Thanks for all the positive feedback on the WiFi scale and app concept. 

A lot of people have been "waiting to see how it goes", well please don't wait any longer. There is now only 8 days left to go and we have a lot of ground to make up if this is to become a reality.

Remember if we don't reach the target we won't be able to develop this product at this time.

Thanks to everyone who came and said hello at the NZ conference in Taupo last week. Great to see so many beekeepers in one place and certainly a lot of excitment about where the industry is going. Always great to catch up with existing customers and put faces to names of new customers too. Welcome to those of you who signed up for the newsletter for the first time.

We were delighted with the response to the new product and the improvments to the gen 3.1 scales in particular. We will be producing some youtube clips shortly to show people the installation process and also how to set up alerts and some other things you can do with the on-line tools. 

Graham Beech reports a great Queensland conference as well and we are delighted to have a bunch of new customers on board following that.

Mark Page is at the NSW conference right now and we look forward to hearing how things are going over there.

After seeing some great photos at the conferences some of you may be interested in an International Bee Photo competition that has just opened, run by Vita Europe. See here.

The 2014 winner was this picture taken by Boštjan Tovornik of Slovenia.

They also have a gallery of hundreds of bee and beekeeping related photos available for anyone to use for education purposes and it is a fantastic resource.
