NBC Coverage of 2008 Olympics

I am currently watching 2 team matches online from nbcolympics.com. Earlier in the evening, I was able to watch Badminton, Taiwan Baseball and Archery too.

AMAZING! I can't believe it. I am still in shock about what's available. This may be better than being there. Everything is seemly available online.

Even Gymnastics in "rewind" form is awesome.

I have to give it up the guys that designed nbcolympics.com, its amazing. Although the UI could be improved, there's just too much stuff. Invariably, stuff will get buried.

Now, if they can just get "rewind" mode in for the volleyball and beach volleyball.

I was able to catch both men's and women's gymnastic finals. I have to give it up the teams from China, they were not flawless, but they were extra good. Everyone else was average or worst. By virtue, the teams from China took the gold.

I was impressed by Shawn Johnson on the balance beam. Shawn will be in contention for some individual medals during the next week.

I love the Olympics!
