...Alan Kay said "The best way to predict the future is to invent it". I think this (sorry...Windows Media format only) video is a classic example of this process.
The bits and pieces of the technology is already available. It's a matter of putting everything together and streamlining it.

election results are in...
...and Labor wins. I am happy with the results, I wanted Labor to win.
I am not a hard core Labor or Kevin Rudd supporter -In fact I am nervous about Labor's economic management skills, their inexperienced team and whether Labor will fulfill their ambitious promises without affecting the economy too much. I am also worried about Trade Unions abusing their powers and ruining small businesses-rather, I was really getting tired of John Howard's conservative policies, his inaction towards climate change, his lack of long term vision for Australia (not investing for the future while Australia is enjoying a resource boom) and most importantly him mis-leading the country (not him directly, but using plausible deniability)-Remember "Baby overboard" and his compassion less stand on refugees -Remmber Tampa
Said that, I do acknowledge he is a great leader and a very clever politician [latter is not exactly a complement :)]
Hope Labor makes full use of this win and prove to Australia they can govern. We have to wait and see...

i just realised....
...the Australian Federal Election is on tomorrow.
No, I wasn't living under a rock for last month or so. I was aware the election was on. But, just didn't realise it is on tomorrow.
It has been interesting...both major parties has been releasing "me too" policies. Liberal has been focusing on how the interest rate is going to go up and unions are going to ruin the country if labor comes to power. Labor is focusing on AWA. I am getting really tired of listening to this. Nobody seems to want to tell voting public what their policies are and what they stand for.
Last couple of elections Liberals played the Migration and National Security cards. This election they have been put away. Liberal is trying hard to convince the voters of their green credentials. It's bit of a lost cause, considering John Howard used to deny global warming is real.
One funny thing is, I totally forgot about Democrats. I literally forgot them as a political party. It's sad really, I used to respect them and their views before they drowned and imploded due to infighting.
Well I better go find out where is the nearest polling booth is.
