“Wot, no link-posting site?!” Yes, it’s true – the portal at ausculture.com is taking a smoko – possibly several. We’re going to look into different software options (ones that actually work) and better spam-defeaters. And by ‘we’ I of course mean Patrick, over in Sydney. My input has a lot more to do with ranting about things with tenuous links to Australian culture!
Meanwhile, with less time deleting spam, I’ll have more for writing rants – bet you can hardly wait! If you have a link, scoop, comment or suggestion feel free to drop me a line at

, and we promise to look at them by 2108. Hey, it’s probably better service than you’re getting from your mobile provider.
There’s a new, better Australia emerging, and we’re working towards a new, better Ausculture to make sense of it. Stay tuned...
The characteristics of courage and resilience adopted by the ANZACS, calling themselves 'diggers', are recalled with the observation of Remembrance Day, 11 November, first held in 1919, to remember those who died, especially soldiers with 'no known grave'. This year marks the commemoration of 90 years since the battle of Passchendaele which saw 300,000 Allied casualties at the Third Battle of Ypres and more than 100,000 men who died with no known graves.
