Westnet's New Photo Service!

Great news! Westnet's MyFoto Service is being upgraded to provide our members with a better online photo service; allowing you to store, share and print your digital memories.

From the 12th September, members will no longer be able to upload photos to their MyFoto account. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause but look forward to welcoming everyone to the new Westnet Photo Centre powered by Snapfish in early October.

Existing MyFoto customers will automatically have their photos migrated to the new service during September.

The new Westnet Photo Centre is powered by Snapfish, a division of Hewlett-Packard. The service offers the following benefits:

1. Free unlimited storage of all your digital photos
2. Free unlimited sharing with friends and family
3. Prints just 15c each delivered directly to your front door
4. A wide range of photo gifts for all occasions
5. Free online photo editing tools

MyFoto will close in early October and MyFoto customers will receive notification via email of how to access their new Westnet Photo Centre account.

With a Federal election just around the corner, there's been a whole lot of promising, denying and baby kissing going on lately. While both sides have been spruiking policies, we watched with great interest last week as the National Broadband Network (NBN) briefly took centre stage.

A couple of month's back we brought you some background information on the NBN and the advancements in broadband on the horizon for one and all. This month we bring you an update on the Government's plans for its initial mainland rollout.

If you're big on staying connected, you might know of a few WiFi hotspots in your area where you have access wireless internet. If you're not familiar with this technology, we take a closer look at how you might be able to take advantage of a handy web connection the next time you're out and about.

This month we've also managed to squeeze in three great movie giveaways, with passes to see Tomorrow When the War Began, The Other Guys and Going the up for grabs. Get your entries in and good luck!

Hope you're braving the last of the winter weather; here's to sunshine on the horizon!

Remember, if you have any comments or recommendations for the Westnet Newsletter please email us at newsletter@westnet.com.au. We trust you will enjoy our August edition and we wish you the best of luck for our competitions!

Until next month...
