Site News

You are currently browsing the archive for the Site News category.

When I first created this blog and sent the URL out on Twitter, I didn’t intend for many folks to see it. In fact, I didn’t anticipate more than a couple views on any given blog entry. The idea was to “soft launch” the blog; I would start creating some content so that when I launched the site “for real,” it would have more than one or two posts.

Well, the internet works in mysterious ways.

I’ve been getting more traffic than I anticipated, and it’s forcing me to move my schedule up. You’ll notice a new layout and header image. I think this one will stick around for a little bit.

Also, I’m looking for some help. The sad fact is, I can’t blog nearly enough to make this a useful internet destination. What I *can* do is provide the site, bandwith, and editing capabilities. I’m looking for a few folks who have the time to do the write-ups for a solid Thrashers blog and don’t mind having a filter (read: editor) on what they say. I’m not so concerned with what is said as much as how it is said. I notice that far too many blogs forget the basic rules of grammar, spelling, and civil discourse.

If you have any interest in blogging for me, you can reach me at tim@timmyf.com. If you have a sample of your writing, please send it to me. Let me know what sort of topics you’d be interested in writing about: game-day write-ups (previews or summaries), articles, data-driven posts (such as I’ve been writing so far), et cetera.

I’m interested both in folks who have not yet blogged about the Thrashers and current bloggers who may be interested in moving off of their current platform. The end-goal is for this blog to aggregate a variety of different content, hopefully condensing the rather disperse set of Thrashers blogs.

In the next few weeks, I hope to have some content on the draft.
