Some feedback on the White Hat Website | "this site is fantastic, easiest way to see what is going on around town"
Remy 2 November 2005"Thank you for your witty, intelligent and informative newsletter. For those who love Melbourne, it is a real treat."
Michael 10 October 2005"GREAT SITE. Better info than any other on events. Thank you for providing such a service!"
Victoria 10 September 2005
"We (myself, husband and 5 and 8 yo) decide to take your advice {in
the White Hat newsletter] on Sunday and
headed into the city using our Sunday Saver tickets. We didn't quite make to
The Potter as we got side-tracked visiting The Magic Tent at the Art Centre,
followed by a visit to The Ian Potter Centre where the kids took part in the
NGV's Biggest (Kids) Drawing Ever. We now have to make sure we go back in
Sept for them to see the finished product. We then caught the tram to
Gasworks where we had a lovely time talking to Children's Illustrator Ann
James. My daughters were thrilled to be read a book which doesn't go on the
shelves for months yet (they were told they only about the 10th people to
hear it) and then we had a leisurely browse of the bookshop while the rain
poured down outside. The girls chose a book each, raced back up the stairs
to get Ann James to sign the one illustrated by her, and then we finished
with hot drinks in the cafe and a look at some of the artwork. A great way
to spend a rainy day and it cost us very little."

Steve 30 March 2005"I like getting all this info...it's easier using your web site and email than searching What's On in Melbourne via Google - ( search by date? by subject? - if you know all that you don't need to search, that's why White Hat is good)."
Di 2 September 2004"The White Hat site is amazing - I can't believe how many things happen in this city that I don't take full advantage of! I have a friend visiting from Brisbane in a fortnight's time, and this site has helped me with dozens of ideas for what to do while he's here. Keep up the excellent work!"

White Hat criticism of Grocery Choice vindicated?
In August 2008 the Australian Government launched its
Grocery Choice website as part of an election promise which it said
would combat grocery price rises by publicising individual item price comparisons
between major distributors. White Hat believed to model was flawed
from the start and gave our reasons in the strong criticism we in
our food newsletter published two days after the launch of the site.
In June, the Australian Government suddenly and unexpectedly
terminated the scheme. You can read White Hat's initial criticisms
which could also prove useful in the implementation of any future
scheme at

White Hat helps change government policy on
recycling of long life light bulbs
In the White Hat Environment Newsletter
of April 2009 we warned of the gangers of sending compact
fluorescent lightbulbs (CFLs) to landfill. Since that time, the
government has changed its policy and we believe that White Hat had
an influence. read more >> |
