There’s probably a lot of you not on Twitter yet, but Twitter’s how Stephen and Danny are letting us know how they’re going in Vegas,  so I’m bringing Twitter to blogging!

‘Tweet-blogging‘ is the art of blogging in under 140 characters, and each message is a ‘Bleet‘ (a tweet on a blog). For example…

Here’s another one…

Murphy’s law – the guy’s display screen dies the morning of the show. Luckily they’re able to grab a replacement in the nick of time!

I’ll keep bleeting and let you know how they’re getting on – I hear poker might be on the cards tonight

Cheers, Nigel

Happy New Year!

Hope you’ve enjoyed a break from work and managed to spend time with your friends and family.

2009 looks set to be interesting, changes in world leadership, economic policies, spending habits and a whole bunch of really important stuff that will have an influence on how people live day to day.

It’s not all doom and gloom though, and there’s plenty of advice on the Queensberry blog from veterans suggesting ways to weather the storm.

And remember PJ’s annual subscription is zero now, so delete the line for album planning software from your budget and go out to tea (that’s dinner here) “on us”

Cheers, Danny (on behalf of Team PJ)

Ed te Pas used his photoshop skills for this cheeky image.

Thanks again mate.

Johannes and Jo of Moda Fotografica  sent this clever shot through to us.

I was lucky enough to try their local Lyttelton coffee shop when I was speaking at an NZIPP meeting a few months back, and the coffee much, like the town, was just charming.

Thanks guys!

Danny (and Team PJ)

Can’t believe Danny and Stephen interrupted a perfectly legit wedding to grab this shot (in Switzerland)

Our ‘PJ Remix Loves U‘ promo is over, but our little button has been popping up all over the place. Which means we’ve been giving away heaps of 12-month PJ Remix subs.

Thanks to all those who posted a review. Here are some of our favs…

- Top marks to Karen Dahlquist from Happyfish. Not only was she one of the first to review, but also one of most in-depth. Karen runs a design service with PJ, in case you’re tempted.

- Dean Kaus raved about PJ Remix on his blog – flexible is our middle name

- Vito Amati shared how PJ Remix fits into and streamlines his workflow

- Jennifer Bowen from Jennifer Bowen Photography gave us a run down of some of her favourite PJ Remix features (including it’s drag-and-drop interface, export functionality and template management). 

Thanks again to all those who reviewed.

Stephen and I are planning to attend Photokina as visitors (not exhibitors).

We’d love to catch up one night and chat – maybe over a beer.

We offered you PJ Remix free for twelve months in return for a review on your blog or forum, and we’ve noticed quite a few already. Thank you!

But Karen Dahlquist went the extra mile. Karen is an album designer with lots of professional experience using both Retro and Remix, and she offers lots of thoughtful commentary. Thank you Karen. If we say so ourselves, it’s worth a read.

Apologies to Woodsy for messing with his image.
