There were plenty of hot issues in 2001 and no shortage of good quotes to go along with them. ZDNet Australia has compiled the funniest, most ironic and sometimes downright ridiculous quotable quotes delivered by IT mouthpieces in 2001.
The election is over. But does that mean we are stuck with the same IT policies we've experienced over the past three years?
In this Australian exclusive, ZDNet asked the country's major political parties to outline their IT strategies in the lead-up to the 2001 Federal Election, answering the questions of readers on a myriad of technology-related issues.
The offices of the Liberal party's Richard Alston, the ALP's Carmen Lawrence, the Democrats' Brian Greig, the Green's Kerry Nettle, and One Nation's Pauline Hanson have all agreed to participate in an online forum on IT policies and promises in the run up to the 2001 Federal Election.
For the first time, the opening rounds of the upcoming Australian Federal election are being fought online as well as traditional media forums, as the country's major political parties use their respective Web sites to spruik policies and attack each other's ability to govern the nation.
