Billbennett.co.nz is a technology news, opinion and analysis site. The site looks at tech from a New Zealand perspective and about half the stories are local in scope.

As an independent freelance journalist, your contribution will go towards the expenses I incur in order to bring you quality technology news and analysis.

These expenses include maintaining the website, attending conferences and a modest income to enable me to spend more time writing.

Cheers,
Bill Bennett
