Why bother?
New Dr Who to make online debut
Australian Doctor Who fans will be able to legally watch new episodes of the sci-fi series online before they air on television.
Date to appear in iView: April 16.
Date first episode airs in the UK: April 4.
Running a VPN or proxy to watch the stream from the BBC website April 5: not illegal at all.
If the ABC was serious about attracting Doctor Who fans, they’d run it on iView April 5.

When Google Buzz debuted a month ago, integrating a new social network into your GMail, it did not roll out to business accounts running GMail on Google Apps.

So it bucketed down Golf balls here in Melbourne Saturday…well, it did where I lived, some media are reporting hail as big as lemons.
One of the few times I’ve ever been scared in weather (other times nearly exclusively on aircraft.) I actually pulled Declan away from the windows because I was scared that the hail would shatter them. The noise is something I’ll never forget: we have a colourbond roof, OMG it was loud.
I didn’t keep a full tally of how long it took for the media to cover it, but my general observations: slow.
The Age was first with...

Increased use of Twitter has made the users sharing and clicking on links more attractive to both legitimate businesses and ill intended people looking to steal passwords or guide you to unsavory sites. Seemingly each week there are new stories about phishing attempts that prey on direct messages (DMs) from trusted people, and if compromised, these accounts could lead to more spam, just spreading the mess further. SocialToo, a company led by Jesse Stay, and one where I am an advisor, has opted to take a proactive...

Twitter's growing ranks continue to swell practically every Monday this year, and today is no exception, as the blue birded microblogging service added four more to its arsenal today with an interesting mix of well-known tech faces and a curveball, also taking on an executive from a franchise furniture store in San Francisco. The latest hires take the company's full-time roster closer to 150, and swell the number being followed on their official list to more than 170.

BBC: Melbourne death causes diplomatic strain
Relations between India and Australia have been put under strain following the death of a three year old Indian boy in Melbourne.
A 23-year-old Indian national has been charged with manslaughter, due to criminal negligence, over the death of three-year-old Gurshan Singh Channa.
I’ve got nothing against Indian people, but as goes their Government, this isn’t a country we should be trying with any more. This is a country that cries racism even when their own citizens are committing the crimes.

The ABC claimed that the internal house death of the 3 yr old child might cause racial tensions.
Seriously
Turns out an Indian kills an Indian….
I feel bad for all deaths, but where is the police here?
