AWS Tech Chat

About  few weeks back I started listening to AWS Tech Chat by Dr. Pete Stanski and Russell Nash on SoundCloud. They are solutions architects of AWS from Australia. Since started listening to their podcats I can now ignore the emails from AWS about their product launch notifications. They cover a most of these latest product updates and deep technical insights into AWS products and services. It is less marketing more technical (otherwise I wouldn't have listened to it). So far they are doing a great job, and if you haven't listened to it before I strongly suggest you give it a go and I am sure you will like it. You might also be able to crack some of the wording Dr. Pete use for URL (urrl) and AMI (amy). It is fun and interesting. I guess my question to Dr. Pete and Russ is when are you gents going to cover AWS Kubernetes offering? given Google and Microsoft are talking a lot about it these days (surprising to without annoying me).

The San Francisco Fallacy by Jonathan Siegel

Image
Over the long weekend in Melbourne, Australia I had the opportunity to read The San Francisco Fallacy by Jonathan Siegel.  It was a great book to read, I am glad that I had the opportunity and time to read it. The key reason I liked the book is that while the author Johnathan gave the titled San Francisco Fallacy, the fallacies applied in almost any startup in any city no matter where you are.  He touches on the ten (10) most commonly found fallacies in Startup culture and clearly articulate why they are a fallacy with some of his own experience. I have applied some of his finding in my own experience and he is spot on, highly accurate like he had spoken to me about it. This will be one of the books that I will read at least twice a year to remind myself about the fallacies we all fall in without thinking too much. Highly recommend anyone involved in Startup, especially if you are a founder or co-founder to read this book. I am sure you will find it highly valuable.

Crowdfunding in Australia

What is Crowfunding? I am not going to bore you with detailed definition around Crowdfunding given it is no longer a buzzword. However given some of the readers may be new to crowdfunding, let me to try to explain in a simple way. "Crowdfunding : is where you are asking general public to trust and fund a project or a venture you are working on. In return you may reward them with your product/s, service/s, equity or add them to hall of fame in honour of their contribution"  What forms of Crowdfunding is available in Australia? While Australian government is working on bringing equity based crowdfunding to the general public, in Australia we have access to donation-based and reward-based crowdfunding. These platforms ranges from US based Kickstarter, Indiegogo, New Zealand based Equitise, Pledgeme, Snowballeffect to local Pozible, OzCrowd, V enturecrowd, M ycause etc.   Donation-based crowdfunding offers general public to donate funds to a good causes.
