Spurred on by the Mets’ decision to cut ties with Dave Hudgens and Jose Valverde, we’ve decided to shake things up at Mets360, too. Undoubtedly, you’ve noticed our new theme. Those that view the site on their laptop or desktop won’t notice too much difference but those who view on mobile devices or tablets should find the site much easier to read.
We are beefing up our social media presence and hope that you’ll join us on Facebook and Twitter. Our Facebook page is already in place. If you haven’t done so already, please like our page and check there for updates. Previously it was just a link dump but from now on writers will be sharing their opinions there and we hope you will, too.
Our ongoing request to reclaim our Twitter feed is still moving along at a glacial pace. So, we have a new page up where we will be more active. Please come follow us and make it a great place to talk about the Mets.
If there’s anything you’d like to see us do different, please feel free to comment below. Thanks for reading and commenting on our stories!
I’d like to see more authors critique one another. The Jose Reyes blog was an embarrassment and the author never defended or responded to any remarks. We are asked to answer in civil terms when we disagree but how is that when someone writes such an inane article it devalues your reputation. There have been several blogs where the writer needs to give credit and not take someones idea as their own. If watching a game and one hears something he likes, he should clarify in his blog by saying.”During last night’s broadcast, so and so stated…”instead of using that information as his own. Finally can you explain who is Other? Is his identity such a mystery that the person cannot attach his name when he blogs an opinion? Thanks for letting me air my opinions even though sometimes they’re not very astute.
Other can be anyone on the site – his identity is just not important. Usually it’s for the Game Chatters and it doesn’t make any difference who posts that. If I post 10 Game Chatters, I don’t want them showing up in my author archive.
I totally understand about game chatter. But I am beginning to see articles with Other as the author. And I’m just wondering why would someone be allowed to post a blog without using their name?
Since the beginning of the year there have been 50 articles published with the byline Other. Of those, 48 were Game Chatters. The other two was a video that was done by someone other than one of the writers on the staff and a prediction contest to see which pitcher would get the first hit.
I used to read Matt Cerrone’s posts while I was waiting for your pages to load.
Good job.
Funny one, I guess I wasn’t alone….but that changed for me after his posts have largely become reprocessed Alderson bilge water.
Long live Mets360!
My main question Brian, is whether this represents a change in hitting philosophy, or just window dressing to placate a disgruntled, booing fan base?
😉
Thank you
Looks great on the iPhone!
I like the new look,looks great on my tablet.
Looks great! Is it just me or does the site banner “pop” more now? I like it.
The previous theme had a dark blue background image. This one is white all the way around, so the colors from the banner do stand out more.
What’s the new Twitter handle??
