User Interface Improvements
Today we released our first major update to the site. You’ll notice that our homepage changed drastically.
Here’s the old version (click to enlarge)
And here’s the new version:
To really appreciate the difference, you’ll have to play around on the site a bit
We want to especially thank everyone who has taken the time to write us feedback in the past few weeks. These improvements are a direct result of what we heard from all of our users.
Have a great Holiday Weekend everyone!
Where are the Colleges?
One of the most frequent questions we’ve received in our first week is “where are the college teams?” It was the one comment we were almost certain we’d hear a lot…and with good reason. They type of serious sports fans who like LockerPulse almost always follow their favorite college teams just as closely as their favorite pro teams. Leaving colleges out was one of the unfortunate concessions we made to avoid delaying our launch. We wanted to get the site in the hands of users as soon as possible.
That said, the college news is coming soon. We’re in the process of researching which schools to support. I’ve received a ton of great feedback already with suggestions from alumni of schools such as Georgetown and Virginia Tech. If you are a college sports fan, please email us at
or leave a comment below letting us know your favorite teams and favorite blogs, newspapers, and sites you read to keep up with those teams. The more help we have from our community, the less time our staff needs to spend researching and the sooner we’ll be able to roll out an awesome college sports news experience to our users.
Twitter Posting Fixed
We ran into a few technical issues with Twitter today but as of now it looks like everything is up and running. Over the course of the next hour every team will have it’s news auto-posting to Twitter, and from here on out you should be able to keep up with the latest news for your team by following their LockerPulse Twitter account (see the pic below).
Thanks to everyone who checked out the site today. We got some great feedback for the first day. Looking forward to sharing it with some more people tomorrow!
We’re Live!
