Now we’ve covered how to write an e-newsletter, here’s how to build it.
Of course, the most basic way is just to paste your text into an email and send. But that’s not very pretty, and there are many free online email templates these days to make your job easier. You can also sign up for […]
Part one of a series on how to write, build and send an email newsletter.
For a few years I was responsible for creating at least one e-newsletter a week for a company I worked for. The database grew from nothing to tens of thousands by the time I left (no, that’s not the entire population […]
Since I went away, my beloved country has banned satire in Parliament, a lame act picked up by The Daily Show which then proceeded to take the p***, as we say here. Oh, the mirth. Oh, the shame.

After six months of world travel, my hair was starting to look like a Tina Turner wig so I thought I’d treat myself to a salon cut and color. I knew better hair would make me a better blogger.
Remind me to never do so again, because I’d forgotten how tortuous such sessions are.

Ryan Shamus has added me to the Geek Train. I like its use of labels to describe the bloggers, although I couldn’t possibly be a geek; perhaps he meant ‘Greek’ although I’m not Greek either. Or meek. Okay, this is getting weak.

Please excuse the slight erratic-ness of posting times while I get my head around the new time difference. I am now 17 hours ahead of New Yorkers. I am also jetlagged so wake up at 4am. I appear upside-down to Europeans. All AdSense ads I see are now displaying New Zealand ads thanks to cunning […]
The other night I was drawn to the television, where Posh Spice’s one-hour TV special ‘Coming to America’ was airing. The show has been critically savaged by most media, but I learned a few things.
(Posh Spice lowdown: Former Spice Girl and wife of football/soccer star and model David Beckham. He’s so cute, if only he’d […]
I have just spent a day-and-half moving through the air, from San Francisco all the way to Auckland. You can read about the fun and games of long-distance flights and connections on Travel Minx.
But the main thing is, I’m back! I’m right in the middle of town and yet it looks so empty. There is […]
