Normally I would pay little attention to the Australian Open Tennis Championships, and even less to the official web site for the event. But since our son is the webmaster for the site, and is required to travel to Melbourne for the month to do his thing, and since I'm just itching to brag about it to someone.... you, gentle reader, will have to hear about it.
Actually the site is pretty cool, and technically quite ambitious, as you might expect from Big Blue. Check out "PointTracker", a computer simulation of each point, as the match is being played. Match scores appear on the site at the same instant they show on the courtside scoreboards, for those of us you who just have to stay on top of the action all through the tournament, so you don't miss an upset.
Don't forget to write, kid. (Maybe it's getting to be old hat for him)
