I immediatley subscribed to Bill Simmons with ESPN as I think his work is awesome. I also subscribed to the power of applied kinesiology. This was with Blogtalkradio. I think it will be good to listen to people who are already in the field and the way that our program of choice is articulated.

The search options and the <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">variety</span> of things available on this site are second to none and it is very easy to see why this site ha<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">s taken</span> off. IT offers uses for both social and professional needs and I could see a coach putting a highlight tape on the site and also picking up pointers from a "how to video".

This site gives you an up to date list of what is going on in the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">blogosphere</span> and to me is a very valuable tool. I <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">relate</span> this to my current role in the corporate world and one of the things I am charge with doing is implying the importance of the <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Internet</span> to my customers. We talk about <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">SEO</span> and google <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">searches</span> and how to be "top of mind" <span style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffff00">and </span><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">this</span> site shows the results of those who use the blog to their advantage.

Twitter, facebook, and the use of blogs are many ways that coaches contact recruits. The things I find interesting are how coaches can use these tools to bounce things off of counterparts as well and how a coaching clinic can basically be completed in the virtual world.<br /><br />Another prime example is the fact that games are now recorded in multiple formats. Gone are the dyas of the VHS tape with the trainer taping from the top row of the stands. An exmaple of this si when the teams here in WI make the NCAA tourney they have game film of their opponent within hours via the Milwaukee bukcs and their extensive DVD scouting collection.

The piece by Baird and Fisher spoke of how initially and even still online learning was frowned upon because of a lcak of interaction. Maybe its just me but I have been using online studies for over four years and find them far superior to in class learning. The ability to do things at my pace is huge. The piece by Kajewski was also really interesting. Having already purchased eBooks for some of my previous classes it was enlightening to see how libraries are adapting on the fly and trying to stay relevant. Finally the piece on Social networking was great in that it really pointed out how this was nto a new concept. The unique part now is the ease and speed with which people can connect. <input id="gwProxy" type="hidden"><!--Session data--><input onclick="jsCall();" id="jsProxy" type="hidden"><div id="refHTML"></div>BClaytonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03483939135568322215noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340988181536168197.post-13291296132998395682010-01-24T14:05:00.001-08:002010-01-24T14:07:09.228-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiADBR0ie2hExrJ76QYdMUklntsnb3wgDmZKom-PnnpFjCjoJkLpKTIlsn-s87SNy0siuTN0qEKiM2T8p0rWFuTK8Vr4aupOSS6qzVtvhgJVoaK9PXJ-S3SzSKNK4FGrn7FW2jfNklmNWD/s1600-h/10620_135177844788_648449788_3407820_8253477_n.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiADBR0ie2hExrJ76QYdMUklntsnb3wgDmZKom-PnnpFjCjoJkLpKTIlsn-s87SNy0siuTN0qEKiM2T8p0rWFuTK8Vr4aupOSS6qzVtvhgJVoaK9PXJ-S3SzSKNK4FGrn7FW2jfNklmNWD/s400/10620_135177844788_648449788_3407820_8253477_n.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5430431152578165538" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Here is a picture of my son's first Brewer game.

With all of the advances in technology the fact that these games which generate great revenue for the institutions are being officiated and possibly decided with antiquated technology. IF you could watch the SuperBowl in HD or digital which would you choose?

BC stands for Bryan Clayton and I plan on giving you a glimpse of everything that is my life. Today is Wednesday January 12th, 3 days AD. That is 3 days after the death of the Packers in one of the worst losses this franchise has ever seen. Here in WI the packers are more than just a team, they are life. I know many people in this state who are still dazed and confused from the way it all ended and while there were bright spots it still will be a long off season. Here's hoping that guy named Brent chokes come Sunday so things can return to normalcy. <br /><br />I am hoping this blog will give you some insight into what makes a Midwest fan and in particualr a WI fan tick. We have different values than most fans and this a both a blessing and a curse. Oh well. Opening Day for the Brewers is only 81 days away. Bring on Spring!!!<br /><br />BC<br /><input id="gwProxy" type="hidden"><!--Session data--><input onclick="jsCall();" id="jsProxy" type="hidden"><div id="refHTML"></div>BClaytonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03483939135568322215noreply@blogger.com1
