GauchosPlay.com 2.0

16 September 2010

gauchosplay.comIn Color Digital Communities is please to announce the release of GauchosPlay.com 2.0.

This fully-updated version of their website incorporates a Content Construction Kit (CCK), allowing enterprise-class addressability for multi-departmental expandability, clad with clean new look. GP2 begins a new era for UCSB Rec Sports, allowing each department its own section of the site with sub-category control for each of the sports & programs which fall under it. For example, every Sport Club will have the ability to control the content for its own Micro-Site, including galleries, blogs, news, schedules and rosters.

This is a huge leap forward from the first version of the Gauchos Play website with which we went live two years ago. Tom Widroe and Art Fisher worked closely with student webmasters and coordinators, John Batikian and Rochelle Farnum, to make this site a strong foundation for future growth. Currently in its beta form, we expect GP2 to be feature and content rich by the end of Fall Quarter 2010.

Included in GP2 beta is a Google Schedule, Social Networking (integrated with Facebook Connect) and a couple dozen micro site, comprehensively incorporated with all the original content from version 1.0 of the site. UCSB Rec Sports Director, Paul Lee, is ecstatic:

Just a quick note to say "thanks" for your continual involvement and contributions to UCSB Rec. Sports.  Also, thanks for always having the best interest of our students at heart!

All the best,
Paul Kuan Lee
Director of Recreational Sports
