I'm no longer a CAMRA member so can't see the new version of the site.
Does it differ much from the old version which can still be seen here under a new name http://www.camrahops.com/?

I wouldn't worry Dave, it's a pile of poo at the moment.
They told the local branch meeting at The Baum on Tuesday that they'd launched this "amazing new pub site".
After the meeting I told several of the attendees not to bother with it if they want to actually FIND a pub and gave out all the PuG cards I had.
A pub is for life not just for Christmas
If other CAMRA groups around the country are like our local group it will be useless , they refuse to accept the existance of any pub , other than their favorites

camrahops is one of three, yes three, pub review sites that should automatically feed the main WhatPubs site, it should be automatic but it's not. You can't add photos very easily either, so looks like CAMRA has missed the bus on this one. So the short answer is no, the WhatPub site is much clunkier than the Hops site you can see.
My local branch (Vale of Clwyd) has yet to subscribe so I am in a "publess" area.
Elsewhere the map points are well out. To alter them you have to get the pubs coordinates and send them to the local branch!! I doubt if I will manage more than 2, rather than 2,000!!
