Content, content, content.....

The MCLA is about to get cranked up this weekend.... We hope you all are enjoying the new CollegeLAX content. We have lots of articles and photo albums being posted on a daily basis to the site these days. News Editor Liz Alley has arranged some good new contributors to the site and are finally getting around to posting some of last year's photos. It's almost information overload!

If you only visit the forums without checking the main CollegeLAX page, you are going to miss some good content. We don't have enough time to constantly remind you in the forums to check out an article or some photos.

I've always said, if you miss a day on CollegeLAX... you miss a lot! That is true now, more then ever.

Couple of suggestions to maximize your visits to CollegeLAX:

1. USE THE RSS NEWS FEED -
http://www.collegelax.us/news/feed

Click the ORANGE button on the top right corner of the main menu bar above to get the RSS page. You can use the CollegeLAX RSS feed many ways - on your team or personal web site. You can also use it with online services such as My Yahoo or Google. You can even use it with a standalone RSS newsreader program.

Using the RSS news feed on your team's web site is a quick and easy way to add interactive CollegeLAX news headlines to keep your web site fresh.

If you want to link to CollegeLAX, you are encouraged to use the new logo available in the FAQ and displayed here:

2. USE THE SEARCH OPTION- All of the content that is going into CollegeLAX these days are tagged with various key words. If you want to find an article about a particular team, do a search on that team. If you want to find an article on WCLL Teams, do a search for WCLL. If you want to do a search on a particular author or photographer, do a search for the person's name.

There are options for displaying the news by one particular MCLA conference as well. Just scroll down to the bottom of the NEWS page (linked on the main menu bar above) and you will see the search field.

All of the CollegeLAX content is searchable by month/year and by category.

3. PHOTOS - All of the photo albums are linked here:
http://www.collegelax.us/news/category/photos/
in chronological order (by game date). Just click the PHOTOS link on the main menu bar above.

We will be posting many more from last year (and eventually will tackle previous seasons). You can also do a search of particular team and if there are some photos, they should appear in that search in chronological order.

4. PREMIUM MEMBERSHIP - If you are enjoying the content and want to help support your favorite lacrosse web site, please consider purchasing a CollegeLAX Premium Membership. There are lots of people helping on the site these days and we have a few more CollegeLAX surprises planned for 2008.
