We never expected the site to get popular when we launched it two summers back, and every day has been a lot of fun for us. Through the site (which has been without contact info) and through our MySpace and Flickr accounts, we've met so many cool people-- artists, writers, photographers, activists, athletes, printers, publishers, authors, and many more passionate individuals from every walk of life.

The best thing about doing the site is the community we've started to form, and we want to open that up to all our readers and anyone else who understands this here taco lifestyle and loves Los Angeles. We're open to anything anyone from the community wants to cover, but here are some specific things we'd like to get do right away to help broaden the daily offerings:

Fashion -- street fashion pictures and stories
Green -- everything from hikes to environmental awareness
Live Music -- do you go out to lots of good shows and take pix?
News -- cover what's happening in the city or on other sites etc.
Character Profiles/Interviews--who inspires, puzzles, or frustrates you in Los Angeles
