VentureBeat's What to Think Podcast: Episode 38
0Emerson Spartz is one of the world's leading experts on internet virality. He got his start at age 12, as the founder of MuggleNet, a Harry Potter fan site. Now 27, he's the CEO of Spartz Media, which says it is one of the fastest-growing digital media publishers with 160 million page views per month. We'll talk to him about the secrets of virality, the eternal tension between virality and journalism, and the future of content.
Plus, we'll tell you what to think about Microsoft's Windows 10 announcement, the latest antics from T-Mobile CEO John Legere, and the coming year in health gadgets.

Join us for a lively discussion of the week's biggest tech headlines, with intelligent and entertaining co-hosts and a distinguished (and surprising!) roster of guests. Each week's podcast will have two parts, designed to give you the tech news you need to know — plus informative context and new ideas — with a minimum of BS. First, we'll give you the top trends and headlines in the first 3-5 minutes. After that, we'll have a focused, intelligent, rapid-fire conversation with a different guest each week. Each podcast will be 20 to 30 minutes — just perfect for your commute. Or, if you don't have time for the whole thing, you'll be able to get the lowdown in 5 or less. Either way, What to Think is the tech news podcast that stands out by being smarter, funnier, and more to the point than those other bloviating talk shows.
