Intel launches ‘info stream football’
I hope everyone has had a great Christmas and enjoying the holiday period. As I was having a look at the latest news and innovations in social media and sport I came across this from Intel.
Initially it has been launched on Android (interesting that chose this first with iPhone to come later – usually its the other way round) and it comes with many features that stato football fans from around Europe will be interested in.
The app offers to provide 2nd screen insights I imagine aimed more at the TV viewer than those at the game. You can follow your particular team, get live match info on all key events (corners, goals, offsides, fouls, shots, yellow cards, etc), player stats which are updated throughout the game and fan chats.
This last element is interesting as it offers something more interactive. It allows you to see up-to-the-minute comments, etc from forums, Facebook, Twitter and fan sites as the game is progressing.
This is available for teams in the top leagues of Germany, England, Spain, France, Italy, Holland, Poland, Russia, Turkey and Sweden. This covers most of the top supported nations in Europe including some we would not usually expect.
Is this going to appeal to most mainstream fans? possibly not but it depends on how easy to use, interesting and interactive it really proves to be. Intel is a tech company and the main aim will be to show off the tech side rather than making it a great user experience.
You can download the beta Android version now here
For more info they have provided a YouTube video to explain it some more….
