Buzzerblog Is Back
« on: May 24, 2014, 05:02:39 PM »
And under new management. Read this:

http://www.buzzerblog.com/2014/05/24/buzzerblog-is-back/

TL;DR I'm in charge of the news these days. Bob Hagh is our editor-in-chief. Cory Anotado, the original founder of Buzzerblog, is our technical guru/director of operations. Alex Davis is with us as our senior writer. Same address as always, but now with a fresh new look.

It's going to be fun, guys. I'm excited for our team to bring you game show news, opinions, reviews, and trivia the way Mom used to make.

I must say, in the FB comments, there's a prime example of "ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer" that I enjoyed.

Explain the difference in roles here? Genuinely curious.

Essentially, I write most of the news. Alex writes here and there, but his main role right now is maintaining our social media presence and editing content where he sees fit. Having been at the helm for more than a minute, Alex also offers us a bit of guidance in terms of direction for the new site.

Also, I misspoke: senior WRITER, not editor. Senior editor doesn't make sense. I think I see where this confusion came from. Original post modified.

Checked the new site (awesome to see it back, by the way), the Facebook page, and the Twitter page, and didn't see anything about this: what happened to the years and years of old posts?

We wanted to start everything fresh. We're not planning on moving any of the posts over to the new site as of now.

Fair enough. Still, based on your wording, they at least exist in some form.

Thanks, Cory. :)

(EDIT: Okay, turns out the old site still exists, completely intact. The new site just uses a shortened URL.)
