We've got the
Untamed Virginia Adventure Race Team Page wired up now, along with
team specific pages where the content is controlled by the team (for registered teams, the team captain gets a login and password to create/edit content on their team page). There are two teams listed as registered, who actually found the registration page before we announced it officially -- so we're happy to have the guinea pigs demo the functionality for everyone.
It'll be interesting to see where teams go with this idea; I imagine some kind of team bio will become standard, maybe highlighting past results and sponsor relationships. Heck, teams could even make it into a type of online diary (weblog?). Some teams will probably not do anything, which is also fine with me. This is sort of an experiment to see if this is useful and, ultimately, adds to the enjoyment of the event -- I'm certain it will make for some interesting distractions from "real" work. Many teams have mentioned this sort of feature to me, so I know many are curious and itching to learn more about their fellow racers. Power to the people!
Did I mention that
registration for the race is now open? We'll have the other HRAdventure events open for business within the next 48 hours . . .
