Following on Michael Still’s lead, I decided to do a remix of the Tech Ed Flair as well. Ok, here’s my entry below… Was just something I whipped up quickly. Seriously though, how many Tech Eds can the Channel 9 guy get to in a year?

Look’s like MSN Messenger’s been down again. I’ve gotten about 1000 hits on that post I wrote awhile ago about the MSN Messenger Error “8 1 0 0 0 3 7 8″. If you want a little laugh, have a read of this post by Rory Blyth. Rory’s drawings/comic strips always adds that extra little [...]

I’m sure there are companies out there that are just hearing the news now that Microsoft plans to integrate RSS heavily into Longhorn, and many companies will be going “What the heck is RSS”? Because you know, Microsoft is so big and all that, companies really stand up and take notice when they do something. [...]

It’s now been a few months since I’ve joined the Melbourne Metroblogging team (RSS), but i’m still there and blogging. (If you don’t see me blogging here, there’s a chance that i’ll probably be posting on the Melbourne Metroblog!) We’re currently looking for more bloggers to get involved in our Melbourne blog, which is a [...]

I admit i’ve given this a little thought, but not too much. But i’m sure i’m not the only one with this viewpoint. There’s not enough choices when it comes to blogging engines based on ASP.NET. There’s ComminityServer’s blogging engine. And there’s dasBlogs, and then there’s a few other ones people have written themselves for [...]

About to fall asleep right now, but briefly skimmed over this blog post by Senator Andrew Bartlett. (Just posting this so i’ll re-read it again when i’m more awake.) He’s done a bit of a breakdown of John Howards’ interview on ABC Radi0′s AM program. I’ll admit I haven’t really been following this issue too [...]

Ok, I’ve just got this random idea that I came up with yesterday (while sitting through the MDNUG meeting last night). The idea is for an Australian State of Origin Code Challenge. State versus state, user group versus user group. The winning state/user group gets presented with a trophy with the names of the individuals [...]

Wow, i’m half surprised and half “heh” about how fast the news travels around the web these days. I was reading my RSS feeds last night and was chatting in the JoiIto IRC channel over on freenode and noticed a blog post about a Red Screen of Death (RSOD) (by Michael Kaplan), so I pasted [...]

Last Wednesday I posted a blog post about the possible introduction of an Australian Law which the Australian government hopes to enforce. The article stated that it is supported by the two major political parties (Labor and Liberal Parties). Anyway, back onto the topic at hand, I received an interesting comment by Senator Andrew Bartlett [...]

This is interesting… Is it a coincidence that I posted one blog entry, and published once, then edited it and republished it again… Then a few minutes later I get two trackback spams? Could it be that when my blog “pings” one of the ping servers that pingomatic.com one of the bots checks for the [...]
