Follow Real Athletes’ Tweets with This Penn Alum’s New Website

Hey sportsfans out there!  Don’t really understand what Twitter  is, don’t want to join Twitter, and/or don’t know which athletes on Twitter are real or imposters?

David Katz (W’94, Varsity Basketball) just launched an innovative new site called, www.AthleteTweets.com, that aggregates all of the players and coaches Twitter feeds on one website.  Plus, AthleteTweets has validated the Twitter feeds for all athletes and posts them all in real time.  Per David, “for a sports fan this is the best reality show not on TV”.

David is no novice to the web. He used to run the interactive division at CBS Television and then ran Yahoo! Sports and Entertainment. In 2007, he left Yahoo! to start SportsFanLive to create a next-generation sports site after complaining for so long how all of the other sports sites were “all the same”. SportsFanLive has been described as “ESPN meets Facebook.”

Check out some of the reviews David has received below:

• Las Vegas Sun
• Baltimore Sun
• MediaWeek
