Another video from X | Media | Labs (yes, Caroline and Melissa, I’m getting there)… this one is with the gentleman I prefer to think of as Mr Suw – Kevin Anderson. Kevin is the Blog Editor at The Guardian in the UK. In this short video (my tape ran out at the end of a long day), Kevin gives his views on how MSM sites distinguish between a journalist’s blog and their articles.

My guests today are the guys behind Australian Anthill magazine – Publisher and Editor-In-Chief James Tuckerman and Editor Paul Ryan. 
I chat with James about how he walked out of a well-paid job in PR to start the magazine when he was 26 (or was that 27? 28?), the early years, where they are today and the vision for the future. Paul chats about his different job interview and role in the company.

While recording a new episode of the Advaita Show podcast today, my co-host Steve mentioned the recent book that has been published with Mother Teresa’s letters to her spiritual mentors which point out what a big bloody faker she was.
Check it:
Yet no sooner did Teresa start her work in the slums of Calcutta than she began to feel the intense absence of Jesus—a state that lasted until her death, according to her letters.
“The paradox is that for her to be a light, she was to be in darkness,” Kolodiejchuk said.
In a letter estimated to be from 1961, Teresa wrote: “Darkness is such that I really do not see – neither with my mind nor with my reason – the place of God in my soul is blank “There is no God in me” when the pain of longing is so great” I just long & long for God. The torture and pain I can’t explain.”
And this:
“Lord, my God, who am I that You should forsake me? The child of your love—and now become as the most hated one. You have thrown away as unwanted unloved So many unanswered questions live within me afraid to uncover them because of the blasphemy If there be a God please forgive me I am told that God loves me, and yet the reality of darkness & coldness & emptiness is so great that nothing touches my soul.
Note: “If there be a God…”
And this:
The whole time smiling sisters and people pass such remarks they think my faith, trust and love are filling my very being. … Could they but know and how my cheerfulness is the cloak by which I cover the emptiness and misery, she wrote.
What a big bloody faker. All the time pretending she was spiritually “with it”, and yet underneath she was a mess.
But… I hear you say… what does it matter? Look at the good she did?
Did she? By lying? By faking? By pretending? By letting the world believe her good works were inspired by her belief when really she was devoid of belief?
Imagine, instead, how much good she might have done had she had the courage to be honest and forthright about her lack of belief, and yet had continued to do her good works regardless??
We’ve seen it before – the bigger the poseur, the bigger the fake. Remember that lesson kids.

Westpac is an Australian bank. One of the big ones. They made $3 billion profit last year. Their CEO David Morgan has a compensation package estimated at $14 million this year. They recently hired ex-Telstra CIO Vish Padmanabhan. And yet their website has been down all day. And they kept me on hold for over 8 minutes telling me “your call is important to us”.

Ewan Spence (TPN’s Rock Show, PSP Show, Edinburgh Festival Show… have I forgotten any??) spoke on a panel in Edinburgh yesterday about the future of TV. Read Kevin Anderson’s coverage for The Guardian (and watch for my video podcast inteview with Kevin that’ll be up here in a few days). Read Ewan’s statements in the article and then tell me if he reminds you of anyone…
