Website of the Day: Live in Shanghai

shanghaitaxireceipt101706.jpgTipped by scRambler, we checked out Shanghai Daily's slick new Live in Shanghai website ... and we have to say we are impressed. Helpful and comprehensive, the site covers most of the basics any newcomer to the city would want to know. We wish a site like this existed, oh, four years and six weeks ago.

Live in Shanghai is split up into four major sections -- Fast Facts, Transport, Housing and, of course, Miscellaneous -- and also includes plenty of interactive features, like the "Dress up the Cabs" animation pictured above. The Shanghai Metro Map isn't too shabby, either.

Check out Live in Shanghai and let us know what you think. If nothing else, bloggers who get inundated with emails from people looking to move or travel to Shanghai can now simply respond: "Thanks for your email! I'm kind of busy at the moment, but you can probably find the information you are looking for at a cool new site called Live in Shanghai."
