Coming Soon! RSM Patch Gets a New Look

There's some exciting news to share about Patch. The website is getting a whole new look! It’s scheduled to take place on Tuesday night and it’s going to make Rancho Santa Margarita Patch easier to use, and a better place to connect and share.

One of the aspects of the new Patch that many are most excited about is the ease with which you'll be able to interact with Patch—and the community—on your mobile phone! Traffic jammed because of an accident? A photo you take with your cell phone camera can be on the site in less time than it takes for a stoplight to turn green.

Here’s what you need to know:  

We’re including more great stories from your neighbors, right on the homepage. So you’ll have all of our local reporting, plus the latest know-how and opinion from local bloggers.

We’re adding Boards to make it easier for you to connect with each other, debate an issue or announce your garage sale, graduation or find a lost pet.

More to say? It will be easier to start your own blog, too. You’ll soon be able to start your own blog anytime, so you can have a stronger voice in the community—or just share your expertise and opinion. And if you’re already a Local Voices blogger, these tools are much more streamlined and straightforward.

You’ll see all of this (and more) on Patch in a few days, and you'll want to check out Patch more often. For a sneak peek, check out Stonington-Mystic Patch.
