New British Mensa Community Website - Brief Review

Link to Mensa Website


This is the new Mensa website that I've mentioned before. Well it's been up a few weeks and I do like it. A nice clean modern look, and best of all it works with mensa.org.uk as well as www.mensa.org.uk. That's a minor techy thing but I do hate to see sites that only work on www.

It's still early days though with regards to contents. Like a village where everyone has moved in but theres no pub or church or social centre. The screen shot shows the members area- the navigation bar is in yellow while its almost white in the public area. There's more choices as well- theres news, events, community, shop and self development as well as sub menu options off these. I was impressed with being able to add money to my sigs account. British Mensa members get 2 sigs (Special Interest Groups) as part of their annual subs and you can buy extras. It took just 3 mins to add money. Some pats are user generated- you can add events for ad hoc meetings that didn't make the magazine or just announce them early. I'll look at some other features in the next part of this review. Don't expect me to give away any secrets though?
