About


Born in 1989, William Egan entered life at the beginning of a global revolution. The way human kind interacted with one and other was about to be significantly restructured and his only weapon against this was infancy.

He spent many of his earlier years playing in sandpits and treehouses or taking naps at kinder, completely unaware of the part he was playing in this social shift. His junior years were spread across 3 different schools in the eastern and western suburbs of the urban jungle of Melbourne. He, like many others of this era, were educated alongside laptops, playstations and of course the internet.

This new generation was soon dubbed ‘digital natives’. Unlike previous generations who learned from teachers and their years of wisdom and experiences, this generation just knew. They knew how something would work from their instincts, and soon began to build the world people live in today.

This new generation of digital natives quickly built whole social networks and online communities that the elders were no longer part of. This site could even be one of them. I’m not sure what I’m gonna talk about yet, but follow me over the next two months as i will use this space as an online travel journal. I’m heading off to Europe so hopefully ill fill you in on some nice places…

Employment:

I spent 2008 working for a small business based in Ascot Vale, Victoria. It has been a wonderful and productive year. I helped re design 2 new websites, one of which is an online health resource with podcasts, ebooks, guru blogs and audio books available for on-demand download. I specialise in content development, blogging, podcasting and enjoy being part of the massive online community that is being built around me. Listen to a presentation i gave on Teenagers & Risky behaviours in Melbourne in August. Feel free to Contact Me…

Education:

I am currently studying in the Bachelor of Business course at Monash Uni in Caulfield. This semester I am studying Microeconomics, Commercial Law and Accounting.

Interests:

Anything…  I play tennis, swim and regularly bike ride to work. I like pool, as in billiards, and heading out on the town. I’m never really good at organising things, neither are any of my mates, but we improvise really well. =)

Other Things I do:

Lecture Talk

What is Lecture Talk?
This site has been created for students of Monash Uni to discuss lectures and read discussion notes that were taken in the lecture. Post will go up throughout the week from each lecture and we encourage people to discuss and comment about what is said.

Our aims:

2: Create a weekly podcast (eventually with guest speakers (teachers, students or celebrities)
3: Share Notes on the site to help ease the stress of studying and exams
4: Create a space for you to have your say on what we are being taught!
