Forum rules
We hope that the Living in Taiwan forum will be of value to you and others. To ensure this, please note:
It is best to capitalize topics and to avoid vague titles. “Hi, I’m new” and “Help please” are examples of bad titles.
Before posting, please check the FAQ thread, and – more importantly – use the search function to ensure that your topic has not been discussed before and that there is not an existing thread you could update with your contribution.
While Living in Taiwan is a busy, wide-ranging forum, there are other specific forums for relationships, teaching, business, legal issues, animals, food, events, travel, restaurants, and so on. Check the Forumosa menu to find the most appropriate place for your post.
While it is preferable to post questions dealing with dissimilar topics in separate threads (“How Much for an Apartment in Tianmu?”, “Are There Many Foreigners in Tianmu?”), if you are a new arrival, it is possible to present numerous questions in one post, but realize that your thread will then, after two weeks, be merged into the New to Taiwan: Some Questions thread.

How useable do you find the web site?
I found it difficult to choose a landmark that it recognised.
I'm doing a research report on the English living environment in Taiwan so I would be interested in any feedback on this subject.

This PDF is a good map from the site, it's 16 megs so it might take a little while to download:

mmmmmmmm. sorry. Take a look. These links are not working anymore. I am considering a site where I can print and laminate various useful bus lines to an A4 page for my planner and use as I need. Somebody want to make some money? Laminate bus routes and the Taipei Metro info from the freeby map at the MRT into a series of pages and market them. You might want to consider an island wide hiway map also. Include pub information from FORUMOSA and other "useful" information and make some bucks. Count me in. I'll be the first to buy at about 500 NT laminated.

Which freebie map? An Engilish one I assume. Wouldn't selling them be a breach of copyright or something?
