This week on the GeekWire radio show and podcast, we talk about Amazon’s acquisition of Seattle startup TeachStreet, Microsoft’s ad campaign against Google, and the juicy details of Facebook’s finances, as revealed by its IPO filing this week.

We’re joined in the studio by Seattle tech veteran Kevin Lisota, the CEO of real estate startup Findwell, who explains how technology has changed real estate (and how it hasn’t), offers his take on the latest dustup over real estate listing services, and share his experiences using the Nest intelligent thermostat in his home.

Then it’s our App of the Week, just in time for the game, and a new Name That Tech Tune challenge.

Listen to the show above or directly via this MP3 file.
