July Website Update
After a short hiatus due to NBA Summer League, we're back with the second website update. This month is slightly lighter on new features, but that doesn't make the ones here any less meaningful in regards to the future of the site. Here is what you can look forward to sinking your teeth into this month...
We now have an official Youtube channel!!
Going forward, there will now be a video version of every podcast on Youtube. You can watch us interact as opposed to just listening beginning with episode 66 on the channel called AaronWashingtonBCB. We wanted to give you guys another way to consume our content just in case you are not the biggest fan of podcasts. Right now, they are scene for scene copies of the audio podcasts that you are streaming, but beginning in August, they will be edited to include graphics, music, and more to further differentiate them from the standard podcasts. There might even be a few extra snippets thrown in for your enjoyment. You'll just have to keep an eye out.
Additionally, there will be original videos produced for the channel that are completely independent of the weekly podcasts. The sole example that exists over there at this point is a recap of NBA Summer League 2019. Periodically however, you can expect more videos to appear on a variety of topics. If you have any particular requests for videos that you would like to see, feel free to drop a comment on the forum, or send an email. It will certainly be taken under consideration if the demand is high enough.
Check out our latest episode to get a glimpse of what is in store for you over on the channel!
Home Page Redesign
You have probably already noticed this, but after what seems like a lifetime, we have cleaned up the home page to simply things and cut down on the amount of time you will be spending scrolling up and down the page. Our resources section in particular has been strategically streamlined so that all of the relevant information is accessible with just a few scrolls of the mouse.
Patron Tab
Interested in supporting the BCB movement and securing some exclusive content in return? Then you might want to take a good look at a colorful addition to our website header. Patron is a service that allows content creators like BCB to offer additional services to those who would like to see even more of what we have to offer. For a small monthly investment, you can join an special club and help us provide even more high quality blogs, videos, projects, and more!
And that about does it this time around, save for back end support and a few new forum posts, Be sure to get plugged in over there, if you have not done so already. We'll be back in a couple weeks with even more exciting news. Keep it locked!
