4INFO Offers Real Time NFL Alerts via SMS (Text Messaging), NFL WAP, & NFL Ready Reference Shelf

Today is the first Sunday of the NFL (American Football) season and 4INFO offers real time scoring and player stat alerts at no charge. Of course, you do pay whatever a text message costs on your wireless plan. Btw, college football began a few weeks ago and these alerts are available for teams in most of the major conferences.

1) Select Scoring or Player Alerts.

2) For scoring alerts, select the sport/league (NFL), team, and when to send the alerts. You can select as many as you like.
+ Game Ends
+ Quarter Ends
+ Score Changes
+ Lead Changes
+ Turnover
+ News Updates
Sign-in, verify, and you're done.

3) For player alerts, select NFL (no college football player alerts are available)
+ Select a team
+ Select a player
+ Select when alerts should be sent. Examples include:
Choose When to Receive Alert
+ every touchdown(s)
+ every 2 point conversion(s)
+ every interception(s)
+ every fumble(s) lost
+ every passing yards
+ every rushing yards
+ injury
+ game ends

4INFO offers more than sports alerts. You can send yourself reminders, weather alerts, package tracking alerts, and more.

Back to football. We recently posted an NFL "ready reference shelf" with direct links to rules, records, and tons of stats.

Click to view the article The fallacy of information overload
Wednesday, 23rd May 2012

A lot of the talk around social media in the last year has been around information overload. Social media has provided us with new and exciting ways to create content. But it has also meant learning new ways to manage and engage with social media tools. Are we teetering on the edge of an information overload precipice?


Click to view the article Information overload: fact, fantasy or filter failure?
Wednesday, 23rd May 2012

Information overload is a figment of your imagination. Or a failure of your filter. Or a symptom of your technological submissiveness. Depends on who you ask.


Click to view the article Newsdesk: tracking millions of pieces of information a day
Tuesday, 22nd May 2012

What if you had to sort through 3.5 million articles and social media posts a day and try to pull out the most relevant items for your organisation? What if you then had to cobble it all together into something readable for your top groups and executives in your organisation?
