If you like sports, fashion or food, then this post is for you! This post is a little bit different than my previous ones, and also my first time doing something like this. But, you will get to meet some of my friends (Carly and Lindsey) in my very first podcast!
Carly writes a fashion blog called Fashionably Later and Lindsey writes a food blog called Live From The Kitchen. If either of these interest you, you should definitely check them out!
Myself, Lindsey and Carly in Philadelphia for PRSSA National Conference.
Fans of the Pittsburgh Penguins seem to be the loudest of the 16 teams in the NHL Playoffs on Twitter. Thanks to Twitter's blog for this awesome information!
April 16 starts the 2014 NHL Playoffs. And this year the NHL wants you to share your playoff experience no matter where you are. Are you at home? At the bar? In the building watching the game? No matter where you experience the NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs, the NHL wants to see it with #MyPlayoffsStory. Go ahead and share if you're watching!
Unfortunately for me, the 2014 NHL Playoffs mark the fifth year in a row that the Carolina Hurricanes have missed the after show. I have no dog in the hunt, so I just get to sit back and relax during games even though I would prefer spending my afternoons stressing about the Staal brothers and our starting goaltender. Hopefully next season will be our year (one can only hope).
Meet Brazuca: An Adidas soccer ball with six cameras that is starting it's journey in Brazil and traveling the world in anticipation of the 2014 FIFA World Cup. The ball that took 2.5 years to develop will be the official game ball for this year's tournament.
Want to see where Brazuca is on a daily basis? No problem, because the soccer ball has it's own Twitter account, with 120,000 loyal followers already (myself included). And when you follow it, you may even get a laugh from the tweets it produces.
Brazuca also just made it's first stop on the world tour... in Spain! It practiced with the Spanish National Team in preparation for the big games this summer as well as a School of FĂștbol where children learn to play the game.
Last Monday, March 10, we had a very scary moment in the NHL. Rich Peverly, who has a known heart condition, collapsed on the bench during his game against the Columbus Blue Jackets.
Here is the video, but you can't see much:
Fans and teams across the league expressed their concern for Peverly with tweets and posts right after it happened. For a few minutes fans sat in front of theirs television sets wondering what happened and how Peverly was. I refreshed my twitter feed every few seconds waiting for news to come out and thanks to Twitter I didn't have to wait long.
These tweets from the Dallas Stars started rolling out within minutes:
Thank you Twitter for keeping me updated. And I wish Pevs the best of luck during his recovery this season!
