I’ll be launching a new feature here tomorrow evening.\u00c2\u00a0 It’s not getting a particularly big launch because a) I’ve only just decided that I’ve got the time to do it, and b) I’m not sure quite how it’s going to work, so starting slowly might be for the best.<\/p>\n
I’m really pleased at how BaseballGB has moved from being an occasionally updated blog back in 2006 to being a website built around a group of regular features and columns.\u00c2\u00a0 However, one thing that we don’t do quite as much as I think we could is commenting on things as they happen.\u00c2\u00a0 I do this on Twitter, but that’s not quite the same.\u00c2\u00a0 So, I thought it would be a good idea to introduce a ‘live blog’ element to the site.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n
The one live blog I’ve written in the past came in June 2008 when I kept track of the first round of that year’s amateur player draft (all 3 hours of it!).\u00c2\u00a0 It was a lot of fun to do, but it was a bit fiddly in terms of constantly going in and editing the post, while asking readers to refresh the page every 5 minutes or so.\u00c2\u00a0 Despite enjoying the experience, the ‘logistics’ of it made me put the idea on the back-burner.<\/p>\n
