Astronomy Yearbook Survey

Hello all,

I know it sounds funny talking about 2010 already (especially seeing most of you wouldn't have seen our latest yearbook for 2009 yet), but Ken Wallace, Peter Northfield and myself are already looking towards our next yearbook, Astronomy 2010.

This will be our 20th book and we are looking at making some changes. Don't be concerned, this will not be changes for the sake of changing so as part of this we are running a survey of our readers. This covers things such as: what do you use the most and least, what we do well or need to explain/do better, what haven't we included that you would like to see? Please don't hold back, if you think something is a waste of space - tell us! If you are a beginner don't feel you are not qualified to comment, we want to hear from anyone who has used our books.

The survey is web based, and can be filled out on line at our Quasar Publishing website. go to

www.quasarastronomy.com.au

and click "Survey".

Thanking you all in advance.

Regards

Glenn

To Ric, Kev, Jen, Wade, jjjnetie, Ian, Scott and Al,

Thanks all of you for the kind words and I'll pass them onto Ken and Peter. It gives me a buzz to be associated with a product that is so valued (and a sense of responsibility as well).

Peter has indicated the online survey is working well, ain't technology wonderful (it's the first time we have tried something like this).

For those who haven't responded - please feel free.

Regards

Glenn
