Also, the icons are colorized versions of the same icon from the Beijing Olympic site. Olympic site: http://images.beijing-2008.org/20070509/Img214070910.jpg

is there an RSS feed for these olympics results?
or maybe a google gadget/widget that you could embed in your own website?
|
This link should give you a list of different RSS feeds you can choose from for news about the Beijing Olympics: http://en.beijing2008.cn/rss/ |
Is anyone else surprised that Google haven't created an iGoogle gadget for the olympics? I'm fairly sure they did it for the football, rugby and cricket world cups...
Those NBC ones look ok, but you know the Google guys can do something much slicker, cleaner, more intuitive and more informative... |
This is a good idea, everyone like icons. I'm sure we will see a lot more of this. |
It seems to work now in Germany, too. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&gl=us&q=taekwondo+olympics&btnG=Search |
Stu, that's due to the "gl=us" parameter, which makes it work in Germany because it's using the US setting. But a normal query starting from google.com still won't work... |
The NBC sports doesn't stream video to Firefox under Linux.. |
That's a nice touch. One pet peeve – Google knows I'm on Pacific Time (it's in my user profile)... so why is it giving me EDT start times? C'mon. |
