We got together Sunday night. We all had about as much energy as a rung-out dish towel. And yet somehow when I pressed that record button we all came to life for an engaging discussion.

Which kind of makes me wonder why every time I think I'm at my worst, we manage to pull off our best shows. Being mediocre rules!

But I digress. Please enjoy this find audio program with my compliments

Win a FREE iPhone App!

Also a reminder that we are still running our contest to win a free iPhone app from Tomato Interactive. It's a preschool learning app. So if you have kids and an iPhone you're totally in.

The app is called Giraffe's Preschool Playground and here's how you can win:

1. Go to The BeanCast listing in iTunes

2. Write a nice review of the show (existing reviewers are already entered)

3. Send me an email telling me your iTunes user name (not necessary, but it would help)

4. I will draw three (3) winners before the next live show in two weeks

I'd say good luck again, but I have no entries so far. Pretty much if you write a review, you'll win. :)

And once again, I invited you to add me on your Twitter profile. I'm TheBeanCast. As always, thanks for listening and please add a positive review to iTunes if you like the show.
