New Editors Will Take Over Cleveland Heights Patch

My last day as editor of Cleveland Heights Patch is today, Nov. 30.

I wanted to let everyone know that after today, Nov. 30, I will no longer be the local editor of Cleveland Heights Patch. Nikki Ferrell, who has been the editor of Beachwood Patch for the past two years, and Brandon Baker, who has contributed articles to many Northeast Ohio Patch sites, including Cleveland Heights, will take over. My new position is with GIE Media. The offices are in Cleveland, so I’m happy to say I will be able to continue to live in Cleveland Heights. I have had the pleasure of learning about this community and meeting hundreds of interesting, intelligent and engaged residents. I understand now why people told me Cleveland Heights was so special. The city boasts walkable neighborhoods, a rich history, theaters, a concert…

What Do You Think of the New Patch?

A completely new design is being tested on five East Coast Patch sites.

Last weekend, Patch launched a redesigned platform on five of its sites on New York’s Long Island. The sites — Bellmore, Garden City, Levittown, Long Beach and Merrick — give Patch users a look at a test design that should go nationwide early next year. The biggest change is the addition of "groups" — topic-specific news feeds that let Patch users choose the updates they receive on the customizable homepage. Groups now organize all news, content and information on the new site. By following or unfollowing different groups, users can make the daily experience of taking in the news more relevant to their everyday lives. The major groups, like Breaking News, Schools, etc.—will be run by Patch editors — but users will also be encouraged to …
