Newslinks Are Back
Newslinks have been re-added to The Ice Block. There’s a menu option for it towards the top, and the last ten will be located on the right, although I’m not sure if I’ll keep it on every page like it’s on now. Either way - they’re back for your hockey media reading convenience.
The links will take you directly to the story, the little icon next to it will open the same link, but in another window. If you’re using a browser that supports tabs, just hold ctrl when clicking to open up the link in a new tab.
Newslinks will remain active for one week. It’s common that many online newspapers pull their stories after that time and put them into a paid-only archive. On that note, I will post stories to websites that require free registration, but I will not post stories to sites that require paid registration. Newslinks are links to online mainstream media, or “old media” sources. Newspapers, magazines, radio and television stations. Blogs will have their own space here on The Ice Block soon.
Commenting is enabled on all Newslinks. Comments will typically remain open for the same seven days that the Newslink is active unless an updated link to the same story is posted (or they spiral out of control, I guess). Comments for Newslinks are just like the comments here for my normal blog entries, registration is optional and I hope to keep it that way.
There will be a feed for these soon, and I hope to also make an easier way for users to post Newslinks to help out. Until then, feel free to email me from the Contact link.
