Australia still has no Government

Well, Kevin Rudd was booted out, and Australia became the laughing stock of western civilisation.  Then no one cared anymore.

So off to the polls on August 29 we went.  Fast forward to September 6, and Australia is still yet to have a Government.

Jessica Watson is not a hero

Jessica Watson has completed something that not many people have done, and not many people will do.  She sailed around the world solo, in her little boat.  She’s only 16, and there’s no denying that it’s one hell of an achievement, but is she really a hero?

The Putty Road Memorial Opening

May 15, 2010 will be remembered by myself as the day a group of complete strangers came together, to remember all the good men, woman and children who have been killed on the Putty Road.

Google has finally unveiled the Google Chrome OS. An operating system based on their Chrome Browser. Which is of course based on Apple’s WebKit (like Safari).

Nathan Bush – Bigger Issues Than Imports For Book Retailers

For anyone who likes to read books, and of course purchase books, Nathan over at Another Advertising Wanker has a post that I thought was pretty interesting.

Last week the Rudd Government upheld the law which states that Australian book stores can not import any book which has been published within Australia within 30 days of its international launch. This law is in place to protect Australian publishers.
