New Web Site

Has anyone seen this new website http://www.motoringfile.com/newsroom? I stumbled across this site earlier and noticed that it just about copies GoMotoring.com that Mark has done. I know Mark's site has been around for a while.

I think it's great that they have this new site, but why copy another site? I'm confused! If I'm wrong about this, please correct me.

Michelle

Motoring File has been around for quite some time as well and they aren't trying to copy someone else.


The Newsroom is explained on the main page at http://www.motoringfile.com

Read up on it, great feature.

Motoringfile was created in 2002, they're not trying to copy eachother, just keeping us MINI owners up-to-date and happy

The technology being used there is not owned by Gabe or Mark. If you read the news post on the front page of MotoringFile, Gabe explains it, and then further in the comments section when Mark asks him about it. This page had been in the works for quite some time now.

It's important to remember that things like this are not a competition; we, MINI enthusiasts, are lucky that we have such dedicated people to get the latest MINI news, updates and gossip to us in such a timely manner.

Thanks to both Gabe and Mark, in addition to the rest of the crew at the other MINI websites!

It's awesome that we have more than one source to go to!

It's great that people want to do these sites to keep us all posted!
