Hey guys, great show! This was my first time listening and I think you guys have got something great here. Im a PR student and wrote a blog post about this podcast. I linked in Chris, but John your link isn’t correct. Wanted to link you in, but you’ve got a popular name. Thanks for your help and keep up the great work!
Nice to hear more Melbournians listening to the podcast. Hit me up on Twitter Tim

As far as webhosting and datahosting is concerned, we use a data center down in Tampa Florida called Datatech http://www.datatechhosting.com/
It’s a fast growing company run by a fast-paced guy Chris Lietz. We’re never down and they have great support. Chris even gets involved if he has to even though he has a bunch of other things going on.
Love your podcast, get a lot of great info for my what is becoming my main job – getting our company to become one of the main conversationalists in the social media arena for our industry.
