Re: Team Communication Methods

My team (FIRST Team 1511, Rolling Thunder) uses a combination of methods. We have an e-mail system very similar to the one DoronS described for Stuypulse. It is used for weekly team e-mails, and announcements for the whole team or a select subsection of the team. Individual subteams will use their e-mail distribution for back and forth conversations during build season.

We post breaking news and top calendar items on our webpage and also have a forum on our website for general interest conversations and things that we want to make available to a larger audience.

We also have a wiki page(s) to track activities related to the robot build season so all team members can know the progress of the individual subteams. It is maintained as our engineering notebook and is very useful for documenting lessons learned from year to year.

New this year, we have a Facebook page, but it is mostly for fun since not all of our team members are on Facebook.
