Related Web sites

We've received a number of requests to expand the blog so that visitors could post subjects they wished to discuss in their own words; unfortunately a blog does not allow this. So what we have done is opened two new web sites for everyone.

www.winchesterinformer.com .. Is modeled after the former Winchester Informed Citizen and we hope to continue in the tradition, by bringing you up to date information on important issues in our town.

http://talkback.winchesterinformer.com/ .. Is a new discussion forum set up to promote open discussions on a range of topics that is entirely up to you. You may view any open discussion on the site; however to post a comment or open a new topic you will have to register. Information regarding registration is posted on the forum. We hope all of the citizens of Winchester will take an interest and freely speak what's on your mind.

Both sites are works in progress, so please forgive the construction as we continue to develope both. If you have ideas you'd like to share with us on ways we can improve the sites, please contact us. .. winchesterinformer@gmail.com

Information is the food of thought, come and share your views and comments and get involved with the workings of our town. Working together we can make Winchester a town we can all be proud of.

Our web page is almost completed. Some of the information on that page is linked to other sites and in the form of PDF files. Until we can upload all of this info to our own server we ask that to help these other sites avoid increased hosting fees, download PDF files to your hard drive where you can view it without causing them any inconvenience. Try clicking on the link with the right mouse button and selecting 'save link as'. If you are on the Mac and using a one-button mouse, simply hold down the Ctrl key while pressing on the link to bring up a menu for downloading.
Our talk back forum is also up and running. We've had several people already register. We hope you will find the information posted useful and the opportunity to sound off on issues important to you as well as just getting to know other people in town a worthwhile experience. We hope to see you on both of these new boards.
