Welcome to your new look Croydon Guardian website.

As part of its makeover, the website can now bring you a richer and more varied mix of news, sport, pictures and video.

The navigation has moved to the top of the page to make it easier for you to find the sections that you want.

You will find live traffic and travel updates, the latest house prices, crime figures for your road and school league tables in our improved local information section.

Tell us your views on our stories and issues affecting you in our forum, which has now moved into a section called Your Say.

You may find that some sections have moved, but we hope you agree that the new site is a great improvement.

Tell us what you think of the new site – what you like, or what you would like to see changed – using the comment feature below.

The wonderful thing is - we all have to log in with user name and password. That'll get rid of the impersonators. Hope the CA follows suit.

Hello Anne,

What's this about impersonators and where's the kiss you promised me?

Love Bob x

Sorry, Bob. Here you are:xxxxxxxxxxxx
I had someone impersonating me, saying things I would never say. Also - on the CA, someone impersonated a fellow blogger who was sending me messages and arranged to meet me in Croydon in order to get me over there. Fortunately, I stood on the other side of the road - so was safe. Someone was also impersonating me, pretending I was racist and anti-police as well, but most of them have been banned now.

"...we hope you agree that the new site is a great improvement."
No, Mr.Menhinnitt, I don't, at least from the point of view of the letters format. As I've already said elsewhere, anything quoted in a post is presented on the page in such a way as to sometimes be nonsensical in relating it to the body of the letter. In this respect please look at some of the posts on:
http://www.croydongu
ardian.co.uk/news/lo
calnews/display.var.
2403554.0.police_say
_croydon_getting_saf
er_despite_litter_at
tack.php
to see what I mean.

Needless to say, in the case of multiple quotes, it fails completely.
See a post by "Kes" on:

Please tell us, did anyone actually check this aspect first?

The RSS feeds don't seem to be working. Have also sent a separate e-mail in this regard.
