Review of NBC's Tour de France app — three stars, five suggestions
http://cis471.blogspot.com/2014/07/nbcs-tour-de-france-coverage-three.html

At first, new media mimic old media and NBC's earlier attempts at covering live sporting events online was shaped by their traditional TV coverage — shoot video and insert commercials. This year, they have developed good ancillary data capability to go along with their video and dropped the commercials for a flat fee. Once they get the video and data synchronized and archived and I can lean back and watch the video or lean forward and play with the data, I'll give them five stars.

Beware the Red Devil and Mankini Man

The crazy outfits seen as the Tour de France riders go past are pretty eye-catching by design. I suspect it's all about getting caught on camera.

Beware of the Mankini! I actually spotted him twice. One time the TdF rider did a double take.

The Tour de France attracts spectators from all walks of life and their enthusiasm and ingenuity when supporting the riders is famous. They will do whatever it takes to see the race, relax in the sun when they’re waiting or use it for protest.
