As some readers may be aware, I am employed by a pretty large company in the IT Management field.

We regularly have to deal with new virus issues, new trojans… general IT security related problems.

The last few times we’ve had scares - I’ve gone hunting for web sites with fresh information. There’s a few reasonable ones including slashdot & incidents.org but they’re all US focussed.

I’m thinking about firing up an Australian focussed web site for IT people to exchange info and tips around incidents as and when they occur.

Sometimes it’s just that one tiny but crucial bit of information someone shares that can help resolve potentially catastrophic issues.

I need to think it through a bit more but I reckon I’ve got a good fit with the pcguru.com.au domain and some basic bulletin board software. If we lock down the membership to confirmed IT professionals - we can be pretty sure of the quality of the postings and information.

Interested in your thoughts.
