A real pain: two weeks after the crash
It’s been 2 weeks since my motorbike accident and I don’t feel much better yet. Here’s my advice for other motorbike riders.
Motorbike accident
I had a nasty accident on my motorbike last night. It’s written off 🔥💥 I know bikes are dangerous… Up until yesterday I’d not had a stack since I was 10 on the farm. The bike was a shiny black cruiser, a Honda VTX 1800C fatboy-looking motorcycle. I don’t have good recollection of the accident, […]
26 videos in 4 days – an outstanding achievement by the SSW team

My 6 interviews at Microsoft Ignite Australia 2017

Adam’s 2016 in review
I love these end of year review posts. When you’re in the thick of a project, it can be hard to see the forest for the trees, but when you stop, reflect, and look back… it’s a beautiful landscape. That’s what this year has been like. Celebrity deaths, the US election, the SSW reno… phew. […]
My George Michael Tribute – 7 signs for his 7 number one singles
I’ve had a long love of George Michael’s music… Bought every album… Loved his concerts. The early concerts had a lot of young girls… The last concerts had a large percentage of Greek women in their 40s 🙂 and gay guys in their 20s. What I liked most of all was George’s sincerity in his […]
How to learn Angular 2 fast
This month we have been running our Angular Super Powers tour in Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane. We always knew Angular 2 would be a hot topic, but we were overwhelmed with the demand for the 1-day training event. We sold out tickets in every city. We even had to turn some people away due to the fire […]
The SSW Getaway
Trump is President. It was certainly an experience being in the USA for the vote results last night. It’s been a big surprise for everyone I’ve spoken to on the Microsoft Campus. My prediction in 6 months: Trump says: I’m cancelling the wall. Hillary suggested it in the 1st place and I always said it […]
Power BI – No More Guessing
UPDATE 9/02/2017: I’ve added Uly’s Power BI presentation to the bottom of this post. Power BI has significantly changed how I view my company’s data, and the insight I now have into how my business is running is unprecedented. The biggest change has been that the account managers are now in charge of making the reports, […]
