I was glad to read your post about everyblock and how this website is different. Thanks for all you do Justin.

Hello! I was also disappointed to learn of Everyblock's demise. I responded by starting a Facebook page "McKinley Park Community and Events." I regularly re-post information from this site (hope you don't mind) as well as a host of others and encourage all members to contribute anything pertinent to the community. I wasn't sure if people would care but a ton of folks have told me that they appreciate all the information. If you're on Facebook, please take a moment to join the group!

P.S. It is the "McKinley Park Community and Events" group. There are a couple other McKinley Park groups that are used for different purposes.

Thanks for your feedback, Scott and Evelkitty!

There is much more that can be done with this Web site and how it connects to the local community. It would be great to see more talk here (along the lines of Everyblock), but I know it takes time to get to that point.

Scott, could you provide the URL for your Facebook group? I'm joining now. One of the things on my to-do list for McKinleyPark.org is to build out the Neighborhood > Web Directory area, and I definitely want to include links to relevant Facebook groups.

Any and all other suggestions are welcome. Thanks again! :cheer:
