Winter Olympics 2010 Vancouver Mobile Website
February 4th, 2010 MobileFreak
The 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver are just a few days away, and NBC has launched some interesting mobile services to let folks follow the action from wherever they are.
The Vancouver Olympics will clearly be the most mobile accessible Olympics in history, with NBC’s mobile website and apps (2 apps, to be exact) providing the following content:
- Top Stories
- Medal Counts
- Athlete Profiles
- Video
- Polls & Trivia
- Live Results & Schedules
- TV Online & Listings
- Vancouver Information
- Photos
NBC is also offering text message and email alerts, and you can sign up here to receive them. The nice thing is that you can select which winter olympic events you want to follow, so you’re phone is not getting a text message after every oh-so-exciting curling match (still not sure how curling is considered an olympic event, a sport, or even a hobby).
Now if only Vancouver could get some snow… Enjoy!

Yes, NBC for the US only however. Any Canadians wanting to get similar alerts for Canadian medals, Gold medals or Men’s and Women’s hockey, they can text OLYMPICS to 77788 or sign up on a mobile site at http://www.txt2look.com/olympics
