Aussie charm? Is that an oxymoron? :-) I just think its a sign that startups are potentially slightly more 'clued-up' than old companies. Or at least their CTO's... the man has a watchlist in NewsGator, showing both tech savvy and web2.0 savvy. May there be more like him.

Sprint could learn something from this. When I sweetly -- ok, as sweetly as I could, given my nature -- cattle prodded them about their marketing efforts, they responded with a machine generated form letter. You go the CTO, personally.

Must be that Aussie charm, old man.

Good luck to John et al with Prosper. I'm not sure how a conservative country like Australia would go with it, after all it took eBay a long time to get going here.

Having said that, eBay is now huge here; perhaps an Aussie Prosper could take off... Best of luck to the hard-working entrepreneur who decides to give it a go -- because it WILL be a lot of hard work to get it up and running in this very cynical, hard-nosed, US-wary country.

1. Would Prosper, well, prosper over there with the Aussie psyche?

2. Perhaps one of your entropreneurial colleagues, reading your blog, might decide to launch her/his own version?

The Power of Us could lead those ways...
(I have no relationship with the firm,but several at the TED conference were complimentary about their biz model)... and I will be speaking aobut how they could forge "Smart Partnerships" to leverage their vlaue and visibility

Hi John,

Thanks for the response -- this puts you back firmly into the 'clued-up' category! Well done -- did you find my post via a Technorati search?

You're right. Our bad. Sorry. Unfortunately, we're open to the U.S. only right now. I think she may have just liked the blog, or perhaps skimmed it carelessly and missed the banner that pretty clearly says "Austrialia". I'll remind her to be more careful.
