|  | | | The website http://www.notfortourists.com is a website with this mission statement: Not For Tourists is a growing series of guides to major cities. Our philosophy is simple: people need to use the cities they live in, commute into, or travel to effectively. They need to use their city’s transportation systems; its governmental infrastructure; its shops, restaurants, and nightspots—and they need all of this information while they’re on the move in a format that’s more accessible than the Yellow Pages, more informative than Zagat’s, and more useful than any tourist’s guide.
Consequently, we created a guide that has highly graphical maps, tons of listings, commentary on neighborhoods, stores, restaurants, airports, sports stadiums, etc.—all in a portable, attractive format designed to be an essential tool for residents, commuters, and visitors alike. And since we lived in New York and were in desperate need of just such an as-yet-unmade guide, we made it ourselves!
Thier guides include: Chicago; Boston; Washington,.D.C.; New York City; Brooklyn; Manhattan; San Francisco; and Los Angeles and range in price from 10 to 20 dollars. Some of the info is useless form the UE aspect, but they could prove useful
Confucius say: "Empty is the mind where the mouth runs free, and yours is like a river"
