I first found Tech Wired because of the podcast. I’d like to see it focus on a weekly podcast
@Matt88 What would you like the weekly Podcast to focus on?
Ben,
I would say that TechWiredAU should focus on the podcast more than the blog. The live shows are always entertaining.
As for what the weekly podcast should focus on, mainly current Australian tech events, gadget releases, relevant political happenings, etc…
Keep us updated with the outcome..
Tech stuff of course, but with an Australian bent. Things like updates on the new internet cable being laid in the Pacific and what effect it’s going to have on Aussie Broadband users. Updates and interviews with people working on the NBN (when that starts moving).
It could just be an Aussie segment within a podcast as Aussie news is not always going to be breaking each week.
I’m a new TechWired follower so not sure if this helps.
I agree with the two comments here. Aussie releases, access to local content and promotion. Aussie developers, movers and shakers. Ideas and brainstorms to support each other. Aussie version of TED/guadian tech would be great.
15k uniques per month is a decent amount of readers, you shouldn’t throw that away. Find some way of holding on to that audience.
What happened to your team of bloggers, I thought TechWired was a bigger team than just Ben, so perhaps, if Ben is otherwise committed, then one of the others could step up as lead editor.
The Hype these days tends to lean towards Apple and everything Apple. Frankly im finding it annoying, Iphone this iphone that. The part i like about techwired is that it is diverse! Keep it diverse, cover different topics within the technology cateogry. Keep the visitors guessing! The best part about visiting a website is the fact you might learn something new, or see something new and different.
my two cents. Cheers
@samuelwellsPodcast more than blog you say.
I shall endeavor to initiate a discussion podcast with other Australian tech writers

Aussie releases, access to local content and promotion.
I think this is very important. Getting the mix right is the fun part… perhaps focusing on different niches on different blogs… ideas are coming to me.
@Jason Cartwright
I’m thinking I might delegate another person to run the blog if I can get advertising to support it.
There is a very loose team that have been offered to blog when they wish.
@Blacky @ CC Comms
Thanks for your input on diversity. Good to have a diverse array of posts to keep one interested
