Our cover story in the next issue of WIRED is about Magic Leap, a so-called mixed-reality device. You put on some goggles, and the technology places virtual objects in your real surroundings, where you can interact with them. David and Michael discuss the future possibilities of AR, VR, and MR. Also this week, Michael explains why he recently ditched Snapchat (take a wild guess). The show opens with a discussion of browser habits spurred by the launch of Vivaldi, a new browser for the deepest browser nerds.
Two show notes this week. Joe is sick with a bad cough and we didn’t want him to infect our airspace so he’s not on the show this week, and you can learn more about WIRED’s senior maverick editor Kevin Kelly at kk.org.
