One of the big problems of the internet is that is practically impossible to keep up-to-date on preferred topics. You can limit your sources, but this can mean missing a lot of valuable data.
Virtually everyone in the telecommunications industry has their say in the Senate Standing Committee's public hearing into the pending legislation to split up Telstra, in this week's Twisted Wire podcast.
How well Stephen Conroy handles Telstra's challenge will determine whether we're hurtling towards a great new era in telecommunications, or fated to even more years stuck in the grip of Telstra's well-entrenched market position.

Just when you thought it was safe to upgrade, think again. In a world that was about to get an iPhone 3G, one phone wasn't going to take it lying down.

This winter, hell hath no fury like an iPhone scorned.
In Silicon Valley, everyone is talking about Microsoft's US$44.6 billion offer for Yahoo.
Microsoft is far better known for its relationship with developers than with designers but as the software giant begins to step on Adobe's toes with its design tools, it has started hiring "user design evangelists" to help spread the word -- both to the design community as well as within its own campus.
