Asher is keen to receive the latest and greatest on new technologies relating to any of the areas he covers. He is best contacted on e-mail – asher.moses@cnet.com.au CNET.com.au also has an expanded team of freelancers for 2006 with David Braue, David Flynn and David McAmis on board covering news, features and reviews on the latest releases. You are, of course, free to contact individual editors about specific matters directly, but all press releases and invitations should be sent to cnetmedia@cnet.com.au. This ensures that the whole team is aware of your event or announcement. Although we have areas of specialisation, at times we need to allocate resources depending on workloads, so it’s best to use our editorial email so that the whole team is notified and nothing important slips through the cracks.
