There are so many ways to stay connected and be up to date with everything happening in the sports world. We all know you can't physically be in more than one place at once but with social media you can be aware of all that is going on as updates are instantaneous. Sports teams all have their own website but these days that is not enough to keep everyone updated.
Along with the well known websites, there are also mobile updates, RSS feeds, blogs, e-newsletters, twitter, facebook...there are more but these are the most used. I personally use facebook, twitter and as of recently this sports blog, they are great to provide updates on sports highlights. Unlike websites, most social media is free to use and who doesn't like free stuff!
Out of curiosity, I checked out twitter and found that many major sports teams, associations, television networks all use this free tool to communicate with the public. For instance, MLB, the PGA tour, the Toronto Argonauts and the Canadian Olympic Team all have twitter accounts. The way technology is going, everyone should jump on the social media band wagon as it is becoming more popular by the day.
