We've been working on a new resource over the past year called Citified. Since 2006 VibrantVictoria has been comprised of a discussion forum, construction-related articles and the major construction projects list. Citified will be separating out the articles and construction data into a formal resource with a significantly higher volume of data on projects throughout the capital region together with articles.

 

We expect to be up and running by the spring of this year. At that time, VibrantVictoria will become a standalone forum. The two websites will, however, operate hand-in-hand as far as construction information and linking of materials are concerned, much like what we do now with the major construction projects list.

 

Although we haven't pushed social media quite yet, find us on Facebook at http://www.facebook....itifiedvictoria and on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/citifiedyyj

I like that you are trying to expand into something new.

I don't quite understand the concept at this point.

Can I compare this to having two threads discussing similar topics or projects,

just like when we all get off topic from time to time,

except now it will happen on separate websites?

Citified is a construction resource that can be thought of as a database of construction activity and a construction-related media outlet that is geared towards consumers and real-estate professionals. Citified will list VV threads as the comments on project entries while VV project threads will refer to Citified data in the header. There will not be any functional overlap between the two sites (nothing on VV's forum will change). Long story short, VV will remain a forum, Citified will become a database of construction projects.

We'll have lots more to show in the coming weeks, including the opportunity for VV'ers to preview the site before it goes live.

Great site and resource.

 

Question re: a development's 'page' - is there a reason a link to their own web site isn't listed - or is that only for developers that pay you for Citified Plus?

Glad you like it.

 

And yes that is correct. With Citified Plus a project profile has approximately 30 additional pieces of data including a direct link to the project's website and social media links.
