Social media has it’s own native fauna that run around, with out the “flight” mechanism, with large pincers to grip their prey, carrying venom sacks with which to inject us with. Like the Australian Bull Ant this is a primitive species that first appeared millions of bytes ago – on UseNet. While primitive it’s an adaptable survivor. It’s survived the age of the NTTP server, the Dot Bomb Ice Age and is thriving deep in this modern inter-web era of RSS.It’s a ferocious consumer that will “follow” you and attack if you get to near or if it sees you first. Dropping a firecracker in a nest of them is devastating – to you! Attempting to squash them underfoot will result in a painful bite that may need more than an ice pack. There is no commercially available spray for treatment.

Why I have bothered with the Windows 7 logo program
Across on his blog Andy Bryce has written some very good reasons for why he won’t be bothering with the round of Windows 7 logos marketing Microsoft has launched. First I should point out that there is a difference between the “Compatible with Windows 7 logo” and associated marketing materials and the “Certified For” program run by Microsoft. The latter, I’m in full agreement with Andy. I saw no benefit in the Vista version and see no beneift in the Windows 7 version.
Rather we’re talking about the logo to the left of this article.
Copyright Law – An Australian Political Perspective
Ordinarily I keep my political activities seperate to this blog. However I published an article today, on copyright, that may be of interest to developers and Micro ISV’s, particularly those residing in Australia.It doesn’t state anything we haven’t heard many times before, as developers, but it is an opening gambit, in the public political sense, of mine on this issue. The objective is to raise awareness overtime and hopefully nip in the bud certain subversive influences I’m aware of, in the political scene here in Australia, in relation to this issue.
