I just realized yet another reason why I absolutely love the Internet.
In my endless effort to try to provide you, the reader, with as much relevant information as possible for all of the major sporting events that occur throughout the year, it just dawned on me that instead of simply posting Masters score updates or linking you out to other sites that do, we can keep you constantly updated right here.
How? Well look to your right in the sidebar. Thanks to the good folks over at Masters.com, you can now stay updated with live Masters score updates right here at MSF. You can also grab the live Masters scoring widget for yourself and put it on your desktop, stick it on your blog, etc, etc.
I am very familiar with the concept of widgets, but why it had not dawned on me to use them more often to track events live, I will never know. Consider it a lesson learned and a site improvement moving forward.
Also, there are a couple of resources for tracking the Masters on your computer and/or iPhone that I want to alert you to.
First, rather than just tracking live Masters scoring, why not actually watch the Masters live online? Well, you can do it. Masters.com provides live online look-ins at Amen Corner (holes 11-13) and holes 15 and 16. Just follow the link to watch the 2009 Masters live online at Masters.com.
Also, to track the 2009 Masters on your iPhone, you can download the Masters iPhone app. I haven’t looked into it yet so I don’t know how much it costs or how good it is, but I’d love some feedback in the comments section from anyone who decides to try it out.
And no, I don’t get paid for referring you to these sites — but I figure by helping you track the Masters more efficiently while you’re at work or away from your TV, you’ll keep MSF in mind as a valuable resource when you decide to venture out into the sports blogosphere to supplement your sports news. So thanks for visiting, and we hope to see you back often to our little collaborate sports project here at Midwest Sports Fans.
We’re seeing some pretty low scores posted in the early rounds Thursday. Tiger tees off around 2:00 with the phenom Rory McIlroy in the final group right after Tiger to culminate the Opening Round. Enjoy the Masters everyone.
