I get it that you get it, but wow, it's amazing how many people don't get it. At news10 website a survey said most people are NOT doing anything to save water. At Sac Bee website, most commenters are spewing vitriol about the drought being a pinko plot, "cuz, see! it's raining!" Big gap in public understanding.
Okay, so maybe I misunderstood the premise. Sounds like the hasty-email-to-a-pal ambiance is what you're after, after all. The conversation is as important as the original article, anyone can submit -- more like a discussion site maybe, than articles in a magazine? That's perfectly good; sortuvan over-the-fence chat among neighbors about what's going on in town -- it's just not what I thought I was getting when I came to this site. Maybe the name "Press" led me astray,
I haven't been reading SacPress for long and don't entirely understand its structure, but my impression thus far is um, well, kinda hate to say this, but sometimes the writing is pretty bad. It doesn't have to be Pulitzer-worthy, but at least the spelling and grammar should be above the hasty-email-to-a-pal level. For instance, why a comma after "Paper" in the slogan "Paper is old news"? Is there a submission process? Any editorial review? What I like about the site is getting a little insight into local Sacramento from local Sacramentoans. Things that aren't necessarily big-time news, but are interesting to newcomers and old-timers. Like the big lemons. That's fun.
Conversation about: Another reason to go out to dinner
This sounds great! Can you give us some hint, like on a scale of $ to $$$$$, about how much we would need to be able to spend?
