So I'm in WLG today doing a mixure of work and meetings. Currently squatting in a Pay and Display Carpark sitting on CafeNet. What a fantastic service!

Now I love Google Maps.... but Virtual Earth (in Beta) is just sooooo cool....

Here is the scratch pad of places I want to visit for my PDC trip.

I'm in Perth at the moment. We're at a Surgical conference pitching our new piece of surgical audit software. It's a really clever bit of kit that runs on both Pocket PC and Desktop using broadly the same code base. The team at Kognition have building the midnight oil recently getting it together and it REALLY kicks some ass. We might blog a bit more detail on it further down the track.

I'm staying at the Emerald Hotel which, if you ever end up in Perth, is really rather good. It was just the cheapie that the travel agent suggested but it's close to the convention center and close to Kings path to go running. Oh, the broadband is cheap too and works happily with my WiFi router  If you want to get back into your morning running routine then Western Aus is the place to do it. Your body, still on NZ time, wakes up at about 4am so you are more than ready to rock by 6am.

Kings park is a great place to go running. From the city yu want to run over the freeway overpass and up Mount Street. While going up Mount St oggle at all the nice apartments. THen I've been running east around the edge of the Mount admiring the sunset. Finally to finish there is a monstrosity called Jacobs Ladder which is really just a SUPER eivl set of stairs. Get to them off Mount St on the way home. One jog up these turns my legs to jelly.

Reason I've been slack at blogging recently has been my high travel schedule. Should calm down for a bit now. Added a new category called 'On THe Road'.... will try and blog more.
