Yahoo!7 Answers Australia

Our featured user this week is a true patriotic Australian! Ozmaniac is a top contributor in both the General – Australia and the NSW (Sydney) travel subcategories. It is her knowledge of Australian immigration and visas that has provided assistance to, no doubt, hundreds of potential Aussies.

Ozmaniac lives in Brisbane and has very diverse areas of interest. Her first job at 15 was as a calculator operator and she hasn’t looked back since. This role led to the computer industry, and she says, “I’ve worked in the computer industry since long before it was an industry.” She has also bred cats and loves sports, especially Australian Rules.

Despite all her experiences, Ozmaniac feels most at home in the Travel – Australia category on Answers. Her background knowledge of immigration and visas stem from family contacts who work in the immigration department. She believes that Australia is crying out for skilled immigrants and she does her best to help them understand the minefield of rules and requirements that need to be satisfied in order to gain a visa.

She also likes to answer questions about books and authors, local businesses, computers and babies (she was a volunteer breastfeeding advisor for years) and anything else that takes her fancy as it appears on the Home page.

In her own words:

I discovered Answers by accident in April this year when I was searching for some info (on dishwasher salt of all things), but was immediately hooked. I think it’s a fantastic resource for people to get information and advice on just about any subject and I’m pleased to be able to contribute. I’ve only ever asked a handful of questions, but each time, I received some great and very useful answers.

Thanks Ozmaniac!
