Proud to support the Edinburgh City Region Brand

Monday, May 5th, 2008

As part of our ongoing quest to become the most amazingest website in all of the world, we’ve redesigned the footer of EdinburghMenus.com to make it more beautiful and to give more quick links to useful parts of the site.

Edinburgh - Inspiring CapitalBut probably the most noticable difference is the addition of the Edinburgh - Inspiring Capital logo. We’re proud to be an Edinburgh-based website, rather than one of the many national or international consumer review sites you find cluttering up the internet. Our knowledge of Edinburgh is what makes us stand out from all those other websites that just rip all their business listings out of Thomson Local!

In other news 

We’ve tweaked a couple of other bits other site recently, to make navigating around the site a bit quicker and easier:

  • If you search for a business and get exactly 1 match, rather than show you the search results, we’ll just send you straight to the listing for that business.
  • If you hover over the link to a business anywhere on the site (eg. in the recent reviews on the home page) you’ll get a popup giving you a map and basic details about that business.
  • We’ve added a list of similar businesses nearby below the map on the listing page for each business.

And that’s about it for now. More new features currently being worked on, as always! As ever, let us know if you have any comments on the new features or if there’s anything you’d like added.

Can you tell what it is yet?
