Ben Barren on G'Day World

The inimitable Ben Barren joined the ever-Microsoftian Cameron Reilly one recent sunny South Melbourne morning for a skinny latte and a podcast, interspersed with Gameboy tech support for Cam's two sprogs. Highlights included Cameron's coinage of the new term "GEMAYA Islamiah" which I will be using liberally, and discussion of the 2.0-ness of Noam Chomsky. If Chommo was a twentysomething Valley boy right now, I bet he'd be right in the thick of it as CEO of his own 2.0 startup: drinking the red (star) cordial, propagandising for socialist bookmarking, blogging manifestoes about collectives-as-conversations, and building to flip (as long as it's the proletariat who's buying).

Tai (you got it right) is waiting for me to finish the code so he can work his bugfixing and optimisation voodoo magic.

Tinfinger is real close to beta launch. As soon as the guys at our host provider get back to work and answer our emails, we're away.
