I like reading MIS magazine every month as it keeps me informed on what is happening in the corporate technology sector of Australia. They’ve just recently made it available online, and I was staggered to see that you can get all the content from the current version for free (past versions require a subscription). This article may be of interest to people in the job market at...
Just thought I’d give this a plug because I like the concept behind it. Wayne Small, a SBS MVP, who runs the Sydney SBS UG (that’s Small Business Server) is running a conference – SMB Focus – in late November (23 & 24) for small to medium business IT resellers. Wayne, who I’ve been chatting with lately (he was kind enough to lend me his video camera so I could...
I’ve used Windows Live Writer in the past, and it has been a little flaky. I’m happy to say that their latest beta (its been out for a few months now) is a lot better. Much faster, and is working well handling images (something I had trouble with in the past version). Windows Live Writer Download Windows Live Writer blog Note: If installing on Vista you’ll most likely have to...
A great meeting with Fred Schebesta and Grant Paisley presenting up a storm last Wed 25 July 2007. Fred powered through an excellent overview of internet marketing, search engine optimization and web site tracking. A big thank you to Fred for coming along, and big congratulations to him on his engagement a few days after the meeting – enjoy your holiday Fred. Grant talked us though the new...
I won’t bore you with all the details, but suffice to say this is the third time (in about as many months) that I’ve had to completely reinstall my machine. Everything is fine until one morning I will start my notebook and it just won’t boot. Our techies have looked at it, and it comes down to a corrupted boot sector thingy (whatever). No tools are able to fix, dual boots...
LOL!

Good luck Australia (and specifically the ACCC).
Can you believe it? In a country where our internet coverage and performance is so woeful, we spend time and money chasing Google over their use of sponsored links. Hilarious, if it weren’t so tragic.
The comments in the posts are interesting – my favourite: Only the lawyers will win out of this one.
Michele alerted me to this wonderful video that ‘explains’ how communicative autistic people really are. It is more than us ‘normal’ people being arrogant. It is more than just being judgemental. It is really about missing out on understanding a whole other, beautiful side of humanity. Prepare to be humbled. Aside: I’m told that Second Life (the online game) has...
This month (25 July) is going to be an awesome meeting at the Sydney Business & Technology User Group with two exciting sessions. First off, I am very thrilled to have Fred Schebesta – internet marketing guru, and 2006 Australian Direct Marketer of the Year Award winner – presenting on SEO, SEM, internet marketing and branding and whole bunch of other goodness to do with promoting your...
Michael, I hope your new camera is under warranty, because there is something seriously wrong with the shots it is taking – although a few like this one of Andrew Coates are OK though :-)
I know this is getting a lot of links, but I really, really like it.
One of the most inspiring speeches I’ve heard (read) in a long time.
Please read it.
