The Web's First Theme Park News Aggregator is here:

Theme Park Syndicate
http://www.themeparksyndicate.com

It features the latest updates and headlines from top theme parks news
sites, blogs, podcasts, and videos. It's in Beta, but I'd like to know
what you guys think.

Any suggestions, feedback, etc....

Fine with me, another source of news in a slow moving coaster world.

Hey people, did you see this article?
http://www.themeparksyndicate.com/2009/10/does-subtraction-equal-addition-in-williamsburg/

I told you the Clydesdales would be leaving, I told you, and I was
right.

Same thing at SWF, remove the Clydesdales and there's enough room for
the worlds largest gift shop.

BGE could build something huge with those two pieces of land. They
could make a coaster that loads on the front section of land (Red
Circle), travels across the river to back section (blue circle), and
people wouldn't have to walk back there to ride it. I doubt they'd
have a coaster cross the river, but that is a far walk to get to the
back of the park.

I hack, as good as I give birth!

every once in a while even a drunk dog will get a bone....


it says they would no longer be housed in the park, not that they
would be removed completely. I've heard that they'll become an
occasional attraction at both busch parks, and will continue to
represent the Busch brands of beer. Seaworld will be de-usched
completely (which won't really take much effort)

I think it looks great! Good job! I like the one-stop-shopping aspect
of it. There are sites on there I never go to, so seeing a topic
listed there is a nice way to see something new.

Thanks for the feedback guys. And I'll sign up for Amusement Today's
digest, Dave. It looks pretty cool. We thought about doing something
similar.
