Sportingo.com - A Fan-Generated Experience

Do you secretly want to be a sports writer? Sportingo is your shot at proving your writing chops and sharing your perspective with the millions of other sport fans out there. And there are millions...or billions maybe. This site is unique because it is fan-driven. It is a platform for sports fans to read, write and talk about sports. Especially European and South American sports (football - aka soccer, cricket, rugby, tennis). All the articles, feedback, comments and recommendations are coming from the fans themselves. Fans' articles cover all sports and range from match reviews and team performances to nostalgia articles about memorable moments in sport. Once published on the website, other fans can comment and rank the articles. Sportingo also provides a media guide of all audio and video sport content available via the internet. They say that sports fans will also soon be able to upload their own local sports matches and events to the guide; links to photos or to video footage. If you are a fan of sports (or maybe a fanatic about sports?), this is the site for you.

 
  In their own words  

"Sportingo is an international, on-line, sportswriters' community by and for fans. At Sportingo, the readers are the sportswriters who submit articles and see them professionally edited and posted online as reports, features, and editorials."

  Why it might be a killer  

People, especially teenagers are passionate about sports. They can spend many hours in front of a PC wanting to know what happened to their favorite team or any news that has to do with the sport they love. This site helps them do that.

  Some questions  

The site is loaded (over-loaded?) with content and it was a bit overwhelming to focus on all the information they provide. But, that may be perfect for those sports fanatics out there. Also, does this site appeal to American sports fans? Again, there are probably enough viewers for all the other countries out there, but Americans are a huge advertising base.
