Facebook Takes London Olympics Public









With a little over a month to go before the opening of the London Olympics,? Facebook has launched an official London Olympics page for fans to connect with their favorite athletes and teams, a move it says can help make this summer?s games the first ?truly social? one.

Some athletes and London Games organizers already connect with their fans on the online social network, but Facebook says its new ?Discover London 2012? page will bring together profile pages of hundreds of athletes, national teams, and official organizing bodies to make them more accessible to its 900 million users.

?I?m sure that through Facebook and all of our other social media channels we will manage to bring a new dimension to the games for a new audience,? said IOC media rep Mark Adams.

The site features pages dedicated to specific Olympic sports and links to the official pages of about 60 national teams and 200 athletes, including household names such as swimmer Michael Phelps, basketball stars LeBron James and Kobe Bryant, and soccer?s David Beckham.

The page is available in 22 languages.
