Facebook opens new doors for athletes

Newspapers used to be just about getting information out to the masses.
You'd pay your quarter, get your paper and read about all the recent happenings.
My how things have changed, especially in the sports section.
Sure, newspapers can still be used to convey information, like sports stories and scores and even features and standings. And those things are great.
But with the advent of the technological age we now find ourselves in, it seems wasteful to limit the information we can gather and distribute just to the newspaper pages.
Our websites, www.A2journal.com and www.heritage.com, have all the stories we have in the paper, only in an online format, which is convenient for many web-savvy sports fans.
However, the social networking site Facebook also offers a unique way to get an even more in depth experience when it comes to checking out local sports.
The A2 Journal Sports facebook site can be found at here.
It is full of links to local stories, sports videos and even photo albums from events we cover.
It offers a forum for people to comment on games and events, and to learn more about the athletes of the Ann Arbor area.
Check it out for yourself!
