The calendar app is perfect for looking for things to do on-the-go, and has come in handy when finding something to do when friends are in town. They are easy to find: pick up at so many cafes, restaurants and stores in town, and they even now deliver USPS. Worst case scenario, you can get it online at modestoview.com. Every issue is packed with fun stuff to do, new food and drinks to try, interviews with cool people, and contests too. A great, fun magazine.

My Auntie was looking for a magazine in San Jose to place an ad for her new business & after…read morecalling a few places she found El Aguila. The lady over the phone seemed very patient & nice, at first I was like of course they want us to place an ad but once we visited the office I realized I was wrong. They went through the prices & different options with us, very sincere and got to the point. I like that they are not rude or pushy like other magazines. Even the owners seemed very humble & nice, that's a first since a lot of business owners especially from a popular magazine are not really that laid back. I felt comfortable & confident that my Auntie was going to place her ad in the magazine. After getting the magazine her ad looked great! Definitely doing business with them again.

It is a beautiful glossy thick pages coffee table magazine and gives you a good glimpse of how "they" live and what they do. It has beautiful covers of mostly celebrities and articles about philanthropy, people doing good things, artists, architects, chefs, car collectors, fashion designers, fashion, events, food etc. It's rather like the magazines out of the New York Times. My friends ask me to bring them back for them. It looks like it costs a pretty penny to publish it quarterly. That's the first thing I do when I cruise through Carmel....do my magazine run.

One quirky but nifty aspect of a local newspaper in a town with a huge physics lab is that there are always interesting articles about the latest LNLL or Sandia news, with a pretty good description of the science behind it. The Independent magazine which is monthly I think is also very informative about local activities. And it's always cool to see your kid's name in print with the complete little league coverage!

The Independent is a good local paper that posts honest reviews, and openly allows debate from all sides of issues. I do not always agree with the editor, but when she states her opinion, she states it AS HER OPINION. So editorial honesty is present. When our City Council sold out to a developer to pack the downtown and ruin its parking and atmosphere, she stated so. And she also printed opposition to her opinion. That is fair journalism. The Independent and Carmel's PineCone are two papers everybody should read. You get a small town approach from people who care. We may have lost control of the two local papers we had, as they are now controlled by outsiders, but we have the Independent. Take a free subscription, you won't regret it.

The "Tri City Voice" is a free community newspaper that covers the South Eastbay. It's available at…read morevarious locations, but I usually grab a copy or read it at Peking Garden in San Lorenzo. With offices in Fremont, it has a huge coverage area from San Leandro to Milpitas. It seems to lack frontpage news stories, but has everything else. Content such as city events, obits, police and fire reports, horoscope, school sports, and classified ads. The paper seems to fit the gaps that those other "cookie cutter" newspapers don't cover. The Tri City Voice gets residents interested in their community, and generates involvement. A valuable asset to the Eastbay.
