Have you heard of the 2008 Olympics that are scheduled in Beijing?
If so, you’ll know that there is a HUUUUUUGE market of diehard Olympics fans! Not only do they adore following the Olympics, but they also collect Olympics memorabilia, look for HDTVs to watch the Olympics (NBC will offer an incredible amount of HDTV hours), buy Olympmics-sponsored goodies and much much more.

If you’ve been online for more than, hmmmm, 17 seconds or so, you’ve probably heard about Twitter - the nifty site that lets you communicate in chunks shorter than 140 characters.
If so, you’ve probably noticed that people use the TinyURL function to easily let their friends know about super neat blog posts, websites, etc.
