TucsonCitizen.com site update
The new version of the TucsonCitizen.com will be up Monday morning.
The redesigned site will have improved home page content and navigation and much improved individual blog pages.
Each blogger will be able to customize their blog and add features and functions available to WordPress blogs.
This version of the site is the ground floor of what we hope to be a very tall building of citizen journalist bloggers adding information and perspective about life in Tucson.
Be sure to check back Monday for the new and improved TucsonCitizen.com.
