Time for another Elite Tech News broadcast! This week Mashable's own Tamar Weinberg (our Community Director here) made her induction to the panel through a trial by fire, filling the guest slot at the round-table and breaking the gender barrier for the show. Aside from her, again we had a full house, as nearly the entire L33t Tech crew showed up and reported for duty: MG Siegler, Louis Gray, Steven Hodson, Jason Kaneshiro, Art Lindsey, and Frederic Lardinois.

Even though we took a solemn pledge not to talk about Twitter or FriendFeed, like moths to a flame, we were drawn to discussing it ad nauseum, weaving it into every topic we brought up for the first half of the show. Eventually, we delved off into other topics:

Dealing With Capacity Overload and "Laying Off" Features

Social-networking sites work to turn users into profits

The Day Google Erased Me From the Internet - Why I Want Microsoft to Be Competitive in Search

Facebook Violates Privacy Law
