EdinburghMenus.com - the story so far
Welcome to the first post on the EdinburghMenus.com blog!
EdinburghMenus.com has been in development for over a year now. What started as a small experiment with the new (at the time) GoogleMaps API and as means of learning PHP/MySQL has developed into a full-blown restaurant and takeaway guide for Edinburgh with a big emphasis on user generated content.
Development has taken a while as there’s been so much to learn in the process. Ever increasing ambitions for the site; desires to incorporate more and more complex features and the sheer scale of the project have taken their toll!
But the site is nearly finished! The site in its current state is now live. It is certainly not finished and there are undoubtedly bugs to be squished, creases to be ironed out and rough edges to be… erm… unroughened.
So please, get involved! The site is here to be used - have a look around, write some reviews, edit some listings, mark your favourite businesses, invite your friends. You don’t have to sign up to write reviews on the site, but to edit listings you do. Sign up soon while the short usernames are still available!
Hopefully I’ll find time at least once a week to post here about the site. If you have any comments, complaints or feature requests, please leave a comment or get in touch - we’d love to here from you.
