Il Principe scored the only goal needed for FC Inter to defeat AC Milan, to get the 3 points and to give a new hope to his side when it comes to still being in the hunt to win the scudetto.

On our end, this game gave us lots of inputs on a few things that still need to be ironed out and fixed.

But we are almost there...

And when we do get there, it is going to be fun.

Because at the end of the day, our goal is to put a tool into your hands that can allow you to share your games with your friends. A tool that is so good, that can be used for pro games and amateur ones alike.

How cool is that?

You are going to enjoy this little app.

A lot!

Sat, 14 Jan 2012 13:29:00 -0800 You might have needed Noah's Ark... http://blog.visualsport.com/you-might-have-needed-noahs-ark http://blog.visualsport.com/you-might-have-needed-noahs-ark

The referee in Catania tried to keep the game going.

Players wanted to keep playing, too.

But under a torrential rain, Mother Nature had some other plans.

Game was called because of the terrible conditions of the pitch, with 25 minutes to go and one goal apiece for each time.

The app, fresh of some minor tweaking and adjustments, did not failed and we can say we are pleased with the results.

The client is as solid as ever and we are sure that it would have resisted the inclement weather in Catania.

We are going to keep testing the app, to be sure that when we launch you guys have the best experience possible, in terms of tracking and sharing.

Tomorrow, another game: the Milan derby, at 845pm CET/ 245pm ET.

Stay tuned and feedbacks are welcome!

Sun, 08 Jan 2012 12:27:00 -0800 FC Inter... Manita Italian Style http://blog.visualsport.com/fc-inter-manita-italian-style http://blog.visualsport.com/fc-inter-manita-italian-style

FC Inter dispatched Parma nice and easy...

5 goals to get the 4th win in the row and to get the right amount of momentum before the big match... no, the BIG MATCH against AC Milan, next week...

The game was good to watch, and even better to track with VS Tracker for mobile...

The client is solid, it works and it is easy to track whatever happens on the pitch, even when you have very fast paced moments during the game...

In this period, we are trying to stress the client as much as possible, in order to provide a great experience for the tracker (let's not forget that we want to put this in the hands of millions of people and we want them to use the client whenever they are out watching a game)...

We have found a couple of bugs/ things that need to be fixed, but overall the client is easy to use and whatever happens it is displayed on the gamecast right away...

Not to brag, but when Milito scored, our gamecast showed the goal a few moments before the one displayed by gazzetta.it...

The team is working hard on making the actual social experience more enjoyable and easier to be shared among friends...

We are getting there...

Some adjustments will be ready for next week, for sure, when FC Inter and AC Milan face off in a derby that means a lot to both teams...

So, we'll keep in touch and if you have feedback and suggestions, let us know...

The VisualSport Team

Sun, 09 Oct 2011 13:49:47 -0700 VisualSport tracker, some results about our iPhone app ;) http://blog.visualsport.com/some-data http://blog.visualsport.com/some-data

Hello guys, after some weeks we are collecting some numbers to understand how the VisualSport iPhone app is used.

We are using mopapp to get detailed information from simple stats.

We discovered that top downloads are from USA and UK, while Italy seems to be the 3rd largest audience.

What we really surprised us was about the registration rate...more than 92% of downloaded

As you probably noted, we never officially launched the iPhone app because we wanted to be sure that it was quite stable and collected data could be used in a more intersting way that we can now offer.

Anyway, expect some great news from us soon ;)

We are really proud to present VisualSport for the first time in the USA during the "Italian Innovation Day" today in Stanford.

It will be nice to get feedbacks about our service, even if the iPhone app is still waiting Apple review ;)

Anyway, it's a great chance for us to get feedbacks on VisualSport from great and smart people here in the Valley.

We hope to learn a lot ;)

Mon, 18 Oct 2010 01:35:00 -0700 Thanks for feedbacks! http://blog.visualsport.com/thanks-for-feedbacks http://blog.visualsport.com/thanks-for-feedbacks

After an exiting WorldCup, we would like to say "thank you" to all of you for your great feedbacks about VisualSport.

We really appreciated that most of you were nice to share and embed custom sports-data visualizations and someone used them to LIVE broadcast match-events on their own web-sites.

We were not sure about its adoption, but you did it ;)

We also got valuable critics and we used them to investigate further and to provide the right answer for each problem.

We also met some nice guy to understand how we could help in providing an effective evaluation on professional footballers' perfomances and the VSRate (the perfomance index we worked on) provided some good insights.

At the moment, we are back in the Lab to really understand users' needs and to make VisualSport more focused.

So, please apologize if you could not use VisualSport.com in the way you had before.

Anyway, the conversation is up an running so if you like to give us your ideas and share your feedbacks,

feel free to contact us on twitter!
