Site News

I know a lot of you have a link straight to this forum. I am working to add content to the main site as often as possible. www.ballofspray.com

I added something today that I think is pretty cool.

Other news from the main page:

There are some new items in the classifieds. (Some jump skis, a 66” A1 and some other stuff) http://www.ballofspray.com/joomla/index.php?option=com_adsmanager&Itemid=83

Twitter reporters for the BigDawg events and for Moomba have been set up. You will be able to get updates as they happen from the Twitter bar on the front page or you can subscribe to the feeds yourself.

Are going to any major tournament and would like to report news to BallOfSpray? If you can send a text message from your cell phone you can send Twitter messages and I can route them to the font page.

Blogs? There are a million web tools out there. Personally I hope Twitter is going to make an impact on skiing this year. I see it as away to get news out and not so much as a blog tool.

If anyone in skiing wants thier own blog, I would be happy to host it here at BallOfSpray. As long as the content is roughly water skiing and is not offensive I am happy to have it here. At this point I am just looking to see if anyone is interested. I would handle all the tech stuff so all you have to do it type your skiing thoughts. We can work it out so if you want photos and videos that is pretty easy also.
