Open Threads and Facebook Page

We’ve been getting a lot of great feedback and suggestions from readers and perusers, so we wanted to make everyone aware of some new additions to the site:

1) Open Threads
Many people have concerns, questions and topics that they would love to see covered on Sloopin. We are going to do our best to follow these topics but are also hoping for help from our readers. With that said, we are going to start some open threads that ideally will serve as conversations and as a place for the greater South Loop community to discuss rumors, pose questions and tackle issues that might be hot topics. The goal is to have topics that readers will comment on and provide their opinions.

We will start with some basic topics, but feel free to email us at sloopin@gmail.com to suggest other topics you would like to see covered. You will find the “Open Threads” listed at the top toolbar.

2) Facebook Page
We’ve started a Sloopin Facebook page for a couple of reasons. A) Most everyone is on Facebook these days, so it will hopefully serve as a good place to find and converse with residents or people interested in the Sloop. B) There is a “Discussions” tab that allows Sloopin fans to talk about issues or whatever they want. Again, this hopefully will prove to be a good resource for the neighborhood.

There is a Facebook logo on the right side of Sloopin. Simply click on that and it will direct you to our Facebook page for you to become a fan.

Thanks for the support and keep the feedback coming!
