On The Horizon

Hi Vegas fans,

As I continue to update the website, the book, and this blog, I'm encouraged by possibilities and ideas that will really launch this idea and get people talking about Vegas, how to make traveling to Vegas easier, etc.

The result of all this will probably include a re-design of the website soon. Probably more back-end stuff than look/feel, but maybe a fresh coat of paint would be nice. Still toying with that idea. One thing you should note is that you may need to register your username and password again. You'll see a new Home page with instructions when this happens, and it will be a very simple process. I just want to ensure that new users can easily log in and find the information they are looking for, and as always the registration to become a member will be free with no obligation, no emails or spam sent to you, and your privacy is protected.

Another idea I've been toying with for a while is adding new tables to the website/book. They are already pretty labor-intensive, but it's a labor of love, so I don't mind doing it. My initial thought is to cover stuff that's hard to find elsewhere. For example, how about a "Spa" table that details the wonderful treatments you can get in many casinos and other areas around town? How does that sound?

I'm also thinking about beer... well, beer and Las Vegas specifically (I'm usually thinking about beer in some capacity). It would be fun to cover beer/drinks in Vegas, though I have not thought too much about in what detail. Sounds like it would be a good experiment the next time I visit, no?
For me, Vegas is all about fun, escapism, and keeping up with the fast-paced life. What better way to discover it than through the Simplified! view.

Viva,
Mike
