What Else Can You Do on the Braidwood Times Website?

Updated

Beyond reading local news, the Braidwood Times site bundles several practical tools: puzzles (Crossword, Sudoku, Ultimate Trivia), a jobs board called ViewJobs, interest-based newsletters and alerts, classifieds, a noticeboard, tributes and funerals, and sponsored content. Most of these are reachable from the site's navigation or its "Quick Links" and "Discover" sections. Note that the site also promotes digital subscriptions, so some content may sit behind a paywall rather than being fully open.

News, sport and weather

The homepage leads with local and regional reporting from Braidwood, NSW — the current front page carries stories on a fatal crash on the Kings Highway, a tractor fire that closed the same road, and a piece on a Nowra property, alongside national items. Sport, weather, entertainment and lifestyle are listed as standing sections in the site's own description, so you can go straight to those categories rather than scrolling the front page.

Puzzles

The site offers three puzzle types under its Discover section:

  • Crossword
  • Sudoku
  • Ultimate Trivia

These are presented as a standalone activity area rather than part of the news feed, so they're a reason to visit the site independent of the day's headlines.

ViewJobs

ViewJobs is the site's job board, described as bringing "the best job opportunities across Australia." It's a separate destination from the news sections — useful if you're job-hunting in the region or nationally rather than looking for a specific article.

Newsletters and alerts

You can sign up to newsletters "tailored to your interests," and the site also offers alerts. The sign-up entry point sits in the Newsletters & Alerts area of the page. This is the main way to get Braidwood Times content pushed to you instead of checking the site.

Classifieds, noticeboard, tributes and sponsored content

The navigation includes several community-oriented sections:

Section What it's for
Classifieds Traditional classified listings
Noticeboard Community notices
Tributes & Funerals Funeral and tribute notices
Sponsored Paid or sponsored content, distinct from editorial

Today's Paper and the subscription question

"Today's Paper" lets you read the latest edition online — the site describes it as the digital version of the print edition. The page states that a digital subscription "includes access to content from all our websites in your region" plus unlimited content and Today's Paper, with a "View Subscription Offers" link. Because the site signals subscription and premium content, don't assume everything above is free — check the offer page for current terms and pricing before relying on access.

Regional network

The same subscription covers a group of related mastheads listed on the page: The Canberra Times, Crookwell Gazette, Goulburn Post, The Queanbeyan Age and Yass Tribune. If your interest extends past Braidwood, that's the practical benefit of a single subscription.
