Site News

We had a fantastic month last month for article postings - one of our best - and we're happy to announce a new 'Best Overall Article' category in the monthly competition that every article on the site is eligible. With more articles dealing with topics such as architecture, management and business issues it's great to be able to include these articles in the final tally. The voting forms are now linked from the homepage so please take a moment to say thanks to your favourite author.

We'll be launching new competitions in the next week so keep your eyes peeled.

Finally, just a quick note to all those back home in Victoria devastated by the fires. We're thinking of you. Please consider helping by donating to the Red Cross effort to help those affected.
