We are pleased to offer a small promotional push to the website for those of you living in the PO6 part of the City. Launched by Haley Storey in March 2006, the About My Area website is now providing an impressive amount of accurate, up to date local information. Here at InPortsmouth we are well aware of how much work must be put into such a site to make it function well for the community and so we gladly raise a glass to Hayley and wish her much success.
 

And if you hadn't already noticed there's a new local radio station on the air. Welcome to ExpressFM on 93.7. Broadcasting from facilities provided by Portsmouth University and with a strong community feel to it's schedules it's no surprise to see a lengthy list of heavyweight partners backing ExpressFM to succeed. For a quick sample go to www.expressfm.com/ and listen in now.
 

For those of you not already aware, the InPortsmouth and InSouthsea websites are but the most prominent tip of a growing stable of sites produced by Community Internet Services. The company set out in 1998 to create a local Portsmouth community of sites on the net and has now reached the sum of 40 local sites out of a portfolio of 75. InPortsmouth remains as our flagship but, as ever, we are aware that it is gradually going out of date. We apologise if this has caused any inconvenience but we have now almost completed the review of our listings. This has meant weeding out the obsolete references but we still need to know of new businesses opening in their place.
 

Our skills as web designers were recognised in March 2007 when we were shortlisted for a Hantsweb Award for our Memorials in Portsmouth website. In other areas we have recently revamped two sites for the City Council's Health Improvement & Development Services and are continuing to develop sites for Albert Road Traders and Portsmouth & Southsea Hoteliers.
 

One of the ongoing projects that has given us most satisfaction is our work with the various Mental Health organisations in Portsmouth which is expressed through the thinkingAHEAD website. Through building this site we have been able to watch the Mental Health Services at work and we're rather impressed by the support that is currently offered people with mental heath problems. See for yourself on the front page of the site.
