Sydney Events - BarCamp & Wiki Tuesday
For anyone interested, I'll be at both the following.
BarCamp Sydney
What's a BarCamp?
A BarCamp is an ad-hoc gathering born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. It is an intense event with discussions, demos, and interaction from participants. If you want to attend, you are encouraged to give a presentation or a demo of some kind.
Most importantly, it's on in Sydney on March 3rd @ UTS. More details at the website.
Wiki Tuesday
Saikore (a Sydney based wiki consultancy) are organising a Wiki Wednesday like gathering in Sydney, except it's on a Tuesday so they've gone with the name "Wiki Tuesday". I guess Wednesday night was busy? :)
More details of date and time here.

Mike,
Barcamp was sweet- I helped organize the one in Phx in December. Notes on what worked plus a picture of the whiteboard that had the topics we covered here if you're interested->

The Goldfish Bowl style is an interesting idea on your barcamp page- we did it more interactive forum with a moderator chosen for each topic to facilitate discussion.

Investments
Advising startups is something I've started doing in the last year. It's a fascinating way to use one's brain and experience to solve other people's problems.
I'm loving it.
Besides the few I advise, I've invested in one, HomeThinking.
HomeThinking provides realtor reviews, ratings and metrics (qualitative and quantitive) for home sellers.
I also make a lot of small microfinance loans to entrepreneurs around the world through Kiva. Read more about my on going Kiva Challenge (update).
