In conjunction with the 2010 IT Priorities research ZDNet has conducted across Asia, Munir Kotadia is travelling across Australia and Asia to bring you face-to-face research with IT professionals in the region. This blog provides a peek at some of the things you won't see on the Roundtable videos.
Munir first became involved with online publishing in 1998 when he joined ZDNet UK and later moved into print publishing as Chief Reporter for IT Week, part of ZDNet UK, a weekly trade newspaper targeted at Enterprise IT managers. He later moved back into online publishing as Senior News Reporter for ZDNet UK. Munir was recognised as Australia's Best Technology Columnist at the 5th Annual Sun Microsystems IT Journalism Awards 2007. In the previous year he was named Best News Journalist at the Consensus IT Writers Awards. He no longer uses his Commodore 64.
