Friday Fun: Are You Ready For Some Footbaaallll?!?!?!

It’s that time of year again.  Months of loyally watching each game on Sundays, Mondays and Thursdays, following each play yard-for-yard, has all led up to this moment: an unexpected (and if you’re not a Cardinals or Steelers fan, anticlimactic) matchup for Super Bowl 43.  I could rattle on about this subject (in case you couldn’t already figure it out: I LOVE FOOTBALL), but that wouldn’t fit with the social media theme of this blog.  I hope the following will.

Having spent a good deal of my time absorbed in following several teams this season, InGameNow could become my new best friend.  Through Ryan Spoon’s blog I discovered that InGameNow has recently launched a widget which allows fans to bring live sports scoreboards to their websites.  In addition to the new widget, InGameNow allows users to share analysis, gossip and more with other fans.  According to his blog, during the AFC Championship game, over 2,500 new posts were exchanged.

I, for one, will definitely be logging on this Sunday.  Now, if only we could get the Bears to the Super Bowl…(a girl can dream).
