Fox Weather - A New Social Network For Weather Nerd

MySpace and Facebook are one of the superpowers when it comes to social network in the US and of course the rest are just following. But still there is no specific niche for people that are focused weather changes, which by the way happens a lot here in Texas. So News Corp launched Fox Weather a social network for weather junkies.

And just like with any social network, members can basically create profile, write blogs and post pictures of storms and clouds but the central feature of Fox Weather is the interactive Google Map that offers forecasts from across the nation. The map also includes high-definition radar, letting budding meteorologists feel like the evening news weather anchor as they watch animated rain clouds move across the country. And visitors can use the map without register or creating a profile (IMediaConnection.com.

At this time Fox Weather is still in beta so there's really not a whole lot of content.

This new social network is under the Fox Interactive Media umbrella, which includes MySpace, AskMen.com and IGN.

Ahhh ok ate vhiel, your blog site in blogger is also layout or you already converted it to template?! Kasi andyan parin sa baba ng page mo ang 'old posts' . Kasi we can't install our own design in blogger diba kung hindi ito naka revert template? Pero itong site mo parang hindi mo nirevert pero nagawa mo paring i design ito..
I love your blog ate vhiel. Thanks sa help mo. I appreciate it, a lot.!
