Welcome to the new REACH website!
We've listened to your feedback and packed our revamped REACH website with a slew of new features to enhance its usability for you, our valued contributors. Besides enhanced visuals and more prominent feedback channels, we have improved familiar favourites to better facilitate citizen-to-citizen and government-to-citizen engagement, such as
For the above favourites, you can now click on a "Like" button on the posting or any contributors' comments that you feel to be relevant and well thought out. Postings that attract the highest number of "Like" votes will be placed prominently on top of all comments so you, the contributors, can now have the say on who occupies the "prime" space on each article, thread or discussion.
"Your Discussion Corner" and "REACH's Discussion Corner" have been combined into a single "Discussion Forum" so you can initiate new threads, post comments and engage one another on this new discussion forum. For better readability, replies to comments in the discussion threads will be presented in an indented format.
With the growing popularity of our new media channels, you can now access our
Facebook,
Twitter,
Flickr and
Youtube accounts at all pages.
Come and join us for real-time webchats during major feedback exercises, using our improved webchat interface.
We're excited by all these changes and hope you like them as much as we do. We look forward to more lively, thoughtful and engaging discussions. Do stay tuned as we progressively unveil more groundbreaking changes in this new website in the months ahead!
*Latest Update (Jan 2011)
In our Discussion Forum, you may now sort discussion threads according to your preference, displaying them chronologically or based on other available options such as the number of postings, number of views, and number of "likes". Image appended is for your reference, please.
In addition, we have introduced Facebook Connect
to facilitate easy login using your Facebook account. When you use your Facebook ID to log into the REACH website, you may now recommend your favourite discussion threads to your Facebook friends and network, just by clicking on the new "Recommend" button!
