Starting Monday, we will launch a 3 day series called “New Media and Hockey.” We’ll get into how the NHL and the rest of the hockey world is interacting and being effected by different types of media. We’ll look at how fans can interact through Twitter and Facebook; how fans can experience the games with YouTube and Podcasts; and how blogs have given fans an explosion of information. Here’s the schedule:
Monday (August 17): New Media and Hockey Day 1: Twitter and Facebook
Tuesday (August 18): New Media and Hockey Day 2: YouTube and Podcasts
Wednesday (August 19): New Media and Hockey Day 3: Hockey Blogs
Do whatever you do to keep track of our website, whether it’s RSS feeds, bookmarking or via e-mail updates. I’m curious for any feedback to hear what everyone thinks about hockey and its relationship with the new media outlets. We’ll see you on Monday…
Matt Reitz is the Editor-In-Chief here at ViewFromMySeats.com and former NHL Writer for ProHockeyTalk on NBCSports. When he’s not shoving a mic in the face of NHLers or explaining why home teams should wear white, he’s usually trying to figure out what song to play next on his iPod. It’s a never-ending job.
