Summary: Welcoming contributions from more people, more voices

AS longtime or regular readers may have noticed, quite inevitably, lately we've published quite a few guest posts. Today, for example, guest posts outnumbered my own. This is good and it is a desirable thing. A diversity of views, interepreations, sources and opinions make us more likely to find truths. Perspectives may vary based on one's background.

"We're not a business but a platform for the public."We're happy to say that we now have regular guest posts from the United States, Europe and Asia (India). If anyone else wishes to submit an article, reach us on bytesmedia@bytesmedia.co.uk and we can help with proofreading etc. We're not a business but a platform for the public. ⬆
