Going Mobile With the NCAA Basketball Tournament

Yesterday on ResourceShelf and on DocuTicker we posted a bunch of resources including rule books, record books, and other content about the 2007 NCAA basketball tourney that got underway Thursday afternoon.

What about mobile resources for tourney news and information?

Here are a few of many resources that are available for wireless web users:

+ 4INFO.net: NCAA Tournament Pass
Get game alerts (final scores) as well as upset alerts (sent during the last minute of the game if the underdog team might be the favorite)
++ Real Time Scores and Stats

+ ESPN Mobile
++ Scores
++ News

+ CBS Sportsline
++ Scores
++ Tournament Headlines

+ Fox Sports Mobile

+ USA Today

+ CSTV Wireless Alerts (Free)
For many schools and sports.

+ AOL and Yahoo

+ SMS for Scores: UpSnap, 4INFO

+ Associated Press (via MobilePlay)

+ The popular Handmark Software, Pocket Express, offers free real time scores and stats. The also have a tournament blog.

+ Finally, if you're phone or mobile device allows you to stream audio, Tuned.mobi is an excellent guide, optimized for wireless users, with direct, one-clink links to many stations in the U.S. A great way to get a "local view" on a team. Of course, this guide can be accessed and used on any web browser. In most cases, each listing offers info about a stations format. Look for stations with sports, news, and talk formats.
