Twitter, PubCamp and Australia

In this morning’s Australian Financial Review newspaper I had a fairly long story about how Australians are using Twitter and LinkedIn to connect. The phenomenon was particularly evident in several conferences last week, including PubCamp, and also in the opening of Apple’s first retail store in Sydney. This story caused a flurry of discussion online, including on TechNation Australia, which dubbed me “the tech industry’s mainstream media hero”.

Not quite sure I’m that — just a normal journalist :)

Keep pushing

"Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplacable spark. In the hopeless swamps of the not quite, the not yet, and the not at all, do not let the hero in your soul perish and leave only frustration for the life you deserved, but never have been able to reach. The world you desire can be won, it exists, it is real, it is possible, it is yours."
