hey Patrick,
Firstly, I don't agree that there is a lack of access to capital in
Australia -- we've seen a massive expansion in this area recently.
What type of capital, and how much, have you personally looked for?

hey Ash,
the hardest part for me is maintaining the vision as a single founder.
They say you should ideally have two founders for a startup, and I

I used to use my head, but I have found that any decisions I make with
respect to my business must be made with my gut. It's the only way

similar to the annual BRW list. We're looking for suggestions as to
who should be on it. I'm sure there will have been more than a few

Cheers Matt -- I'm happy to eat my words :) Although I still think
it's not the best idea -- it does limit what you can do with the
publication as a commercial concern. I mean, you are essentially
shackling your brand as a publication to theirs. And if they decide to
change their mind about you guy

Sorry to toot Delimiter's horn here -- I just think Silicon Beach
might be interested in this one :) Personally I think Stevens'
comments are a load of bullcrap and I will be saying so publicly. Let
me know what you think on this one -- I'll be following this up.
