One of our favorite past times at Filtrbox is figuring out fun but useful things to do with our technology.  So in an effort to showcase our robust content filtering technology, we decided to put together FREE widgets that can be used to track news on each member of Team USA as well as the individual sports in which Team USA is competing.  

For example, if you only want to follow Lopez Lomong, you can set up your widget to show news about Lopez only or if you care about Women Gymnastics only, you can set up your widget to show you news about Women Gymnastics only.   In addition, you can set up different combinations of athletes and sports.  Most olympic content consist of every bit of news about the Olympics and you have to do the filtering for the news that you are interested in. At Filtrbox, we do the filtering for you.

We have created two types of widgets, a blog widget to embed on your blog and a desktop widget that runs on your desktop.  Both widgets can be found here.

My favorite widget is the desktop widget and because its my favorite, it has an additional special page for itself here.

Download the widgets and enjoy the Olympics.
