Welcome to the second newsletter for 2009. It is short but good. We in Victoria have had a horrible week. We have lost at least 181 people to bush fires. More than 1000 homes have been burned to the ground. Thousands of people no longer have a place they call home. I lived in Flowerdale, one of the towns razed to the ground, for 10 years until recently. My friends have lost homes, my daughters have lost friends. Tonight as I write this we have an appeal to raise money to help those affected by the fires. For more information on how you can help please visit Victoria Online - Victorian Bushfires How you can help.
Highlights include:

* Victoria - Support for bushfire affected Victoria from the Australian ICT industry

* eGovernment - Government 2.0: The Rise of the Goverati
