joga Joga: Nike and Google Team UP
Nike has recently teamed up with Google to create the new online social networking site dedicated to football players and fans of the sport.   Joga, the site is undoubtedly aimed at creating hype around Nike leading up to the World Cup in Germany this summer.   Currently one can only become a member of the site through invitation, however you can ask for an invite on the site and they claim they will send you and invite in a few weeks.

“Joga will help you connect to people who share the same passion for the game and also access exclusive content around athlete profiles, video clips and photos.”

nike 1 New Nike Blog
Nike has introduced a new blog focusing on its new basketball shoe releases and promotions.   The site is rich in well produced Photography and breaking sneaker releases. Many bloggers have been critical of the blog for its lack of community because one can not comment on the entries.  

This is not the first entry into the bloging world for Nike, it was previously involved in the now dead blogs the daily snkr and the art of speed.

I will of course be monitoring the site to bring sneaker updates from the site.
