Coming Soon! Iowa City Patch Gets a New Look (And That's Just for Starters)

Ready for some exciting news? Here at Patch, we’re getting a whole new look.

It’s coming next week and it’s going to make Iowa City Patch easier to use, and a better place to connect and share.

The best part? You’ll be able to see it all on your mobile phone.

Here’s what you need to know:  

Our site is being rebuilt from the ground up. The news will look better and be easier to comment on. And, you’ll find more local voices to keep you in the loop with the latest know-how and opinion.

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, and 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 next week. For a sneak peek, check out East Haven Patch, a site that has been working on the new platform for awhile now.
