USC Ice Hockey Blog: Social Media run amok!

If you can believe it, this blog entry serves a couple of different purposes:

- To test out blogger... I've never used it before;

- To fill out content... hopefully this will be a regular contribution!

- To take a break... I'm on social media overload, and this is my break!

As AGM, I run the various social media outlets for the team. It all started off as such as simple idea back in my dorm room years ago. I actually was the first webmaster for the team, and (for some odd reason) my original webpage design continued to be used well after I graduated. In fact, until the webpage revamping I did earlier this year, you were looking at the page I originally designed! Flattered as I am, the page definitely needed updating.

Gone are the times when I only had to deal with a website that was just a subdirectory of the student server (gotta love the ~icehocky folder!), and email once in a while (remember icehocky@usc.edu?)

Now we're all grown up... our own domain, our own email servers, Facebook pages, Twitter accounts, blogs, etc. Double that up with the same outlets for our Ice Girls, and then add a couple more for The Rig, and I'm up to my ears in updating/tweeting/blogging.

And this doesn't include my personal accounts.

But in any case, what we have now is multiple ways to follow the team. We've always focused on how our fans, both locally and non-locally, can feel close stay connected. We've had a few hiccups this season on the game broadcasting side of things.... we hope to resolve that soon.

Until then, make sure you check out all the ways you can connect with us!
