Welcome back to the INSPIRE Blog!
You'll notice a few changes on the Connect page, and there may be a few more additions as we restructure our online presence. Let me take a minute to tell you where things are.
On the top of the frame you will see links to the Discussion Board, the Leaderboard, and the LiveChat/INSPIRE Cafe access. Below that is the INSPIRE Blog in its usual place.
The right column starts with an active leaderboard that will show the top-ten point earners (Note: Until we have points earned we will display the results from last year's Leaderboard.) You'll notice on the Leaderboard a category for "Team". Our community will be assigned to four teams for some 'intramural' activities. Your team will have a dedicated Discussion Board forum and an INSPIRE staff member to help out.
Below the Leaderboard is the NASAINSPIRE Twitterfeed. If you already have a Twitter account, don't forget to follow NASAINSPIRE and receive the tweets as soon as they are sent. If you don't (or can't) have Twitter, than you can use this feed to catch up. Beneath the Twitterfeed are some other NASA sponsored social media that may interest you.
And, of course, the INSPIRE Blog. This will be a place to read first-person accounts of NASA missions, business, and activities. But it is also a place for YOU to share YOUR story with your fellow community members. Just place your story in the Dropbox named "INSPIRE Blog" and you'll be awarded 10 points.
To start off, here is a topic starter: "You won't believe what I did this summer!" I'm looking forward to reading your submissions!
