Tech Update & Apology

First of all,

Apology for those repetitive posts

I'd like to apologize for filling your RSS Readers with those "Quick  Notes".   My intent was to use LoudTwitter to share the CheapEats Toronto twitter updates with you.

But what was initially a quick and easy way to share short notes turned into an RSS-clogging annoyance.  

So I've turned it off, and hopefully that's the last you'll be seeing of that.

Tech Update - @CETO on twitter

However, we are doing occasional twitter updates which might be of interest to you.  If you are on twitter, you can follow @CETO, send comments to @CETO, or even tag your CheapEats tweets with #CETO.

If you aren't on twitter or if you want to track the whole CheapEats Toronto experience on twitter, check out http://twitter.zappos.com/ceot. The guys at Zappos.com/Zappos.ca set this up for us and it's great! (Thanks Zappos!)

Tech Update - New Plethora Press Store for CheapEats

On a less frustrating note, we've successfully launched our new sales site for CheapEats - the Plethora Press Bookstore (Plethora Press is our publisher, who is also us.)

Thanks to everyone who helped get test it out.  Your books are in the mail.

Did you miss out?  Sale extended to May 19th!

If you missed out on the sale, the discount checkout code cheapeater has been extended until Monday May 19th and works for CheapEats Toronto and the just-published CheapEats Ottawa.

Thanks for your patience!

Shout out from BlogTO

The CETO Facebook Group just got a shout out from BlogTO in their 50 Essential Toronto Facebook Groups.  

Cheap Eats Toronto - The Facebook Group companion to the Cheap Eats Toronto restaurant guide. Administrator Alexa Clark keeps members up to date with links to Toronto food news and events.

Tim has done a great round up and the count increases as people are adding their own essentials in the comments.

As shameless aside, did you know you can also find Cheap Eats Toronto on Flickr?  CheapEaters are sharing photos of their CheapEats meals and fun from all around town.  We've also set up facebook and flickr groups for Cheap Eats Ottawa.  You know, just in case you are on the road and need a nosh in the capital.

Hey, did you know we have a CheapEats Toronto Flickr group?

I'm loving the photos people are submitting to the flickr group. You can actually see what you are in for when trying a new dish, or a new restaurant.  And some are just stunning photos, like Tanja's to the right.

Some people want to talk about food and restaurants, some people want to shoot them. (I mean the food and restaurants, not the talkers.  Though I'm sure some of my friends have wanted to shoot me when I get onto one of my many food rants.  And then there's Anthony Bourdain's comment on bloggers shooting their food... but I digress)

I hope you'll drop by and check out some of the wonderful photos people are taking, and consider joining yourself.  We'd love to see what you are eating too.

Note:  by submitting photos to the CheapEats Toronto Flickr group gives us permission to use the photos here and on CheapEatsToronto.com.  But if your photos are used, you will get a byline, as Tanja did in the Mars Diner shot above.
