On the heals of the new live scoreboard integration within our iPhone Apps, InGameNow has added real-time boxs cores. The box scores appear on game pages - they update for live games and are chronicled for past games. The box scores are available on www.ingamenow.com (which renders nicely for the iPhone) and will come to the iPhone Apps shortly. Stay tuned:
InGameNow has released updates to all of its iPhone Apps - just in time for March Madness and the NCAA Tournament: - Live scoreboard - New format for in game results / chatter - Live scores in the header of each game page - Scoring alerts (live across the iPhone, Gtalk, AIM, etc)

You can already take InGameNow on the go with our iPhone Apps and Google Talk / AOL Instant Messanger integration. Now you can take InGameNow directly to your website with our new live sports scores and scoreboard widgets. On an aside, InGameNow is starting to gain serious momentum. During Sunday's AFC Championship game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens (two small/medium-sized markets), over 2,500 InGameNow posts were exchanged specifically about the game. And the day before, we launched a full scoreboard on the homepage that we are continuing to roll-out thorughout the site and team pages... much more to come in the next couple weeks.
InGameNow has had a busy week (real-time scores and new Apps) - and here's one more: we've launched the InGameNow NFL iPhone App and, after just one day, it's quickly becoming our most popular. I think two things are worth noting here:
- first, we have seen that narrowly-focused apps are performing very well. While our core InGameNow App has been very successful, the league specific apps are growing faster and we have several more coming shortly. I was surprised by this - but excited nonetheless.
- second, real-time scores have already played a major role in the NFL App's success. Predictably, live scores are most important for mobile users. Delivering real-time scoring alerts has encouraged deeper, more relevant discussions and today was consequently the biggest day InGameNow has ever seen on all fronts: users, interaction, posts, etc.
- InGameNow now has three new iPhone Apps (all top sports apps in iTunes). Download them: - InGameNow App - NFL InGameNow - Soccer InGameNow
We are very excited to announce the launch of real-time scoring on InGameNow and our InGameNow iPhone Apps. On team and game pages, you will notice real-time alerts of scores. The posts come from the InGameNowAlerts user and include the game's score and timestamp.
You can see an example of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Detroit Lions game (showcasing because it is rather high scoring). You can see another example on a team page: New England Patriots Scores are here.
This is a big step forward for InGameNow - giving fans access to real-time scoring and fan interaction over on the web, the iPhone and instant messaging. We have several new enhancements and features in the works - and, as always, if you have feedback on the current product (specifically the live scoring) we welcome your input.
As I have posted previously, InGameNow has a Sports & Scores API. If you interested in developing against it and working with InGameNow, please contact me!
The InGameNow iPhone App is consistently one of the 15 most popular sports Apps in iTunes and on the iPhone. We've released an updated version of the core InGameNow App and based on user feedback, we have two major updates:
- Coming in a couple days: Full, automated live scores and alerts - Live with more coming: League and team specific Apps
... And while real-time scores are a couple days away - our first league specific App is now live: InGameNow's Soccer App launched early this morning for professional soccer - covering both international (Premier League) and US (Major League Soccer / MLS):
InGameNow Soccer App - Real time interaction for soccer fans - Team schedules, alerts and discussions - Ability to set favorite teams and users - App customization
If you're a soccer fan, get the InGameNow Soccer App!
The InGameNow App officially went live in iTunes just seconds after the Red Sox lost to the Tampa Bay Rays (so I got some joy out of the night!). I invite you to visit iTunes (or search for "ingamenow" via the App Store on your iPhone), install the app and use it. I'd also love to get any and all feedback!
Core components of the app:
- Live integration with InGameNow: seamless posting and pulling - Automatic scores / posts updates - Dashboard of games that are “InGameNow” (screen shot below) - Full schedule and browse accessibility by league and team - Ability to set and monitor favorite teams

We've been hard at work on the InGameNow iPhone Application and got great assistance from a collection of beta testers. We have just released the 99% complete first version of the app (a couple changes coming) and are ready for full beta testing. So if you are an avid sports fan and an iPhone user, please email me directly for beta access. The application should be available in iTunes shortly (knock on wood).
