News Page Updated

We have updated and streamlined our news page at uscity.net – click here to see it. Our updated online news page at http://news.uscity.net/ has prompted two of our employees to stop subscribing to their local newspapers.Our new page makes it easier than ever to get the news you want WHEN you want it. The bottom screen has different categories (like World News, Entertainment, Sports, Politics, Business and more) - you can scroll down the thumbnails on the right hand side for all the stories within that category.

Although one of my friends will continue reading her down-home community newspaper that comes out once a week, she discontinued her local/national newspaper. The other employee only gets his news online now and he gets it all here. I asked my friends why and here are some of the printable reasons they came up with.

Reasons given for using the online versus print news were: 1. Convenience – you can sit down at your computer, click on national news and listen while answering email or other computer tasks 2. Ease – it is so much easier to read the news online whenever I want to, no looking for the paper and no gathering it up from wherever my husband put it. 3. Current - Its way more up to date – the news is up to the minute, instead of up until deadline last night. 4. Less Advertising - My newspaper kept getting more advertising and less news – you literally had to look around all the ads to find the news. 5. Less Mess - no newspapers to recycle (although what are we going to wrap our fish scraps in and wash our windows with now?)

A New Look

Check out our new front page – it’s out of this world! Actually it is OF this world, with a view from OUT of this world. Our front page features a satellite photo featuring our part of the world – the good ole’ USA! And, when you scroll over the USA, you get a map that makes it easy to find the state you are searching for.


We are rolling out our front page for the second time since November. The front page has been updated, formatted, re-formatted and we have finally come up with a front page that works on all computers – if you loved our classic page, all you need to do is click on the classic look page on the left hand bottom of the page, and if you are using uscity.net on a widescreen, click on the widescreen page on the right hand bottom of the screen. We hope everyone enjoys the new look and the versatility of our front page.

Of course, we kept the easy to use yellow and white pages on the right and left that are easier to use than any telephone book ever!

And I also hope you will use our directory to find what you are looking for – our national web link directory has over 1.3 million business links. We have national links like, Amazon (one of my favorites) and Disney Shopping, along with tens of thousands of local links, like Massachusetts’s Yolanda's Pet Sitting and Errand Service, Florida’s Trompe L'Oeil Faux Finishing and California’s Sun Xtender® Solar Batteries.

We also feature informational sites – Texas’ Electricity Bid, useful sites like Background Checks.com and the Anger Coach website, for those who are in need of help and for businesses or groups who need anger management training, the AJ Novick Group. We list government agencies, schools and churches.

Anyone who qualifies can be listed in our directory – we are “G” rated and do not have links to any adult sites or sites promoting anything illegal, guns, violence, or sales of hard alcohol. For a full description of what we do and do not list in our directory, go to Our Guidelines page. Businesses that share our commitment to quality information and support for parents and children are always welcome. If you own a business you would like listed, please click here!

Our Lead Graphic Artist, Shea Crawford – who is constantly updating and upgrading our look, came up with this design to make our site more appealing. We hope you like it and thank you for using uscity.net.
