My friends, Duncan, Darren, Jeremy, and Shai (three Aussies and a Canook), at B5 Media have a fantastic announcement today. Rick Segal, a VC that any web 2.0 or blogger entrepreneur will tell you to watch, has just announced a round of funding for the crew: US$2 million.

For me this is exciting on two levels. It’s great to see a bunch of Aussies succeeding, but also it validates (if we still need to) citizen media/blogging/new media/what-ever-we’re-calling-it-today.

Well done to the four of you, and I’m excitedly watching where you guys take this.
