Yes yes, it has already been twenty years of net in Oz.  Wow.

Read on for a mail from Geoff Huston on it, and my own ramblings...

And now the music industry stoops to even more amazing lows...

From Slashdot:

"ASCAP (the same folks who went after Girl Scouts for singing around a campfire) appears to believe that every time your musical ringtone rings in public, you're violating copyright law by 'publicly performing' it without a license. At least that's the import of a brief (PDF, 2.5 MB) it filed in ASCAP's court battle with mobile phone giant AT&T."

As insanely corny as this sounds, I feel rather musically "connected" to Tool.  It has been a relationship of many years, and I simply cannot get enough of them.

Y'know, the band that you can just spin their albums and you never, ever, get tired of them.  I guess it goes a litlle deeper for me.

So I guess it was coming -- and expected -- that sooner or later, Kevin Rudd would backdown after all of his diatribe about taking action on climate change.

His lucky break seems to have come in the form of an "economic crisis."

The quote of the moment (and I'll remind you, this is our prime minister... prime, minister), "This is big stuff for the nation. It's big stuff and I wish it was easier to do this - it ain't, it's really hard."

This was just a casual little jam that Ranjit and I had a month or so ago... turned out quite awesome :)

Download it here, and remember the rest of my sets are here :)  Enjoy!  Let me know what you think :)

Great gig out at Calder park, brought to us by ID&T!  Had an awesome day, and it was great to hang with mates from different crews.

Highlights for me definately were Judge Jules and Simon Patterson.  The rest were all a little too "hands in the air" fluffy for my liking.

Click "read more" for the vids :)  No photos unfortunately, didn't get a press pass.

Upgraded to the latest Geeklog, and now I'm also running CAPTCHA for some parts of the site.

Suck on that spammers :D

Just a quick brag about my first ever home-grown chilli :)

Ok, perhaps this is just me, but I think this is fucked.

Channel Ten tonight: top story, first story, is Obama's inauguration. Second story (obviously less newsworthy and less important) is BHP having to fire thousands of employees in Australia.
