Talking Technology With V I Labs Episode 61 - Was David wrong to write off PiccyBot?


 





 




This week on Talking Technology we dive deeper into description app PiccyBot with its developer Martijn van der Spek. With David not finding much use for PiccyBot last time we spoke about it on Quick Picks, will he be eating his words?
