Valentine’s Day is only 4 weeks away and in 2005 there will be only one way for any true geek to send their loved one a Vanetine message. Forget cards, flowers or e-cards. They are soooooo 20th Century.
IN 2005, THE ONLY WAY TO TELL SOMEONE YOU LOVE THEM IS WITH A G’DAY WORLD VALENTINE.
What’s a “G’DAY WORLD VALENTINE???” I hear you ask? Well here’s how it works.
- Record your message to your loved one using any voice recording device. Keep it under 60 seconds.
- Save it as an MP3.
- Email it to cameronreilly@gmail.com
- We will stitch all of the G’day World Valentines together and we will put this out as a special episode of G’day World on Feb 14.
- The BEST and MOST ORIGINAL G’day World Valentine will receive a special prize, all the way from Australia.
- Special points will be awarded for anyone who says “G’day” in their message, and bonus points for using the term “sheila” and “bloke”.

Another great “On the Pod” with a shaker and mover from the US…this time we interview Om Malik who is the Senior Writer with Business 2.0 and author of “Broadbandits: Inside the $750 billion telecom heist“.
Listen as we talk to Om about Arnold Schwarzenegger, cricket, his new book, Broadband, how the generation gap is closing on internet usage, the iPod, VOIP, blogs. content on demand, broadband in Australia and a whole heap of things.
Om is one of those journalists that just “gets it”, so this is another “On the Pod” episode you shouldn’t miss…
PS. We nearly have our bandwidth issues sorted out, so expect the G’day World podcasts to start coming thick and fast pretty soon…next up…Robert Scoble 🙂

Welome to another episode of “On the Pod” in which we talk with Mark Jones, Deputy Managing Director at IDG Communications, which is probably the largest publisher of “IT” magazines in Australia and NZ. Mark also maintains the “filtered” blog where he writes about “technology, media and marketing grit”.
In this episode we talk to Mark about print magazines, email newsletters, the death of the fourth estate and the rise of the new publishing paradigms like RSS, weblogs and podcats.
