"Olympic fan is easy to use Olympic guide that brings You all the information for the medal winners in all Olympic categories and events ever existed !
Olympic fan is divided into two conceptual parts, the History of Olympic Games and Athens 2004 Live Coverage. Here are the key features of each of them :
History
• find with ease the names of the winners in all olympic events ever held.
• find out medals , won by each country through the years.
• learn more about the history of the games and the host cities from
• Athens 1896 to Athens 2004.
• all time medal table , of all countries recognized by the IOC (International Olympic Committee).
Like the idea of the program (I bought it) it seems to do all it advertises.
Some of the features could be more robust, but when I need those I'll just look on the Web (I have a TV and a TIVO in my office, so I won't be getting too much work done for a month or so.)
But I do wonder what will happen to the company when the Olympic Committee finds it.
They are very protective about the name Olympics (and own it for pretty much everything) and the interconnecting circles they defend like a mother bear to her cubs.
I know because in '96 we were working on a project for the State of Texas and got a really nasty letter from them (but written on very nice stationary) about using the Olympic name to promote travel to the Olympics.
I hope they don't end up getting shut down and I don't get updates. I sent the developer an e-mail and asked them what they might do. I'll wait to see what I hear back.
They might be too small to care about, let's hope.
I just heard back from the guy and if they have to change things they will without too much effort.
He said that they will also release a new version in a week or two with some pretty cool updates.
Once I get this I'll probably do some sort of mini review on it just for fun (plus I know even if you don't want the software now you will once the Olympics start).
