How to easily find out about what's going on in The City?

San Francisco offers its visitors and residents tons of events to attend, places to visit, festivals to go to, restaurants to indulge awesome food, bars to go dancing and so much more!

With a city that has so much to offer, have you ever wondered... 
  • How to easily find out about what's going on in The City?
  • How to find the best deals?
  • How to make sure a place is popular and appreciated?
  • Where's the latest and trendiest place in town?
I asked myself these questions so many times... and that I thought I could share with you all the great and useful "web tools" I found over the time! 

So please, have a look at these sources of information, pick your favorite ones, add them to your bookmarks or even better : follow them on Facebook or Twitter to be informed everyday about what's going on, the latest deals, the new places and much more!


Be aware though: you might find yourself being stressed out thinking you don't have enough time to experience and enjoy everything San Francisco has to offer!! But don't worry too much: this City is the number 1 destionation among all cities in the United States, so anytime you feel like coming back to enjoy more, I can ensure you that most of all these great places will still be there... and more will have been added by the time! ;-)
