We’re excited about some new features we’ve added to Portland Diner, the restaurant guide for Southern Maine. There are expanded listing pages and Google Map links to each restaurant in the system.
Even better, you can now create your own account and then rate restaurants and add your own mini-review.
More features coming soon. In the meantime - Bon Appetit!
I met Steve Briggs, a former resident of Portland, for lunch today. Steve is someone whom I’ve known of for some time but never met until now.
It’s pretty amazing how we came to meet up. Steve is not attending SXSW, but about a week ago I ended up on his Web site (He owns a Web design business called WowPages) after contacting him on behalf of a mutual Client. I happened to notice he listed an Austin office on his Web site.
Steve used to base WowPages out of Portland and still maintains a presence there, but in late 2005 he and his wife moved to the Lake Travis area just outside of town.
We met at the Driskill, a classy old hotel in the thick of things, for a drink, then walked down Congress Street (that’s right, Austin has a Congress Street just like Portland, and it is the main drag) to a great Mexican place called (La M???). You just can’t get Mexican food like this in Maine!
