There are other ways to follow the Olympics via the App Store too, however your options are limited:
– Lenovo Summer Olympics (FREE): only follows American athletes, very limited scope
– Beijing2008 ($1.99): A medal tracker, pretty basic
– Fandora’s Box 2008 Summer Games ($0.99): results, news, and highlights
– iOlympics ($0.99): displays current Olympic and World records so you can win every single argument with your friends and family

Who do you guys think will end up atop the medal standings? China? USA? South Korea? Canada (in our dreams)? I can’t wait for Track and Field to start…ciao!

Morning iphonians! Sorry im off topic again but last night i discovered a great website for making ringtones!! And its so easy! i dont know if im allowed to post a website on here iphone fan so let me know ok. I cant believe how easy it is and ive never heard of it. Ive been looking for this for a month! YAY 🙂
now I really wanna no the website.. come on! u can jus start things off and not finish them
um… ok… check out audiko.net , its entirely free and you can use any song in your library!! or you can just pick from what they have. Im still playing with it and ive learned to first of all ‘download iphone ringtone’ AND also ‘download to desktop.’ When i didnt downloaded to desktop and closed itunes then reopened it, the file would be missing and not play.
Am I missing it, or did you forget to put the link to the cbc olympic site? Half of it is in your screen shot but that’s all I see.
IsrealsSoN13: LOL! You are correct! I just added it…
The website now has the medal count at the top of the page–finally!
Cool post.
I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of this past Olympics. This wa the first one ever that I truly watched almost every event especially Michael Phelps.
