ExplorOz Newsletter - Issue 258

Edition 258: 30th March 2012

Hi ExplorOz Reader,

Easter, school holidays, ANZAC Day, and the opening of the traditional "outback tourist season" will all soon be upon us. Don't leave things to the last minute - research, chat, browse, buy and sell online with us.

"FOR HIRE" Classifieds

A first for ExplorOz.com - we now accept listings "For Hire or Rent", and this means that you may purchase listings in the Classifieds to promote specific items you have available for Hire or Rent, such as satellite phones, accommodation, vehicles etc.

To list in the "For Hire" category, you will need a Dealer listing - cost is $49.95 for a 3 month ad page. You can list any number of items during the time period and allows up to 7 images. As is standard for all "Dealer" ads, you may swap out items for others during the time period of your 3 month ad page using edit controls.
Ideal for small businesses without their own website and no requirement for Business Membership.

New Articles - Australian Identity

During the recent overall of our article section we have added a new section called "Australiana". As you travel and experience new parts of Australia, you might wish to look up facts on Nature, Culture, and History. This week, we added the first article to our Australian Identity sub-section in a timely prelude to ANZAC day coming up next month.

The legacy of the ANZACs fighting at Gallipoli is said to have shaped the nature of the Australian identity. This article gives a brief summary of Australian's involvement in war, including the Gallipoli campaign, and discusses the significance of ANZAC day celebrations in modern-day Australia today. It also contains many shared poems, quotes, and links to YouTube video clips that have been posted on ExplorOz in the Forum over many years as a unified collection. This year, we urge you to place any ANZAC Day comments into the YOUR SAY section of this article, rather than posted in the Forum (however as you know, all article comments create posts in the Forum too). This is a nice way to keep everything together for future readers to enjoy! You'll also find some great Australian Stories listed in related shop items at the bottom of the article if you want to read more about the Australian Identity. See The ANZAC Legacy article here.
