10 pointsby ryanbalmost 16 years ago
i made this at night while watching the first few games of the NBA Finals. i found it to provide some pretty good commentary while watching the games. pretty simple, but let me know what you guys think. any feedback is appreciated.

AT&#38;T did a similar idea for the NCAA tournament: <a href="http://titletweets.com/" rel="nofollow">http://titletweets.com/</a><p>They've dropped it for some reason, but the idea has legs.<p>Regarding your site:<p>- The graphic design needs a lot of work, but the functionality is there<p>- The title, live sports streaming on Twitter, isn't really accurate. People will expect video<p>- You've got to get tweetthegame.com or choose a new URL. Can't use an URL that requires an explanation, e.g. "There's only one t between 'tweet' and 'the', so t-w-e-e-t-h-e-g-a-m-e-.com"<p>Rule of thumb: if you can't say it on the radio without explaining it, get a new URL.

I implemented this idea with a fellow HN reader, derwiki, for the 2009 superbowl: <a href="http://twitterbowl2009.com/" rel="nofollow">http://twitterbowl2009.com/</a>

Didn't someone get in trouble for "live-blogging" a MLB game a while back? Something about MLB's broadcast rights.<p>Not sure if it applies, but it might be worth looking into.

Very cool site...has application beyond games too. For example, you could see your company vs. a competitor.<p>But love the idea and implementation.

Move beyond just games :)

You definitely need to change the colour scheme.

worth noting: tweetthegame.com was taken
