After much confusion about the purpose of these blogs to the point where I felt my head was about to explode, I decided it was necessary to listen to the Jamaicans and "Just Breath". Funnily enough, oxygen is really handy in getting the brain to think harder! Who knew!?! So, with this new found attitude, I decided to find some inspiration by working my way through the entire Networked Media Blogging...
Why the Australian government won't win the war on online piracy and copyright infringement.
Recent reports came out today speculating on the impact that Attorney General George Brandis' latest anti-piracy proposal will have on the Australian public who were recently deemed by Mumbrella to be "at the top of the world piracy ladder." Here are my reasons why the proposal, and subsequent proposals to fight those who elicit online piracy, will fail.Quit your whining!
The March 30th release of the Federal Government's Final Report from the Convergence Review has ruffled not just a few feathers amongst the media moguls but I'd have to say the entire plume. From The Australian to The Herald Sun, commentators around the country have contributed their two cents worth focusing mainly on the negative effects...Australian Films To Look Out For In 2014
2014 was recently described by Inside Film as shaping up to be "one of the strongest years for Australian films." In anticipation of this, and considering my lack of posts recently, I thought I would provide you all with a few more reasons as to why this claim is valid made with summaries of the films mentioned and their accompanying trailers....Why the Australian government won't win the war on online piracy and copyright infringement.

Mindblank...
Ok so no I'm not an idiot or a complete techno-loser but I seriously can not remember the process of converting one of your photos from your desktop onto a website. I got as far as opening the image into Photoshop and saving it under the "Save for web devices" category but that's as far as I could remember. Will get back to this so...

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly...
In line with Quentin Tarantino's Hitler, all I want to do this morning is scream"NEIN! NEIN! NEIN! NEIN! NEIN!!!OK, phew, its alright, I've got it out of my system now.Now, you are probably all wondering what the hell is wrong with me if I am simulating the behaviour of a fictional/real historical evil mastermind, particularly...

Flaming firebombs!
Anyone who happened to pick up today's Herald Sun would have immediately been created with the gruelling image of a fire truck desperately racing away from an enraging furno. The front page boldly reads "Nobody Was In Charge". The following story on page 4 detailed the latest developments of the Royal Inquiry into the Februaru 7 "Black Saturday" Bushfires.Now I know I'm treading water in dangerous...

A happy heartwarming story about something not so heartwarming...
I was particularly excited to hear today (more for the fact that my hometown of Perth had actually done something worthwhile for a change) of the landmark case involving Christian Rossiter, a quadriplegic who finally was awarded the right to refuse medical treatment that may result in his death. I don't know why, cases like this don't usually concern me or strike me as momentous as I don't really...

Police poised for new strip search powers...I mean, street searchpowers...
Oh this one was just too good not to do.
For those of you that don't know me, I am madly, crazy, gooishly (yes I did just make up my own word in a blog), in love with the opposite sex (i.e the male variety) and relish any chance I can get to grab a sneak peek of said species' anatomy. Hence why I spend a lot of time at the...

Krikey! Even the koalas are at it!
Today's shocking news for all was most definitely the sudden and unjustly premature death of Sam the Koala, the cute bundle of fluff that attracted audience's attention around the world to the devastating effects of the Black Saturday Bushfires.But bizarely enough, Sam did not die of what one would assume a koala would naturally...

All Is Not In Vain...
Ok, so, probably not the best day to start an optimist's blog based on daily front page news. Today, I had a choice between the Somali Islamists foiled suicide terrorism raid and the death of a 2 year old girl called Hayley. Naturally, I chose The Herald Sun's coverage of the brutal, violent attack on an innocent infant.What's that you say? My logic fails you? Yes, I'm not surprised. Most people would...
