Not able to get yourself in front of the TV? \u00a0I won’t, I’ll be traveling, so I looked into what mobile apps are available. \u00a0NBC is offering two free apps for Android and iOS:<\/p>\n

Who’s Watching?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Curious as to who’s watching which events at the Summer Games? \u00a0Here’s a breakdown by men vs. women. \u00a0No surprise women’s favorite sports to watch are gymnastics and swimming. \u00a0And women will be actively socialcasting more so than men through social media channels. \u00a0Techbargains.com<\/a> sent me this infographic based on their research which I just had to share. \u00a0Enjoy and tweet me @wellconnectdmom your Olympic tweets!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
