At the Tehachapi News, we strive to be a comprehensive newspaper, giving our readers a real sense of our community and its residents. Now, our Web site, www.tehachapinews.com, will be able to better serve as another portal into our community and bring residents and fellow Tehachapi lovers closer together.

Unlike our previous site, the new one offers more features. Now, all articles, events, letters, columns and photos can be found on the site. With our new flexibility, we’ll be able to post stories as they are completed, even before they publish in the paper. As readers, you will be able to post comments on all stories on the site, as well as e-mail them to friends.

We also offer discussion topics, inviting you to comment on specific issues
pertaining to our town.

Another feature is “Meet Your Neighbors.” When you submit articles, photos and events, you will be asked to register once, and have the opportunity to tell us all about your interests, include a photo, share favorite Web sites, and find other neighbors with like interests.

With the launch of the new site, we are also changing the way news, letters and photos are submitted to us. Instead of e-mailing the information, go to the Web site and click on the “Spread Your News” icon at the top of the page. If you haven’t registered, we’ll ask you to so we know how to contact you if we have any questions.

Then, choose what you’d like to contribute (an article, letter, photo or community event). Another page will pop up and all you have to do is fill in the blanks for the title, byline and information. You can even add photos or logos to your submission. When sending photos, be sure to use at least 200 dpi to ensure the best quality for our print edition. When you’re done, click on the “Submit” button.

A Tehachapi News editor will review your contribution and e-mail you when it has been published on tehachapinews.com. We include as many contributions as possible in our print edition.

So, go to tehachapinews.com and take a look around, register, and send us some news. We’d love to hear from you!
