InBerkeley

I just picked an acceptable theme, but it isn’t what we really want. I agree wholeheartedly with your principle of simplicity, but I think we want a design that has visual distinction and the uses tabs — so users can go straight to events, property, politics, podcasts, and so on.

What other elements should we include. I have noted down so far:

• calendar of events
• podcasts
• property (as a category)
• politics (as a category)
• feed of Berkeley news from elsewhere
• maps — in all sorts of ways

What about things to look at. Here’s a quick round-up from my scans:

• SFGate’s Alameda site
• A Better Oakland
• Our PDX (Portland)
• ChiTown Daily News
• Brownstoner

Other ideas?
