Des Moines Alive

Holy Busy. I've been meaning to post this for 3 days now. ...But the big news is: Nick and I's little project is finally done!

A while ago, I had an idea to make an informational site about all the best places to go in Des Moines. It seemed like there were so many gold mines in the area that not enough people knew about... I wanted to promote the places that deserve it, and not promote the places that don't.

Thus, I talked to Nick about it, and we made a pretty sick little site. Go Team. We rule. A lot.

So yeah, check out www.desmoinesalive.com. Please submit content. Mainly reviews/ratings. Locations that we forgot would also be extremely awesome - TO THE EXTREME!!!!

    I love this site. It's smoke free and has great daily specials. I give it 5 stars.

    Hey broox, I wrote a review for the Yankee Clipper, and now it doesn't show. Is there a delay?

    Yeah, when you submit a review we have to approve it first... I'll approve it once I get out of this meeting.

    Over my lunch hour either today or thursday, I'll try and write as many reviews as I can. Cool website, and I will definently use it when it fills with reviews.

    I left some reviews of the places I have been. You don't really have to put the one I wrote for Aura up, though. It's pretty much just a joke for you to read. Are you going to put concert venues up? I didn't see the Val Air Ballroom or that 7 Flags Center (or whatever that place is called) up for reviews.
