Beach Talk - How about a beach profile?
Not too long back I started a [b:17eb1g8j][url=http://groups.google.com/group/alt.california/browse_frm/thread/09cf039d84e059fd/7fb05e3221700348:17eb1g8j]thread[/url:17eb1g8j][/b:17eb1g8j] over on Google Groups (actually, the old Usenet groups) asking about beaches in California. The discussion that ended up happening had more to do with what should be listed for beaches than things specific to just California beaches. This leads me to think that it is time to build a way for people to create and update profiles for beaches.
Now, the big question is, what should be included in such a profile. Some good suggestions were offered, and I'd like to get any more that people have. Unfortunately, it will probably be some time before I can add this new interface, but any suggestions made now can be incorporated into the interface when it does come around.
Here is what I've heard people would like: [list:17eb1g8j] [:17eb1g8j]Water temperature by season or month[/:17eb1g8j] [:17eb1g8j]Restrooms Y/N[/:17eb1g8j] [:17eb1g8j]Outdoor showers Y/N[/:17eb1g8j] [:17eb1g8j]Drinking fountains Y/N[/:17eb1g8j] [:17eb1g8j]Concession stands Y/N[/:17eb1g8j] [:17eb1g8j]Beachfront restaurants Y/N[/:17eb1g8j] [:17eb1g8j]Free parking Y/N[/:17eb1g8j] [:17eb1g8j]Paid parking Y/N [list:17eb1g8j][:17eb1g8j]Parking cost by season and/or day of the week[/:17eb1g8j][/list:u:17eb1g8j][/:17eb1g8j] [:17eb1g8j]Public transportation Y/N [/:17eb1g8j] [:17eb1g8j]Playgrounds for children Y/N[/:17eb1g8j] [:17eb1g8j]Dogs allowed[/:17eb1g8j] [:17eb1g8j]Clothing optional Y/N (note, I already track this, but currently don't have an interface to let others say if it is or is not)[/:17eb1g8j] [/list:u:17eb1g8j]
I'll update this list as more suggestions come in.
Thank you for the suggestions!
