Poker 2.0 News

Social networks are opened almost daily. One of them survive through years while others die or is lefto in agony for some time. Actually I do not know if ChipSociety will stand against its powerful competitors. So far it seems to have only fake members and 0 blogs. Even admin does not write here, so who will be the first? ;) Quite nice features are not used well. For example CHipSociety has got internal groops by brand fans and events. They can be helpful for lots of members, but when I see 50 members it is obvious, that there is nothiung to do in any of the groups. How the situation can be changed? Just hard work gathering some members. I would organize a few contests with a possibility to win $50 for best comment, blog and most active week in groups. Some people would take that chance to earn some mone. Others who come in accidentaly will immediately notice, that this poker social network is active and would register. Also there should be some announcements in social media, as...

When I have been doing the investigation of GOOD quality poker blogs by pros I had lots of troubles finding them. The poker room blog situation is better as more and more serious poker rooms do the social media research and start their own professional blog. I am very glad, so are the readers and players, because reading about newest promotion is soooo boring. Let’s congratulate PokerTime with the launch of new professional Blog called MyPokerTime . The blog writes about various interesting poker issues, including news from sponsored poker pros. Hopefully it will keep that way and will not become like Poker770 blog – the promotion news only.

This just sucks! I was searching for top level poker pro blogs and had so many troubles collecting the Top 10, because the majority of poker pros have neglected their blogs. That’s a shame, because nowadays having a blog may be a highly beneficial brand-building tool for any person or company. It is actually not that hard to write what are your up to once a week. Even if English is not your native language. I now present you some poker pro blogs which should not be followed. Let’s start with the 2 sexiest poker players in the World. Former model and tennis star from Finland was just able to lament “Hello World” (actually this is a standard Wordpress post title). It could be forgiven if it was some amateur blog on Blogger.com, but in this case it is the official Blog of Patrik Antonius at his official webpage which is run by the FullTilt team. Patrik Antonius himself is busy playing poker live and online, but it seems that no one at FullTilt Poker cares either. Another sexy pok...

Poker 2.0 is getting some speed and boost in the internet. In order to spread a word about Poker and web 2.0 technology junction, I have created some other blogs and write a unique content for them. Yes, i do not copy-paste, because it would be bad for reputation, and, of course, for SEO. One of the most successful unofficial blogs is hosted in one of the best poker blog engines PokerKnave . Another one is in a blog aggregation service which allows original blog writing - PokerWeblogs . Short notes with some interesting considerations or any other poker related stuff is run in Posterous (their main competitor Tumblr hates me and bans all the time for poker content. Probably these guys do not play poker and do not imagine how much content poker players can generate). One more blog is managed in one of poker social networks PokerNations . So far this is the best social network for poker players. Blog features can be improved, but all the rest is brilliant. Of course I continue writing a...

I wish every blog could have such fate - getting domain and having own design. Yes, I am moving to another domain and will continue from there. As you may noticed my Twitter account @poker_2_0 , I have a new professionally made logo (thanks to my designer Toma; she made a great work!) which contains web 2.0 style and colors. I still have not decided what to do with all my posts, so so far I left them here. From now on all the blogs will be written in another Poker 2.0 version: www.OnlinePoker20.com Please remember it in case you will get to the error page or something. Also i am going for vacation, so will be back only in July. Turkey, Marmaris, I am coming! ;)
