Score updates on RugbyTweets

February 7th, 2009

Rugby ball

Live match updates have been added to teams on RugbyTweets in the Guinness Pemiership, Magners League, Six Nations and Tri Nations. This means that all teams in those leagues will get tweets sent to them when there is a try, conversion, penalty, yellow card or red card.

I started the system with the England v Italy Six Nations match and tweaked it during the match. Let me know in the feedback forum or reply to @ollieparsley on Twitter if you see any issues.

UStream Q&A and feedback session

February 6th, 2009

I am doing a live UStream Q&A and feedback session on Tuesday 10th February, in the evening, about 7pm GMT. It will be on my new Ollie Parsley UStream.tv channel. I will not have a plan at all, I’ll simply talk about developments and answer your questions and ideas. If all goes well I might make it a regular thing.

Please add your comments below and let me know if you will be watching.

Earth football

Today I have added 21 international football teams. There could well be more to come if there is demand for it. Don’t forget any feedback or suggestions should go into the Feedback Forum.

The news feeds for the teams will be updated when I add the ability to add more than one news source to each team.

International rugby teams will be added over the next few days.

RSS

Each team on the 3 sites now has their own RSS feed. The feed contains their latest news updates and goal updates (if available). I haven’t forgotten about you ATOM feed lovers, they are available too. The data in the feed is as up-to-date as the Twitter feed for each team.

Just go to a teams page and click on the RSS icon at the top of your browser.

You might have thought I forgot about rugby league teams! But I hadn’t. All the Super League teams are now available to follow. Check out RugbyTweets.com for more info.

Don’t forget if you have any ideas leave them in the feedback forum.

MLS teams added

January 13th, 2009

MLS logo

As of about 10 minutes ago FootyTweets now has the MLS East and West conferences availible to follow. In the off-season there is just news. When a source of goal updates is found they will be added. UK Coca-cola League Two teams are still to be added. It takes a long time to add them so I am working up the energy to put a good few hours into getting them added!

Let me know what you think. If you have any ideas please put them in the feedback forum.

Football league 2 teams coming soon!

January 12th, 2009

After a few people asking for Coca-cola League 2 teams I have decided to take the time and add the whole of League 2 to FootyTweets. I will blog about it again when it is live.

If you have any more league suggestions please leave a comment or contact me on Twitter.

Update: Coca-Cola League Two teams are now live!
