New stuff on the right-hand menu...

Posted December 5, 2002 11:59 AM.

I've added a couple of nice little things to the right-hand menu of the site today. You can now talk to people who live near me and work near me via UpMyStreet Conversations. The site's progressing quite well - there are more conversations every day and new uses for the software keep emerging. Some people are just asking about areas they are moving to, debating London's new congestion charges or complaining (at length) about layabout teenagers - but others are using it to answer very specific questions or even just to meet new people. I'd love it if UK webloggers decided to put a link to their local areas on their weblogs - I think that could really make it a useful and interesting place to relate to your local geography... But I guess I'll just have to wait and see if that takes off...
