Today I share my favorite jailbroken apps and how to safely jailbreak your iphone. Backup is key!

It is VERY IMPORTANT that you make a special backup of your iPhone before you try a “JailBreak”.  In case something bad happens or you change your mind afterwards you can always restore the old backup.  

iTunes does not remember historical backups so there is a cool trick you can use for this one-time backup.  Follow the instructions in this blog post and you’re golden:

When you’re ready to do your JailBreak, then open this link on your iPhone and follow the instructions: JailBreakMe.com

MRNetcast is a proud member of the TechPodcasts.com network (TPN), “If it’s tech, its here!”, where podcasters and listeners come together.

Today presenting Kevin Cullis, author of “How to start a business: Mac Version”.

Today Kevin shares his experience on how he went by writing, publishing, and marketing his excellent new book.  More importantly, Kevin tells us why YOU should read the book so that you can align yourself towards being successful with your business.

I have wanted to have Kevin on the show for a while and finally the opportunity presented itself.  I met Kevin at a Podcaster meetup in Colorado.  That meeting peaked my interest.  I started reading his book and that’s when I knew I had to get him on the show.

Kevin has been using Macs since 1985 so he knows what he’s talking about.  If you want to start a business, then read his book and then get a Mac.  You should visit his blog: MacGetIt.com (get it?), if not to buy his book to read his great articles and check out his book list.  I found many of my personal favorites in that list.

If you want to get smarter then get his book today by visiting: http://www.macgetit.com/my-book-how-to-start-a-business-mac-version/

You can get in touch with Kevin by visiting MacGetIt.com

Today’s turkey: I said that SuSe comes from Sweden, ha, ha.  Of course it doesn’t!  It’s from Germany.  I don’t know what I was thinking.  Oh well…..

There is a NEW listener FEEDBACK number.  Just go to the top left of this web page and you’ll see the local US number you can call to tell me what you need help with or how to make this show better.  I’d really appreciate 2 minutes of your time to provide feedback.

TODAY’s TOPICS

Skype multi-tasking works great with new version for the iPhone4.  Check out a cool tool for analyzing anything that runs on your Windows PC.  Have you waited for the ultimate password manager?  Well, your solution is LastPass.  Finally, some great tips on how to organize your data through intelligent use of folders.

Lastly, I have to mention MEVIO.com, which is where I host my show.  I’ve contacted MEVIO customer support multiple times about the need to change my RSS feed.  They have not contacted me even once so I may very well LEAVE them and move to another media host.  Do NOT expect any help from MEVIO’s customer support.  It does not exist!
