All Mapping Specialists products are available for purchase online. The one limitation currently is that tiled topo quads cannot be ordered online, yet, but we're working on that. We will be expanding the store in the coming months to include other products that we sell, such as the DeLorme state atlases, and other products that we are licensed to sell. New MSL Web Site /article.php?story=20060603143922469 /article.php?story=20060603143922469 Sat, 03 Jun 2006 14:39:22 -0500 General News Welcome the the new Mapping Specialists web site! New look, but still familiar. We changed from custom, mostly static pages to a weblog-based system. This makes it easier to update the site and post news items, like this one. The site is completely searchable also - find those old Newsletter articles easily. (Currently the content search and lakemap search are separate.) The news items are also available by RSS newsfeed. Most browsers will show an RSS icon that a site has a newsfeed available - check it out and bookmark it. Currently new/updated lakemaps don't show up in the newsfeed (unless a news item is added), but I'm working on that. There may still be a glitch here or there. Let us know if you find any problems.
