 Toolmakers Forum Genre: Technology, Design, Social Media Crit Release Schedule: Bi-weekly-ish on Wednesdays (usually) RSS Feed | iTunes | Twitter | Newsletter Toolmakers Forum is a podcast about tools & the people who make them. More specifically, it's a podcast where the lead developers of the Felt Co-Op (me & my biz partner) analyze & discuss the current state of affairs in social tooling & media from the lens of both users & developers. Basically if you spend way to much time online & then want to spend more time thinking about how to make things less poo poo, this podcast is for you. We do also occasionally discuss the open-source software platform we're building to try and address some of the critiques we're developing of the modern tooling landscape.
