Need some help?

With so much ‘data’ or pages HispanicTips can be a bit overwhelming, so I have made it a little easier to drill down to find the info you are looking for. What am I talking about? For example you can see all of the immigration stories I have posted from any state, say Colorado. In case you don’t remember, I have been working on making the state, metro and subject pages more useful by adding content such as maps and news automatically pulled from various sources. (Most of these pages have a Google PageRank of 5 or 6) For example Colorado or Los Angeles now have local interactive Google maps and ‘Hispanic’ news from local papers and other web sources. Some state pages also have links to subject posts found in that state like California Latinas news or Colorado Hispanic Media news. Subject pages like Business or Politics have all of this except for the interactive maps. Instead they have a map of the US so you can click on any state and see all the Business news for that state like Florida for example. I am still in the process of rolling this out so you won’t see it on every page yet but I had to share it with you because at least to me it just seems cool. Oh before I forget again, I wanted to thank all of you, my regular readers, for spending some small part of your day with HispanicTips. - Gracias, Tomás
