That's why diggnation works.
Wow! Nathan you really summed up my feelings in a really nice way! I think that the past shows looked like they had so much fun this one felt like work :(.
I would like to see gadget, Magazine and Movie reviews (Not Netflix.. Like real movies that are out in the theater). Thoughts on the politics and current news.. On top of everything..
Also can we bring sexy back? All the hosts are soooo pretty but yet they dress like old women. :( Makeup is nice just complaining about the clothes..
OHHH!!! REV3 SARAH CAM!?!?!?!? Bring it back!! :)
Finlay,
I really enjoyed the live taping! It was great.. Felt like I was hanging out at the show! And Nathan hit it on the head! That's what might be missing. I would like some live interaction with us the fans on the show.. When Sarah answered one of my questions on IRC!!! I glowed for a whole week!!
I learned that Sarah is to be called "Ms. Lane" not Mrs. or Miss :)
Thank you for not being mad or angry with our comments! We really love you guys. Thank you for all the hard work you have been putting into the shows.
Thanks
Rene
