A Roundup of Olympics Resources

Between the tornado watches and the flood warnings and the rain that just wouldn't stop over the weekend, I did manage to watch a bit of the Olympics. As you might expect there are plenty of online resources to give you all the skinny as you follow along.

The official results are available at http://www.athens2004.com/en/results/results . This page is a grid with the events and dates on it. Click on a part of the grid and you'll be taken to a roundup page for that sport.

The Librarians Index to the Internet has a group of Olympics-relevant pointers at http://lii.org/search/file/olympics . His Garyness Mr. Price has a fast-fact page at http://www.resourceshelf.com/2004/08/fast-facts-resources-for-2004-olympics.html which includes everything from biographies to venue information. Finally, CollegeSports.com has a Collegiate Olympians database at http://www.collegesports.com/cgi-bin/olympic.cgi , which contains the name and sport of current US college student-athletes competing in Athens (not all of them are representing the US.)
