Evernote is mostly right to assume that if you've made it to their website, you already have some idea why you're there.
Thank you for the Lifehacker info, I'll check it out.

Here's how the Aus site describes itself in About Us:

Part technology guide, part productivity tool, Lifehacker helps you organise your workday and maximise your playtime. We provide tips for technology and for life which you can use to make yourself more productive, with an emphasis on free software and tools you can put to use online.

Lifehacker Australia runs all the best tips and posts from the US, eliminating the ones that are irrelevant for Aussies and adding our own daily helping of tips and tricks with an Australian focus. If you want to access the US site, you can go to us.lifehacker.com.

Our tips are sorted into seven main categories – Communicate, Design, Fix, Money, Organise, Travel and Work – and tagged so they’re easy to browse and locate.

........................

I note that there's a choice of the US or Japan sites to flick to.

Thanks again!
