Sports Feed for iPhone is simple and quick
I have two folders of sports-related apps on my iPhone. Lately, however, I find myself frequently using Sports Feed, a free iPhone app that gives me a quick overview of scores and the latest sports news. To get up and running, you launch the app, and it asks you what you are interested in, MLB, NFL, NHL, NBA. You can select all, none, or any combination. That's it. When you return to the main app you'll have the latest news, scores, stats, and videos. They come from the usual sports services, like AP, Reuters, ESPN etc. If you find something you want to share, you can do it via email, Twitter or Facebook. There's nothing fancy here, but there is plenty of content. Sadly, you can't focus on one team, or re-order the results, but if you are looking for a quick smattering of news this is the app for you. As you scroll down, the stories get older, so you won't miss anything. I think all that's lacking is a search window, but casual users won't care. Sports Feed has some very loyal fans, and if you try it you'll probably become one too. %Gallery-185463% Sports Feed is not a universal app, but will run on all but the oldest iOS devices. It is optimized for the iPhone 5, and requires iOS 6 or later. The latest update, released today, has speeded the app up, added more sharing options, and improved video quality.
ESPN Front Row blog shows behind the scenes at the sports giant
Like most sports lovers with HDTVs, we watch a lot of ESPN, and on a few occasions have gotten to check out the inner workings of how it brings all that sports news to life, but today the network turns the camera inward by launching ESPN Front Row. This site aims to give a look at the day to day operations of the network and all the people behind the scenes. The launch event is a 24 hour series of photos that started at midnight this morning. Check out the intro video starring Kenny Mayne above, or click the read link below for a few more snaps of the campus in Bristol.
