Summary
Bonjour podcast listeners
You haven't heard from me in a while because I have been busy working on the new version of the Join Us in France website
I am delighted to announce that it is now live and I am really happy with how it has turned out. It's not perfect, but it is soooo much better than the old one!
I would love you to help me out and take a few minutes to visit the site using your favorite browser, type in joinusinfrance.com and let me know how it goes. If you see anything that doesn't work, or looks strange, or have suggestions on how to improve it even more, please shoot me an email annie@joinusinfrance.com or leave a message on 1-801-806-1015.
Several of you have already responded to my request for feedback on the Facebook group, thank you so much, I would love to hear from more of you and I will fix things as fast as possible.
I want to point out a couple of the features of the new site:
Easier navigation: everything is organized around Destinations, Interests, and Resources.
There is also a new map that you can click on and it will take you to all the episodes that have to do with that part of France. That feature used to be on the old website and it had been created by Matt, but it was complicated to me to update so it was woefully out of date. This map is going to stay up to date!
Easier to read: instead of having one loooong blog post per episode, you now have a short episode introduction, plus a button for show notes, another for transcript and another that says guest notes. I'm working to provide that for all episodes, but as of this recording there are about 70 episodes where I haven't done it yet. But it's so much easier to read when things are split up nicely!
My husband has taken a lot of time out of his vacation to help me with this and I must say I would have never gotten it done without his technical know-how and his encouragement. Thank you so much David!
And while I haven't taken the time to release new episodes, I have recorded several over the summer and I will start releasing them soon. Promise, I'll stop tinkering with the site and will actually put out new wonderful trip reports with several of you.
So, I'll talk to you again soon and please give me some feedback on the new Join Us in France site, you can help me make it even better!
Au revoir!

| 1:36.7 | it's easy for me to keep up with it so it'll stay you know any new episodes will be added to it. The new website is also easier to read. |
| 1:46.9 | Instead of having one really long post per episode, you'll have a short episode page so a short introduction and at the |
| 1:56.4 | bottom of that you may find one of several buttons one might read show notes |
| 2:01.8 | the other might read transcripts and photos, and the other one, guest notes. |
| 2:08.0 | So they won't appear on all the episodes yet, there's about 70 of them where I haven't done it yet, but I'm working on it. But breaking things up like that has made it so much easier to read and also to put the point of grass of what the episode is about. |
