In spirit of the Olympics, I thought it would be fitting to post about the Olympic related activity I have seen on the web recently.
Not surprisingly, reports from Beijing are widely available – I would hope that there’s a lot to report on as Gawker tallys the costs of the New York Times sending 32 reporters so cover the event! In addition to news, sites such as Global Voices are providing some interesting pieces.
It also looks like many people are tuning in via the internet as Brand Republic reports that NBC’s online coverage of the Beijing Olympics is already more than the whole of the Athens online coverage attracted. It is a shame that this has been slightly marred by reports of them unwilling to share the content.
Lastly, the New York Times have created this cool interactive map of Olympic medals so you can keep up to date with who has won what!
