digitalp.jpgFor those of you that weren’t able to catch the “BBC Digital Planet Live at SXSW” Interactive panel, not to fret. The BBC has just posted a podcast of the entertaining live broadcast on their website.

Digital Planet is the BBC's top technology program and on Saturday, March 13, they staged an interactive radio show that they recorded in front of a SXSW audience.

Host Gareth Mitchell commanded the show as two teams competed to answer questions on the latest global tech news and trends. With questions ranging from the intellectual to the entertainingly absurd, the audience was able to play along by answering questions and voting to decide who gave the most entertaining or enlightening answer.

The show’s panelists were drawn from top names at this year's festival, and included June Cohen of TED Media, Dan Gillmor, Jay Adelson of Digg, and Bill Thompson of Digital Planet. This tech panel quiz brought to you by the BBC is sure to leave a smile on your face so be sure to check it out!
