On this show I’m joined by Alex and Neil from Audacious Communications who, according to their website, are:
a creative communications agency that blends the power of online social media, podcasting, blogging and vcasting with the skills of professional public relations and organisational communication.
They recently made ten bold prediction for podcasting in 2006 and I was interested to learn a little bit more about the science behind their research methodology…

I’ve spoken to a few people in the past (indeed over the past 2 years) about this,
and even some who are planning an Australian business blogging conference, but I’m getting old waiting for a full blown Australian blogging conference so here is my pitch:
Its time we all got together and organised an Australian blogging conference.
The trick, Dunc, is figuring out who the target demographic of the conference is. Bloggers? People who want to learn about blogging? All of the above? Des wants to get corporate execs. I personally would love to pull together those of us trying to bootstrap new media businesses. And who are you going to get to keynote? Any big names to draw the crowds? Do we HAVE any big names in this country? Or would we need to fly them in from the US ala lesblogs? Who would we get and how? I’ve chatted to a few people about coming out, including Scoble, Buzz, etc. All are keen but its a long frakkin way.

Margaret Simons from The Age attended the Australian Communications and Media Authority comference that Mick Stanic spoke at a couple of weeks ago and she has written a very insightful piece in today’s Age. We get a mention towards the end of the article:
New media cannot rely on audience habit. Therefore they must be truly content-driven to gain an audience.
Take a look at some of the sites and you will see what I mean. There is the world’s first on-line content portal for the independent film and music industry, boostdigital.com, for example. Or the podcast network, thepodcastnetwork.com, an Australian business that started this year and which already has 36 channels with 100,000 listeners in 150 countries, and is showing a profit.
There are great risks in the new media world but also great opportunities. Those who understand the power of content – of story – hold the future in their hands.

Today’s rant.
You know I just realised that this is only G’Day World #10. Ten!! Ten stinkin’ shows?? In a year?? Ten shows that didn’t involve interviews. Man… that’s just slack.
Today I’m talking about:
Doc Searls’ article “Saving The Net”.
Chris Anderson’s comments on the continuing decline in traditional media.
James Bamford’s article “The Man Who Sold The War”
The BBC’s report that the US army used “white phosphorus” as a weapon in Iraq.
