There’s a few things we’d like to blog about at the moment but we’re having to contain ourselves - so we thought we’d remind people about the main website which we’re very proud of… and there’s more to come…

We thought it was about the right time to show how far the site has developed using the google maps api and to show the various sections, options and features you can view throughout the site. The website runs off of one google map of the island with all the "information" coming from a database and displayed depending on which section you "click" on without having to constantly open separate "pages".

We’ve now got a little ace up our …. sleeve… but thats to come…

Please do investigate the main website here: www.ibizaa-z.com or www.ibiza-now.com

As ever, click on the images for larger versions.

Use the navigation menu on the left for each section, relevant information appears underneath the map	You can now choose the new "Terrain" option

The menu above the map gives you numourous options to zoom in or out, to search the database or change the style of the map to normal, satellite, hyrid or the new terrain option. You can also show or hide the side bar which lists the markers on the map	The towns all have their own markers showing banks, phone boxes, etc and other local features . Clicking on a marker or its entry in the right hand side bar shows relevant information under the map

You can see exactly how the different municiplaties on the island are organised	Want to see exactly where organic shops and farms are and their descriptions?

For example, you can see an overview of where the libraries are on the island,	Or you can zoom in, change the map style and see exactly on a street map where your chosen library, shop, bank, or marker is

We have markers, photos & descriptions for all the beaches	Clicking on an image brings up a larger image overlayed on the page so you dont have to have popup windows or go to another page

We have an ever expanding photo and video gallery	Of course we also have a nightlife section, as well as activities, living, travel, art & culture, history, about ibiza etc

You can also book hotels and see exactly where they are	Want to take the coastline ferries and know when and how much ?

As this is a joint webste with Ibiza NOW magazine you can subscribe online for your own copy, delivered to your door	We are adding the front cover and contents pages for each months magazine as well as the monthly diary, classifieds ads. Articles from the magazine are added all the time - creating a vast archive.

Please do investigate the main website here:

www.ibizaa-z.com or www.ibiza-now.com
 

We’ve introduced a new feature today on the main website of www.ibizaa-z.com and www.ibiza-now.com.

Next to the title of each entry you’ll see: Printer Friendly Page

Clicking on this produces a new automated window with the original text and its own little google map and marker to make printing easier. We hope you find it useful.

We’ve now reached the landmark 100 beaches on the website now - something you won’t find anywhere else… It’s a hard life researching them all…www.ibizaa-z.com & www.ibiza-NOW.com.

We’re really looking forward to 2008 and expanding all the content so that you have a vast archive of material and new things to choose from…

We’ve been hard at work to create a single page with all the google maps we’ve done so far. Now you can pick and choose what to display on the same map. Petrol stations, phone boxes, bus stops, beaches, towns etc. When you click on a town name for example, it automatically zooms to show all the markers for that town. There’s still loads to be added… Click on the image or here for the new page.
