Excellant resource chexfan!
It looks like you forgot West Seattle in Neighborhoods section. The WS Junction web site is useful as well.
A walk along the beach at Alki and Fish & Chips at Spud's is always on our list when we visit Seattle. We also enjoy a stroll through Lincoln park with its views and beach, and often take in Ferry ride from Fauntleroy to Vashon or Southworth (seeing as the Fauntleroy terminal is directly next to the park).
One of the things I get asked about all the time (living in Victoria) is how easy it is to visit between Vancouver, Victoria and Seattle. I find lots of folks would like to combine some of these (and also Whistler).
Don't know if you want links for this to add to your Beyond Seattle category or not, but here are a couple I am aware of:
A FOAF might have to live in Seattle for a while, could you please add a section on what neighborhoods are (or are not) desirable to live in? What routes are (or are not) desirable for commuting?

Great effort Chexfan. As a Seattle escapee (me) to Bellingham, you have covered just about everything I know about the Emerald City. With the Olympics coming, you might include a little about little ole Bellingham as it is certainly growing, is the last stop before Canada and has some pretty cool things to see and do. If interested PM me and I will be glad to give you some info. I also did a long message on a thread with hints about crossing the border into BC which I can send you also.

Chexfan, I really appreciate your Visitor's Guide. I moved away from the Seattle area 2 years ago after living there for half of my life. Viewing your guide left me feeling very homesick. What I miss most about Seattle is the nature around the city. What do you think about adding a section of nearby parks? Let me know if you want help. A

Well, I have about 4 years to get that part setup, right?
Great suggestion!

Well, I have a link to Seattle Parks & Rec, but I realize that is a bit limiting. I think it's a great idea to note the "major" parks and to add them to the different neigborhood sections. Thanks.
Holy Moley! Haven't you been a busy beaver! Congrats on the great visitor's guide. I <3 Northlake Pizza. Let's add some "unique" eating areas in each of the neighborhoods. I can help if you want.
