For a growing number of people, Twitter is an important source of information and social interaction. Yet little has been done to integrate sports data in interesting ways.Most sports-related media outlets that have a Twitter account simply blast everything through a single account. I don't know about you, but I don't find this very useful. I prefer Twitter updates targeted at just the teams I'm interested in. And I'm not talking about just a news feed. It needs to be as if each sports team had a twitter account and a stats geek behind the scenes tweeting interesting stuff.
That's exactly what the StatTweets accounts are intended to do (but it is all automated). Not only can you follow just the teams you are interested in, but you can interact with each account to retrieve team and player stats dynamically. Check out the usage page for more details.
Get news, live game scores, standings, rankings, point spread updates, and other stats for your favorite basketball or football team all from Twitter!
