Aren't athletes too busy taking undetectable super-drugs and roasting glamour models to get into online social networking?
Maybe that's just the professional ones. SportsGist, a new site, says it's encouraging athletes to get in touch with each other via videos, photos and blogs.
The site's aimed at athletes of all levels, and has apparently been signing up around 3,000 new members a week since going live late last year. That said, the niche service faces plenty of sporty competition.
