Published 9:32 pm Saturday, July 12, 2008

The Clanton Advertiser’s Web site has a new look today.

The new https://www.clantonadvertiser.com/ site was launched this morning with numerous new features available to our online readers.

In addition to keeping up with the latest news across Chilton County, readers will be able to comment on stories posted to the site. All anyone has to do is to become a registered user at www.clantonadvertiser.com. There is no fee to signup, and it will also allow you to share your thoughts on any story, photo, poll, column, etc.

By becoming a user, you will also be able to share memories of people who are listed in our obituaries section. Here, you will be able to share with the world how that person impacted your life.

As a user, you will also be automatically be registered for our companion photo site Spotted, which is available at spotted.clantonadvertiser.com. Here you will be able to share photos with other readers around the world. The Clanton Advertiser will also be posting photos from any event we cover during the year.

From the Peach Festival to high school sports, photo galleries will be available of the photos we take during the course of covering an event. This will include the photos the Advertiser staff puts in the paper plus additional photos that will not fit in our regular edition.

Like our main site, you will also be able to post comments to photos, and you will be able to network with other users.

“I think all our readers will enjoy our new Web site,” said Stephen Dawkins, sports editor and web editor for The Clanton Advertiser. “The sites will allow us to keep them informed in a way we never have before.”
