    The Extra site is a great idea, I’m not sure if it’s just my area or that this is a new site but mostly obits in my area, I live in a town that has quite a few older folks ;). But you can enter different zips so it’s a great way to see whats going on where your family is, my husband and I have moved quite a bit over the years. Once word gets out it could be a great place to stay up to date

    I think the web-site looks great so far! It’s clean and simple to navigate except I keep expecting to be asked to pay $$$ for a membership. I worry that it’s not a free service completely though it has been thus far. :D

    Neat idea.

    The xtraxtra website was very easy to navigate. What a great concept – a social media website specifically designed to track ‘life changing’ events! I’m hooked.

    I like the idea. It was easy to navigate, not much in my area though.

    It’s a fantastic site! I just called my dad, as he is always checking obituaries, and they have that function. It enables a user to enter any town/s they want. I am really impressed. It’s like a social directory for the internet.

    I checked the site out. Not a whole lot of content for my area, but and interesting idea. If lots of folks us it, it will be a good resource, but if not many people do it might not be worth it.
