Planet Blacksburg General Interest Meeting

Welcome back, everyone!

We’ve got a bunch of great things planned this semester including more photos, video and other convergence content. We will continue to have comprehensive news, sports and entertainment coverage as well as a revamped opinions section. We’ll also participate in a number of service and social events over the course of the year.

Of course, in order to grow and evolve we need new members to fill the empty spots left over from last year. Come to the Shanks Hall Atrium for our first general interest meeting on Tuesday, August 28 at 6pm to see how you can contribute and gain valuable experience in the world of convergence media. Free snacks and drinks will be provided. Become a part of Planet Blacksburg and share our world with the whole world.

What: Planet Blacksburg General Interest Meeting
Where: Shanks Hall Atrium
When: 6pm Tuesday, Aug 28
Positions Needed: Reporters, Columnists, Photographers, Videographers, Public Relations/Advertising, Fundraising, Bloggers, Events Planners, etc…

If you cannot come to the meetings but still want to join, send me an email and we’ll find a way to keep you in the fold. Best of luck this semester!

Photostream

Planet Blacksburg just launched it’s newest feature today: the photostream. The inspiration for this idea came from us having some great photos of events around town, but no article to put them with. So the photostream is a place for us to put those photos and a way for you to see your news. The photostream will also be a place for us to post previews of photo albums or articles.

In collaboration with Flickr’s API, we have changed the way we manage photos. We plan to start posting a lot more photos this semester and we will be changing how they are integrated with the site.
