With the Olympic Games are being held in Athens, Greece starting this week, there will be a new kid in town when it comes to Olympic News and views: Blogs. Whether from the armchair or an Athenian construction site venue, bloggers will be adding their two bobs worth on the ups and downs of the world’s biggest festival of sport. The Blog Herald takes a look at a few of the sites to watch:

I’m maintaining a blog featuring comments from volunteers working on the games in Athens. Most posts are relayed to me and then uploaded daily. Pictures will be uploaded in the next few days.

I too am lucky to be the reader of a pretty cool weblog that I have linked to above. Let me know if you think it is cool as well. It is called USA All The Way but it is not jingoistic. It is really laugh-your-butt-off funny, actuall.
