Olympics coverage

Jack has a good commentary on the coverage of the Olympics so far.

I added my technical two cents to Jack's post regarding Google News coverage:

Google News has an “Olympics” tab, but to get it you have to scroll to the bottom of the page under the international versions and click “UK” or “Canada English”. There you will see two nifty Google gadgets, “Olympic Medals” and “Olympic Events”. You can then switch back to the “U.S.” version and you will still see the Olympics tab. When you leave Google News and return to it, the Olympics tab disappears!

Did NBC convince Google not to include the "Olympics" tab on the U.S. version of Google News? Inquiring minds want to know.

I like this site for coverage:
