Getting Started

To get started at Talk of the Sound all you need is a User ID and Password. However, if you have not done so already you might want to read the About page which will explain what the site is all about. The most important thing to know about this site is that it is not a "news" site but rather a "community" site or "hyper-local blog" that relies on YOU to produce and publish the content. If you are a New Rochellian by birth, residence, schooling, business or just a visitor and have an opinion about New Rochelle you would like to express, or a story to tell, or a press release to distribute - or any other sort of news and information of relevance to New Rochelle - there is no need to ask permission or submit for review- just register and publish to your blog. Your post will then appear on the home page.

The registration link below will open a new window. Select a User Name and Password. Your user name can be your own name, the name of your organization or a pseudonym or "handle". Whichever User Name you select that will be the name that appears when you comment and will be the name of your blog. You can edit your User Name at any time.
