The Big Blog Make-Over

So if you haven't noticed, the blog has totally had a face-lift. Not only has it been brought back to life, but there is also a new writer to add to the ranks. (Shh...it's a total secret. But she will be unveiled & properly introduced SOON, in all her Rollergirl obsessed glory. I will say this...she is totally & completely perfect for the job at hand & is the missing puzzle piece this blog has looooong been lacking. That is all.)

However, my super secret awesome partner-in-crime & I have totally been plotting & planning our way into your Roller Derby lovin' hearts. And frankly...

...There are GREAT things on the horizon for ARGB!!!

The biggest changes this week are:

• The new Name. We are "The Austin Rollergirls Blog" (or ARGB, if you're lazy like us).
• The new MySpace sister site: http://www.myspace.com/austinrollergirls
• The Blog Address Change to http://austinrollergirls.blogspot.com/

There are MANY more changes coming. We are growing, changing & evolving. So don't miss out. We are dedicated to bring you the best of what Austin Roller Derby has to offer.

Your fellow Super Fans,
Skate Bettie & company

NEW Blog Address!!!

We have a NEW web address. So reset your bookmarks! The new address is:

http://austinrollergirls.blogspot.com/

Our old address of "texasrollergirls.blogspot.com" has been a good one for the past year. However, our focus is Austin Rollergirls. And frankly, it's too close to the Texas Rollergirl flat-track team, which isn't fair since we cover both the Lonestar Rollergirls AND Texas Rollergirl Austin teams. Because we heart BOTH banked & flat track, bitches. And our name should reflect that!

New MySpace Page

The Austin Rollergirls Blog is now on My Space. It's not even 24 hrs old yet, so it's still a work in progress. Right now, I've just been focusing on trying to add all the Austin Rollergirls to My Friends one-by-one. (And there are sooooo many.) But soon it will have a Calendar with dates to all upcoming bouts & Rollergirl events, both in Austin & Nationally. And I'll periodically add some pictures & video. It should be a lot of fun & a great sister site to the Blog.

A New Year for Austin Roller Derby

And a new year for blogging. I'm breathing new life into the blog this year. 2006 is over & done with. I dropped the blogging ball last year, but life rolls on, so on with the new.

Welcome to 2007 Austin Roller Derby!!!

I'm determined to do what I can to make this blog awesome this year. Austin is like the capital of the modern Rollergirl era. Pioneers on 8 wheels, if you will. This town has 2 kick ass Rollergirl Leagues, both flat track & banked track. I mean, what more could you ask for! They deserve to have a site dedicated to Austin Roller Derby.

So, keep checking back soon. I'm going to be working my ass off for the next few days & get this blog rolling.

Updates Coming SOON!!!

Sorry, I've been super busy lately. I hosted a party on 1/21/06, so everything else just got put on the back burner. Lame, I know. But it couldn't be helped.

But never fear!

I've been working feverishly on updating the blog. I got a bunch of Rollergirl news comin' at ya including my snarky reviews of the 1st few shows. Better late than never right!
