The 404 Podcast 476: Where we all Cyber on Monday

by Talk about Deal on Nov.30, 2009, under Review

If you’re still cursing yourself for sleeping through Black Friday, you can still indulge your inner cheapskate today on Cyber Monday! No, it’s not what you’re thinking, dirty birdy- Cyber Monday is the first Monday after Thanksgiving when all the vendors come together to tempt you with online deals and take whatever coins are left in your bank account.

Since it’s our first day back, we take the first half to update each other on our holiday festivities: Jeff visited the Norman Rockwell Museum, Justin is missing an arm after shooting guns in the Garden State, and Wilson stuffed himself silly with a batch of be-deviled eggs. I also suffered through Twilight: New Moon and Ninja Assassin over the weekend as well. Which movie deserves the award for least entertaining flick of the year? Check out our full review!

And speaking of Cyber Monday, Wilson digs up a controversial story about an “Adult-only” app arriving on the Android marketplace. The steamy app is pseudo-cleverly called “MiKandi” and according to Phandroid, the app only works with the Android. Sorry, iPhone users, that Web browser will have to do.

We’re super excited to be back and ready to tackle the rest of 2009 with more giveaways, surprise guests, and a series of year-end wrap up episodes coming your way, so don’t miss an episode of CNET’s The 404 Podcast.
