$1,300 dollar reason to be on Twitter

If there was any time to embrace technology and social networking, now is that time.

I logged into Twitter at work today at the start of my lunch break (of course), and checked my saved search for Rotorua. I quickly discovered some new promotion Vodafone was doing around the country, Find the 3G guy and win a Nokia N85.

Rotorua information website widget

Today I finished a information widget for rotoruaNZ.com that allows people to have the following on their own website. It uses an iFrame to show a page from the rotoruaNZ.com site.

Sledging down the Kaituna

This morning Jason and I ventured out to Kaitiaki Adventures for a little white water sledging adventure down the Kaituna River.

We arrived bang on 9am which is the time we were told to be there by, we then had to wait for the other customers to arrive as they were being picked up from town by the courtesy van.
