Nice Magazine has been under reconstruction for the past several weeks. We now have our own domain name (www.nicemagazine.org) and many more features than our original one trick pony site. We'll be doing an official launch in a week or so.

We truly hope that you enjoy it and will find it a shed of light on what otherwise could be a pretty ordinary day.

If this site is going to make it it'll be due to the support of our community. So contribute stories, give us your feedback and tell others to come on over and visit. We are going to work tirelessly to make sure you have timely, interesting, kinda cool information about nice people, places and things.

We're looking forward to the future. Until then...
