Today we travel to Fresno and Milwaukee to feature StoryMaps on The Fresnan and Milwaukee Moments.
The Fresnan, a longtime GeoToolkit member whose stories are frequently featured at outside.in/fresno_ca, refers to itself as a “city-blog” and dutifully writes daily posts about events–mostly music and parties–in Fresno. It’s like a highly curated events calendar with commentary. If your taste matches The Fresnan’s (and if you’re in your 20s, it probably does), you’ll never lack for fun nights out in Fresno. And with their content so firmly rooted in place, their StoryMap is quite useful and pretty.
Milwaukee Moments is devoted to “Fish Fries, Fashion, & Family”–an eclectic but lively mix of events, observations, and opinions all focused on Milwaukee. Its author grew up in Milwaukee and then came back after 20 years. She’s so happy to be back, she decided to write about it. We’re glad she did. Milwaukee Moments has a devoted audience and we’re excited to help it grow.
