Re:Melbourne Australia Hackernews/YC Meetup, this Sun 4th Oct on Sunday October 04, 2009 @02:01AM (#859728)
Can anyone point me in the direction of Sydney meet ups? Also how do I keep in the loop for Melbourne ones as I am there for work quite often.

Hope the Melbourne meet-up goes well!

Re:Poll: Turn off News.YC a few hours a day? on Sunday November 23, 2008 @06:21AM (#373654)
Bad idea. I only check YC news when I'm commuting, or in the evenings (ie. when I want to kill a little time). I'm also in Australia, so the US timezone centric suggestions are very blinkered.

Re:How long before Anywhere.fm + Wimax kills terrestrial radio? on Saturday September 08, 2007 @05:40AM (#52132)
Who do you think will be providing the blanket coverage Wimax and IP?

I see the value in Wimax as a technology, I just cant buy into this vision of uninterrupted IP access everywhere you roam. Its just Wifi on steroids.

I'm off Bush.
Multiple chains concept sounds cool. In the shower this morning I thought of a dozen "chains" I want to start!
Although it does need a user timezone setting. It thinks its Thursday, when its actually Friday here in Australia! Threw me for a moment there!
That's awesome! Wow.

I have a new home/start page in my browser, and I NEVER normally use a start page!

Please keep it as simple as it is now! Its beautiful! If you must add new features, please hide them away so as not to clutter it.

Working on the assumption that the funding will make their remaining shares worth more.
