Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

The first link doesn't need faceslap but let me summarise:

There was some snow. Quite a bit really. 14 inches since Thursday. Now they are worrying tis going to melt.

Its been really breezy too.

3 local lads went off piste in a high risk of avalanche. You can guess the rest...

But I don't get why Mr Marx likes to post these. I'm guessing he has an embedded pay per hit somehow?

Absolutely not. SKI.HUB is what is says ...

Quote:
This is an experiment in developing a (non-commercial, no-spam) ski information hub, link buffet, photo feast, video fest, joke machine, chat factory ... and the usual Fleet Piste of rolling news.


Non-commercial also means SKI.HUB is non-income (since Facebook provides the platform for publishing it for nothing) ... but it's important for it to have a semi-independent readership/membership and hosting, in relation to future linked projects. I've been posting free news on various platforms: ifyouski.com, SCGB, Winterhighland, EpicSki, snowHeads etc. for some 15 years, following c.25 years ski journalism in print.

Personally I have no problem with the concept of independant collated source of ski info but you immediately shoot yourself in the foot by using Faceache, which is only available if you agree to their terms and conditions.
Surely you DG must think their t&c's are worse than snowheads, which you at times haven't seemed to happy to sign up to?

I do wonder why anyone over 14 would want to "promote their FB page". How sad can people be?

@pam w, fb can be a very successful business marketing tool. My friend opened a cafe in the middle of nowhere (almost) and her networking skills teamed with facebook did all her marketing work for next to nothing. DG is unfortunately not enjoying any where near the same level of success (she has almost a thousand page likes in a few months where as DG only has 200ish despite the spamming on here).

@pam w, not currently, but my view is that it is his dearest wish - to be financially rewarded and recognised for his ski journalism (didn't he try to get £20 a post off Admin?)

My new lodger does training for small businesses in how to use social media for marketing - I ought to get her to get me up to speed with Facebook.

 And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

@pam w, im cheap, I'd do a deal at 1p. My friend is naturally very friendly and "networky"...so she got her followers very quickly.

Facebook is great. As I have a large family its a godsend for organising and sharing information - just instant message them all in a group so we can all chat. Also nice for sharing photos - even if it is just of my dinner Wink

 So if you're just off somewhere snowy come back and post a snow report of your own and we'll all love you very much

50 p per post, you should send Admin a invoice for 20 grand!

BTW the links to Ski.hub seem to be broken, when I clicked on them I got taken to a login page on The Facebook.

Your username and password? Why is David using your username and password? That seems odd.

Yes, all very odd. I'll have to investigate this.

In the meantime, sticking with the 'mega March snowfalls in Europe' theme ... the SKI.HUB link-vole brings you ...
