Slow news day Tim? Nah, just kidding… I tweeted about this earlier today – certainly a great week to be in Sydney for.

It’s not just about social media, Tim. How to commercialise video is a key focus/issue of the digital/media industry. This is a blatant plug for the AIMIA seminar on next Thursday 24 September. Great case studies and speakers. Details at http://www.aimia.com.au/businessevents.

Thanks for the mention Tim,

Meanwhile, for the hard core tech folks out there there’s a Mozilla Labs night, the first ever down these parts, and the first ever exhibition by Yiying Lu, designer of the Fail Whale, which incorporates some augmented reality magic.

And plenty of parties and social events.
