A Spanish Life

I love the idea of the Spanish Life websites however I notice that none of them have actual information about the town/village that they cover. It would be good if there was a page where you have local information - maybe information about the town itself, phone numbers for local services such as the police, town hall and doctors etc. details of the fiestas - pages not for advertising.

If the site is about a specific area surely this is information that would be useful?

The other thing that I have noticed as I flick through the sites is that a lot of the same posts are appearing on each site. It seems that as I am registered on the Benijofar Life website I can post on any site in the group (and indeed have!!). Whilst I like the idea of being able to flick between the sites, it does get a bit boring seeing the same posts on each wall particularly when they are advertising posts.

I agree with your point about lack of information pertaining to each town. I guess this is down to the person responsible for each site and while its easy to preach from the floor when were not doing the job I would still say to the site providers c'mon lets have some more deatailed and purposeful information relative to each area

Thank you for your comments, it seems that you have missed all the post and information that has been sent out on the Daily Diary that explains the new feature that is being added to the site called "My Spanish Life"

On this feature everyone will be able to add information about the area as well as pictures and articles that they feel is relevant. The idea of A Spanish Life is to offer everyone a platform to share information and advise to others. So all will be able to add to these pages.

As for the same post appearing on each site, you will find that as more people join the other area sites you will have a lot more content to read and the repeated adverts will not be as common.

This sounds like a good idea - will look forward to seeing it. Do you know when it will go live?
