Iowa City Flood Sympathy

Our hearts go out to everyone who was affected by the disastrous flooding that occurred in Iowa over the past weeks. Many of you may not be able to get back to normal lives for a while, with weeks of cleanup, insurance paperwork, and more to go. Also thanks to the thousands of volunteers who turned out to help protect important buildings, people's homes, and more. Your hard work was immeasurably important.

Verizon EV-DO

After too long, we'll finally have access to Verizon's fastest wireless internet service, BroadbandAccess, here in Iowa City. We're used to being able to use the Broadband speed connection in our home city of Muscatine, which we've used for a long time to provide late-breaking stories on Muscazine. Now we can provide up to date local news for Iowa City because they are turning on BroadbandAccess in Iowa City. This means we can review restaurants, events, activities, and more on-the-spot, with our fast internet-anywhere connection.

Verizon's EV-DO (wifi data service) costs $59.99 per month for unlimited Megabytes on our laptop connection, providing the perfect service to keep us connected with our readers.

Iowa City Reviews - Coldstone Creamery, Sweets and Treats, and Pizza on Dubuque

So we've finished our first three food-place reviews. One pizza, one candy, one ice cream (can you see what I like to eat yet?). You can read about the high prices but friendly service found at ColdStone Creamery at the end of North Dubuque St. Or find out that the pizza and Mt. Dew are pretty good, and cheap, over at Pizza on Dubuque. You might also find that M&Ms fans will be happy seeing Sweets and Treats has quite the M&Ms selection. We hope to bring you a wide variety of reviews on all the restaurants in downtown Iowa City, on as limited of a budget as we have.
