SI is one of the first major sports publishers to launch and
successfully sustain rich product and content experiences in the social
media space. SI's approach to anchor sports news, data and information
to tools to easily allow sharing, conversation and engagement among
common fans taps into the inherent social aspect of sports. This
philosophy is epitomized by FanNation, which enables a two-way
conversation between users while aggregating, filtering and customizing
sports information. SI extends this approach through its partnership
with Citizen Sports, which brings a deep sports data and content
experience to fans' favorite social media sites. Built on the idea that
sports are more fun with friends around, Citizen Sports' professional,
college and high-school sports fan applications can be found on
Facebook, MySpace and hi5.
