Are you looking for some sweet Sochi 2014 Winter Olympic instructional goodies? Here’s what I’ve got:
Start with the basics
- Official Olympic site
- Official Sochi 2014 site
- NBC Olympic site. Be sure to check out their viewing guide so that you don’t miss anything. You’ll find links to schedules, TV listings, live streaming videos, and their mobile apps.
- Find out more on the Sochi 2014 Wikipedia page.
- You can’t understand the event without the mental map. Get a quick overview with some Street View looks at Tim the Traveler’s Google Map. Better yet, go a step further with a great Google Earth file from My Reading Mapped. Just download the file, make sure Google Earth is installed, double-click the file, and you’re looking at a very cool visual complete with Wikipedia links to all the venues.
