If you are in Sydney on the evening of Wednesday 12th of November and are keen to be pepped up on Spatial then an event I'd like to recommend is Ignite Spatial that Steve Lead has put together.
I started writing the PolyGeo blog with support from my employer, NGIS Australia, about 22 years after first encountering GIS software while working with the South Australian Museum. In between, my career has included working for the South Australian Department of Environment and Planning (Australia's first ESRI user site) and 18 years with ESRI International Distributors (UK and Australia).
I hope that the perspective I bring, of someone who has seen GIS evolve over nearly a quarter of a century after formal education in Systematic Zoology at the University of Adelaide, is one that that will enable PolyGeo to find its niche in the Geospatial blogosphere. While developer topics will occasionally be discussed, PolyGeo is primarily a blog intended for prospective users of the many GIS products, both COTS and Open Source, that are encountered by the Australian spatial community. Deciding which spatial product(s) can best meet business and technical requirements can be a bewildering exercise.
