"I don't know if you've noticed, but it's 2012 and we still don't have a Manchester listings magazine."
We've had one for 2 years - it's called Chimp... in local newsagents...

I told them they should sell it in the new BBC canteen...

I would be remiss if I didn't point you to Go See This http://www.goseethis.com/ , which has tons of mcr events info and a searchable database. And the monthly event radar features on Creative Tourist, the site I run http://www.creativetourist.com/news-culture/news-and-blog/event-radar-january (okay, shameless plug there...)

That sounds great. I often think, "what can I...

That sounds great. I often think, "what can I do this weekend" and look on the internet but I'd love to go to one place and find out what's on. x

Hi Chrissy,

Roam - great title. Funding is always a huge problem. Even for an online-only magazine you generally need way more money than people think, unless everyone involved is willing to work for free and make it their main job... a tall order.

Chimp is still going, but it's a bit different than the comprehensive listings magazine I was talking about.

And yes, we do have blogmeets from time to time. And it's about time to do one. Thanks for the reminder, I'll post here when we organise one.

Interesting post Kate. I remember trying to get a Manchester based travel magazine (whuch IMHO had a great title "roam") many moons ago, pre Wanderlust, using an Apple and basic clip art. But funding was a trouble as was the energy of my main 2 collaborators.

I await Wire - goof luck! and a paper based City Life type listings mag asap. What happened to Chimp?

On other matters do Manchester bloggers have any informal get togethers? I would like to get more connetced with all these wonderful folk!

Thx
