More Stuff to download so your Computer is World Cup Ready

By: WC Bob | May 23rd, 2006 | 6 Comments »

I memorized the entire World Cup schedule a few months back (go ahead, test me), but for those of you who aren’t as anal as me, this site has any number of ways for you to get the games on your calendar with the starting times in your time zone. There is also a new World Cup FootieFox extension for those of you who use Firefox as your browser. I’ve used it for a few months to follow games in the European leagues while I work and it is always exciting when a goal announcement pops up unexpectedly. The World Cup version is a bit buggy, but I imagine it will be improved in the next few weeks. If there are other ways for the World Cup to take over our computers, let us know.

I grabbed a freeware program for my Palm TX from sk7software. It’s very slick.

The Outlook plugin is pretty buggy – it put in 2 records per game, at the wrong times.

I tried the google calendar and imported the World Cup schedules from other ppls shared calendars. That works well for me.

Just saw the website http://www.worldcupkickoff.com and pulled up the schedule for group E.
Wouldnt it be sweet if USA beats Czech at 11am and Ghan beats Italy a couple of hours later at 2. Heres to dreaming!

The Footie Fox is pretty cool. I like seeing the flags for Germany and Costa Rica waiting for me in the corner of my toolbar.

Is anyone aware of a March Madness-style bracket website where you can invite your buddies for a World Cup bracket (and make a few bucks in the process)? ESPN certainly yet has to realize that this may be an opportunity to generate a buzz around the tournament that they are broadcasting.

This website has a downloadable dynamic WC excel sheet, but this would still require quite a bit of manual processing if an office bracket is what you are trying to accomplish: http://world-cup-2006-schedule.en.softonic.com/ie/47647
