The latest issue of what has to be the oddest looking website in Almeria is out.
Featuring such interesting snippets as a bio for “Dodge” Ric Polansky, “A history of Tapas”, “Spanish Petrol Scam” and more!
Actually, this is one website that gets to me; if only they would publish it in a proper web format instead of “straight from print”, with the effort they put into it they could make it quite a success. Add some vertical online advertising (adwords, doubleclick, maybe amazon and few others) to monitise the web space and with the classifieds you could have a decent income from it each month. Instead they insist on putting it online in this dratted print format, so lots of scrolling and clicking around the page to see where they put the link, lots of backwards linking because you can’t remember the page number of the article, etc. I must write to Ian and complain.
(As an aside, the “Spanish Petrol Scam” he seems annoyed about on Page 4 doesn’t, on face value, seem any different then Europcar or Hertz petrol policy. But yes, it’s a pain having to refill the tank if you don’t use all of it!)
