原來早在2000年，IOC(國際奧委會)就已經明文禁止運動員在賽會期間，使用網路來作為「另類」新聞產製/發佈的管道：

It also includes learning the do’s and don’ts of Olympic competition: no steroids, no wearing branded clothing of unauthorized sponsors when receiving medals, and this year, no Web diaries.

The ban is stated in Rule 59 of the Olympic Code of Conduct, an International Olympic Committee document that all athletes must sign before competing in the Games. Rule 59 states that an Olympic athlete is not permitted to record his thoughts of his Olympic experience and have it posted on the Internet. Doing so would be tantamount to an athlete acting as a journalist, the IOC has determined. And that is grounds for being thrown out of the Games. Each athlete must sign the conduct code before boarding a plane for the Summer Games.

還有，Infostrada Sports 是這一次雅典奧運會欽選之 sports databases(athletes’ bios, medal counts, world records, etc.)服務商。不知道台灣有沒有人在做這個東西。我想，北京奧運前，國內會開始有人認真注意到這個 sports databases 服務的重要性，然後在2009年世界運動會(高雄市舉辦)半年前，開始頭大。:p
