Hey - check us out! The TechNation Australia team is getting some props from other tech/startup writers.

First of all TechNation Australia is Anthill Magazine’s site of the week.

It’s really great to get support from more mainstream media - especially organisations like Anthill who we like and respect.

A big thanks to Anthill Editor Paul Ryan for the coverage and to TechNation Australia writer Geoff Evason for coming up with the Startup Index concept.

In addition - late last month, Inquisitr editor, and former TechCrunch writer, Duncan Riley included TechNation Australia in his list of Blog Day 2008 sites.

Thanks Duncan.

The most pleasing thing about being recognised by people like Paul and Duncan is not the recognition itself but the fact that it just might mean we’re starting to achieve our goal of increasing awareness of aussie related tech/web startups and people.

OK - that’s enough back-patting…back to work team!
