What do you think of this site ?
 

Many of you probably know of and use the BBC "Where I Live" local web sites but do you actually like them and in particular this one for Leicestershire.
They are all quite similar.

If you wouldnt mind, please take a moment and check the site out and let me know if there is anything you find bad, not needed, good, or may be let me knoww if you feel something is missing from the site.
Is there something you feel a city has to know about that may be isnt being covered on this site.
Maybe you find the site adequate as it is.
Wether it is content, design, or something else, I'd appreciate your views.


The site can be found here:

Many thanks.

Aren't you working for BBC?

anyway, can't comment on Leicester because i've never been there, and the site for Reading is not fantastic...

Re: What do you think of this site ?
 

Yeah Im doing some work for them, just wanted to see what other people thought of the site as I may be moving into doing more website based work so wanted to see what people thought needs changing.

Obviosuly people of leicester are the main people we are asking but it is interesting to see what outsiders think who have never been to Leicester who may want to see different content, or things reflecting more county / tourist things to do, etc.

Thanks again those that take a look.

I visit Leicester regularly (my parents live there) and think that this website doesn't really give you the flavour of the place. Its not a bad website - it is informative and factual... I suppose it is very...BBC...:sleep: zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Wheres Leicester ?

Re: What do you think of this site ?
 

I live in Leicester and all I can say is it's a very empty website - it has very little info/news and doesn't seem to have a soul (if you know waht I mean). :erm:

Re: What do you think of this site ?
 

Yup, I never visit my local BBC website - there's just nothing on there worth visiting.

Re: What do you think of this site ?
 

Thankyou everyone for the views.
It does need some work to it and this will be taking place hopefully sometime soon.
Thanks again.

I love Leicester I reckon it's the best city in the East Midlands, I love going down the Melton Road.

Re: What do you think of this site ?
 

Nice to see someone liking the city.
It's got its good and bad points like every UK city.

Re: What do you think of this site ?
 

If you can show me a good bit I'll eat one those slabs their tarmacking over in the city centre. :D

lol

Basically Leicester will look nice one day......but we probably won't be around then.
I'd say it's good they are working on it but I sure wouldnt want to take some tourists round at the moment whilst all this building work is taking place.
