Like some of you reading this I’m surprised to look at the calendar and see we’re heading into a new year already. Back in September I wrote my first blog about been an IT journalist and now four months later I’m lucky enough to be posting the last one for the year.
It’s been a great experience meeting the reseller community and I hope you all manage to get some time off during the silly season.
One common thread that has emerged from interviews this year is that people seem enthusiastic and positive about the local IT industry. This isn’t just coming from the old hands but also the young people I’ve had the pleasure of interviewing for the Hotshots column.
The hotshots all indicated that they would be staying in the industry which bodes well for the future.
It’s also pleasing to see some Australian based companies opting to open local offices for resellers rather than trying to run everything from Sydney or Brisbane.
We’ll be on holiday until January 7 and look forward to another round of stories and events in 2008.
