We've been so busy over the past few months and realised that our blog has now become rather.. static. And well, there's no fun in that is there?!
We now aim to keep you updated more frequently and in short bursts (we heard you like it that way!) so we'll be moving our blogging over to microblogging site Twitter.com. This change is reflective to how we work here at Econeve - we love informative simplicity.
Expect daily tweets, updates from the team, news, tips, tricks and a lot more. Follow us now and tweet a thing or two @econeve
