		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s not a new story, but the Herald&#8217;s latest installment of the Firepower saga highlighted again how incredibly lacking in innovation insight the Australian media has been.
In his own testimony, Firepower founder Tim Johnston admitted that the entire saga was predicated around a product idea that not only would never reach fruition, but that he [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Anthill Magazine, an Australian-based publication, has been in steady production since September 2006 and, as an entrepreneur my hat&#8217;s off to Anthill&#8217;s founder and publisher James Tuckermann, who earlier this year transitioned to a mostly-online commercial model, while the magazine itself still physically appears a few times each year.
Anthill now publishes a series of themed [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Forthcoming, I promise.
I&#8217;ve been somewhat distracted in the past few weeks; there&#8217;s no one specific area that&#8217;s had me swamped, just the general pressure of the business &#8211; it&#8217;s a tough commercial environment, in case you haven&#8217;t noticed &#8211; and optimistically planning for a new phase of growth in 2010.
There have been however a number [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A few weeks back I blogged about the perceived implementation delays surrounding Minister Kim Carr&#8217;s 18th March 2009 announcement of up to $83 million to early stage companies who have been &#8220;starved of funds due to the global financial crisis&#8221;.
Its coming up to three months since the announcement date, and it appears that neither the Minister [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This posting probably would be more appropriate on the Locatrix blog, but Wireless Developer Network has reported that TCS have acquired the assets of Autodesk&#8217;s former Location Services division, which had a brief life as privately-owned Location Logic.
The transaction is of interest in several ways. Firstly, I wondered if the private equity firms that acquired the assets [...]]]></description>
