Edition 328: Hi ExplorOz Reader, We hope you enjoy this week's edition of our newsletter with all the latest information about what's happening on the website. Australia's Top Places to See | 
| Earlier this year, the ExplorOz audience were asked to nominate Australia's Top Places to See. The results are now out in this NEW article published on ExplorOz.com yesterday.
Unlike the mainstream sectors of tourism, the ExplorOz community of travellers really know how to find the real outback so check out what's in this list and let us know if you agree by posting a review/comment in the article. Read the New Article Here |
| How to send a Direct Link to your EOTrackMe page
| 
| Further to the new updates to EOTrackMe released last week, we've now added a super-easy way for you to send a custom-link to your family so that they can find your tracking page without any searching or browsing on ExplorOz. | All you need to do is go to the new "Direct Link" button, which you'll find in your Device Settings (along with the "Edit Device" and "Get Embed Code" buttons).
When you click the "Direct Link" button, you'll see a link that you simply copy and paste into an email, which you would then send to family/friends. (If you have more than 1 device, or change your device, you'll need to make sure that you send them the appropriate link).
Provided you are a Member, and have registered a device to EOTrackMe, and have some tracking currently in the system recorded by this device, then this link will open directly to the screen showing your tracking path & daily log. If you are just setting up your device and have not done any test tracking outside your Geofence (your security zone) then the link will simply show the standard EOTrackMe map the clusters of other travellers on the map. Once you begin travelling however, the link will automatically detect and show your tracking data.
