The Minnesota Timberwolves announced late Weds. the launching of their re-designed website, providing consumers with a more sophisticated look while adding many new features. While the majority of Timberwolves.com will go live today (Oct. 21), certain features will be rolled out daily until the Wolves' Home Opener vs. New Jersey on Oct. 28.
One new feature of Timberwolves.com launch is .Com Guide, a listing of scheduled web content for the coming week. Much like a television guide, fans can use this handy guide to see when video, audio clips, stories, and more will be posted each week.
On Thursday, Oct. 22, a revamped Players section will be launched. The new Players section features a sleeker look, and provides bios, stats, photos, videos, and more for each player, while also including new desktop wallpaper for each player.
Friday, Oct 23 will see the roll out of the Game Entertainment section featuring all the game night entertainment from Target Center, including Crunch, in-arena hosts, Hoop Troop and more. An exciting new interactive feature is a Donkey Kong-styled video game where fans can navigate Crunch up ladders as he dodges basketballs to reach his destination.
On Saturday, Oct. 24, the Timberwolves Media Guide will be available for the first-time ever on-line. Fans can get bios and stats on this year's squad as well as a multitude of information from years past.
Monday, Oct. 26 is the debut date for WolvesNation.com, a separate website that takes social networking to a higher level. This site serves as a one-stop shop for all Wolves-related social media/networking information. Included on WolvesNation.com are the most recent photos/items that relate to the Wolves from Flickr, Forum, FanChatter, Twitter, YouTube, Facebook and more. WolvesNation.com also includes links to top blog sites and all official Wolves social networking sites.
On Tuesday, Oct. 27, a new-look Dancers site will debut, highlighting the talented Timberwolves Dancers with bios, photos and videos. A new interactive feature allows fans to "take a photo" with the Dancers by incorporating their face with a photo of the Dancers.
Finally, on Wednesday, Oct. 28 prior to the Wolves game vs. New Jersey, .COM Home Court will launch. This section includes real-time box scores and many other applications to enhance a loyal viewer's or listener's game experience.
