But not entirely moribund! For example, the July issue of PC User is now out, and not only do I have a feature in there — but it’s the cover feature! Woo-hoo! (Imagine, if you will, Alex giving himself a high-five, before realising how stupid that looks, and stopping in embarassment. Or imagine what you […]

Something different in the publishing sphere, that is. I’ve just had a blurb published in the St Lukes Hornsby Heights church bulletin, which is about as far away from consumer IT journalism as one can get. Now, with the exception of my wife, I’d be guessing that most of my meagre readership doesn’t in fact

I’ve been a busy lad; more articles published, this time at the ever-popular CNET.com.au: LaCie Slim DVD±RW with LightScribe, Design by F.A. Porsche: “A quick gander at the F.A. Porsche design site reveals that they consider themselves “Engineers of Purism” — whatever that means…” Sony Ericsson V600i: “The v600i is a good jumping in point

More online sightings of the words “Alex” and “Kidman”, with nary a “Nicole” in sight. CNET.com.au pops up again with a review of the Acer AL1951: “Acer’s AL1951 offers a decent option for gaming junkies and those wanting a large LCD display in a small frame….” And on a completely different note, 3DAvenue.com has my

I finally got a glimpse of the latest issue of the Home Entertainment Buyer’s Guide, and indeed, my feature on Digital TV legislation is in there, albeit without a byline. The solution’s simple, though: Go out, buy a copy and scribble my name in the margin. You know it makes sense. In the web world,

Me, I write articles. Such as in the latest issue of the Home Entertainment Buyer’s Guide, which (so I’m told) has my feature on the future of Digital TV in Australia in it. Go out, buy copies; there’s a golden ticket in every 50,000th issue that gets you a free dinner with Peter Blasina! *

A couple more reviews for everybody’s enjoyment are now live at CNET.com.au: Mitsubishi Diamond Digital MD100: “It’s clear to see what Mitsubishi’s Diamond Digital MD100 Hard Drive really wants to be — an iPod…” Philips DTR7200: “It’s no fault of the technology itself, but at the current time there’s precious little HD content actually being
It happens so rarely, I figure it’s worth noting. I’m sure I was right about something (possibly involving crocodiles) back in 1982, but since then it’s all a bit fuzzy. Specifically, the new issue of Netguide Magazine is out in stores now (although *cough* I’m yet to see my subs copy), along with a spiffy

Or, at least, I’ve been published everywhere, it seems: The June 2006 issue of PC User (also its 200th issue, fact fans) is out, and you should buy it. Not only does it feature a review of mine (which they’ve already paid me for), but editor Glenn Rees says some nice things about me (and

Sydney, NSW: At a suitably glitzy venue*, Alex Kidman, chief proprietor of Alex Kidman and all associated bodies and commercial entities, unveiled a bold new 21st century marketing campaign designed to promote the freelance activities of Alex Kidman through the mediums of print, billboard, zeppelin and randomly marked wild ocelots. Speaking exclusively to alexkidman.com, marketing
