Great blog you've got here......Hey there guys! Great blog you've got here...<br /><br />My name is Zack, I am a content and marketing editor at NabeWise.com, which is designed to help people who are moving or traveling to a new city find a neighborhood that is right for them. Since your blog is focused on highlighting the various neighborhoods of Chicago, I feel our site would be of great interest to you and your readers. <br /><br />A bit about NabeWise: the site is designed to explore cities from the neighborhood level. Users can view individual neighborhoods, rate them across a large number of attributes, and add their own personal reviews. The site uses extensive mapping data, real estate data, and user inserted data to develop a cohesive picture of the individual neighborhoods in a city. One of the most exciting tools on the site is known as the Nabefinder. This is where users can see a map of the city they are interested in and choose various attributes such as price, transit, types of people, restaurants, etc, to sort neighborhoods by, eventually leaving them with a short list of neighborhoods that fit their needs. <br /><br />I would love it if you would check out the site, explore some of your favorite neighborhoods, and see if you believe they are represented accurately. Please add content if you desire and feel free to add it under the name of the blog. Some other bloggers have done that and it has helped to spread their name even further<br /><br />Let me know what you think and if you have any questions about NabeWise or have any feedback for us! We also just launched our NabeWise Chicago Twitter account at NabeWiseChicago, so feel free to follow :) We'll also be tweeting neighborhood-related blog posts from our featured bloggers, too.<br /><br />Thank you for your time! If you have questions, or would like to chat about anything, send me an email!<br /><br />Zack Walker<br />Content, Marketing<br />NabeWise...Explore Neighborhoods!<br />zack@nabewise.comZachary Walkerhttp://nabewise.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3745853352605490549.post-79438654847531300932011-01-20T20:28:34.992-06:002011-01-20T20:28:34.992-06:00Edgerz, thank you for your comments. First of all...Edgerz, thank you for your comments. First of all, you're right, Kenmore is a street and Kenwood is the neighborhood, apologies for the error. Secondly, our trip to Hyde Park was unfortunately limited due to mostly bad weather (it was cold and pouring on New Year's Eve). We would LOVE to go back to Hyde Park and plan on doing so in the future. That way, we'll hopefully have a (slightly) more comprehensive look at the neighborhood. In all honesty, this was a new area for us, and look forward to visiting the places you suggest.<br /><br />That being said, we really appreciate you reading our blog, and hope you keep following it. We're always open to suggestions, and are grateful for any comments we get. Thanks again!Laura and Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16454065247071768193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3745853352605490549.post-83045502326550282432011-01-19T22:58:26.947-06:002011-01-19T22:58:26.947-06:00Ok ouch....sorry to correct u but obamA's hous...Ok ouch....sorry to correct u but obamA's house is located in the neighborhood of KENWOOD...not Kenmore, which is a street on the northside. You missed many hot. Spots like the tiki lounge and jimmy's for local bars. Also not a mention of the 57th street business district is huge omission. I realize u cannot touch on everything.... but the above plus "the point" and the japanese garden are also must sees. I still enjoy ur blog, as a new follower, but hyde park deserves another look.russkz@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01541588709097138416noreply@blogger.com
