Good morning, Jamie, and a hearty welcome to Go-Lo! It's great to have you with us -- and we think you'll find our site productive as well as interesting and enjoyable.

To get the most out of the site, you may want to take a few minutes to join several of our many other groups besides Australia which you might find of particular interest, such as Media Only, California, Sports, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Hotels/Motels, Resorts Corner, Eating/Drinking the World, Senior Travelers, and various others covering many topics and most countries throughout the world.

FYI, on your profile you'll see a blue bar marked "Text Box," which you can turn into a box containing not just text but also photos and even videos about yourself, your interests, publications, and travels.

Finally, if you would, please be so kind as to spread the word among your travel-interested friends, family, and colleagues. It's fast and easy to use our "INVITE" function above left on the navigation bar to enter e-mails (even your whole list at once!). We would of course also be grateful if you have any occasion to cover us in any of your outlets.

We wish you a great rest of 2009 and look forward to hearing more from you... !
