The Internet is the most convenient place to access Telstra news. Quick access to latest Telstra news can make all the difference especially if you are a day trader in the ASX.
Telstra is Australias largest telecom company providing a wide range of services including mobile services, dialup, wireless and DSL and cable internet access.

Ever since the start of the privatization process of Telecom Australia started and Telstra Corporation was formed, there has always been a flurry regarding Telstra news. In September 2006, the Australian communications minister put out an alert that Telstar should split its wholesale and retail arms or face business restrictions (ABC News). In late 2008, the Telstra news that hit the headlines was the rejection by the Australian government of its bid for National Broadband Network, which resulted in almost 20% fall in share price of Telstra.

The latest in Telstra news is that the company is upgrading 3G services in a big way. Its Next 3G HSPA+ mobile network is capable of providing peak speeds of 42mbps, which is double than the maximum being provided earlier. It has successfully upgraded its Next G to dual core technology. It also sent out its official statement on Windows Phone 7 series before Microsoft.

Telstra is widely traded stock, which makes Telstar news even more important. Quick access to Telstra news can make all the difference to traders in the ASX. Instead of relying on the print media you can access Telstra news on the Internet. Latest Telstra news on the internet is posted in real time along with the possible outcomes. The added advantage is that you get the latest Telstra news on the Internet well before it appears in the print media or the business news channels, no matter which part of the world you are in.

Mel loves shopping and writes about telstra news among other business related topics.

Dreams for Christianity invites clergy, chaplains, teachers, Christians to explore the activities of the dreams through music, prose, listening, learning, and just having fun together with students, young families, and those of other faiths.

Whether it be discussing with our cousins of the same Abrahamic family, the Jews and Muslims, or singing in a school choirs competition, or inviting teenagers to take a leadership role in the churchall the dreams focus on breaking generation and cultural barriers to encourage unity, oneness and greater understanding.

For Bishop John Parkes of Wangaratta, this book seems to be more than a book, instead it is in my experience more like a recollection of conversations with beloved companions as you speak the truth in loveof the mighty acts of God in our language, our cultural configuration, our place and time. You have moved into deep waters here.

Dreams for Christianity, together with its companion book, O My God! Where Are You? discuss programs over two years for Advent, Lent and Ordinary Sundays, based on St. Lukes gospel and his Book of Acts. For fear of becoming sanctimonious, a Really Intelligent Atheist, called Ria, (alias retired lawyer Barbara Coddington) is a companion through the book.

This book will be featured in this months Readers Digest Magazine.

For more information on the book, interested parties may log on to http://www.Xlibris.com.au.

Some cool australian web page images:

This is me
australian web page

Image by sirexkat
This is me, I work on the web.

I live in Fremantle, Western Australia and I look at emerging web technologies and how we can use them in our university library. I tell people about them, show them how to use them, rave about them and then step back and let people make up their own minds. They know more about their jobs and clients than I do, so they can work it out.

I also like to tinker and develop and tweak online tools for the library to use. I love making screencasts and video clips and podcasts. I’m far more of a visual learner than a text based one.

I’ve been using the internet since 1988. That’s about 20 years, half my life and all of my adult life. Back in 1989 I showed my uni classmates the internet as a class assignment – I had the class over to my home because the uni hadn’t provided internet access in academics’ offices yet. I loved showing the web to executives when I worked in the local government (I got to bring my own modem in from home that time) and writing the first web pages for a Western Australian public library.

I find myself having the same conversations around Web 2.0 tools as I did back in the early 90′s. Me: "Hey – look – shiny, useful – can I show you?". Them: "We don’t have the stuff". Me: "Can I make some at home and bring it in?". Them: "No….well why do we want to know about it?..oh OK…hey, this might be useful, but it will never catch on…actually, can we have a bit more please?"

The web has provided me with a support group when I was pregnant with my first son, information about cancer treatments when my mum was dying, let me book a celebrant in Queensland when we eloped and now provides a powerful collaborative professional tool.

The web has changed the way I find social support in the real world. I’m part of several online networks that exchange ideas, pleasantries and daily trivia all over the web. I attend events and meetings organised over the web that continue this conversation – so I feel much more relaxed and able to be me when I’m in the same room as people I already know online. Going out to events and with groups of people is actually becoming fun – it was just stressful before.

A cool surprise and discovery.
One of my PhotonQ was published on the first page of APO (Australian Policy Online,
a non profit website making the latest Australian social policy research available to the public.).

Thanks for the opportunity, and the great CC Creative Commons license, for adding pleasure and fun at taking photo, while publishing it and allowing it to be shared with the world.

The photo was used for an article on Social Isolation and new technology, for APO about a report by the Pew Research Center Think tank.

Australia Zoo has expanded considerably since Ian first visited 7 years ago. The Crocoseum and several surrounding buildings and habitats are all new.

Before the crocs came out there was a bird show – various species were encouraged to fly around the arena from one handler to another. The lorikeets seemed to like landing on people’s heads.

We mised the big cats show, but caught up with them taking some R&R later on.

A visit to Steve Irwin’s Australia Zoo in Queensland. The koala enclosure was lovely. The outdoor koala walkthrough area was full of macadamia trees – the koalas don’t eat these leaves even though the trees are natives, but they are happy to perch in them and eat the eucalypt leaves attached. The reason for this is that the macadamia trees are nice and low and make it easy for visitors to see the koalas not too far off the ground.
