Amazon wants to sell you stuff. If there is something you are willing to spend money on, Amazon will find a way to take your money and deliver said item to you. Now, they are moving into the lucrative world of sports memorabilia.

Every now and then you come across an application that blows you away. Recently, I wrote an article about applications for skiers and snowboarders, and this one flew under my radar. Recently, I decided to spend the $0.99 to try it out, and I must say that Ski Tracks completely blew me away. This application offers so much for skiers that it is staggering. I just got into skiing this season, and I absolutely love it.

ESPN has launched their Winter X-Games application for iOS and will be launching it soon for Android. It’s an awesome app that is chock full of extreme sports goodness. What makes it really interesting for hardcore tech junkies is that ESPN chose to integrate group SMS messaging service GroupMe into the app. This is an incredibly smart move for both parties.

Say what you will about Gameloft, but their games are generally of high quality. Sure, they kind of take other people’s ideas and make them their own, but they do it in a way that exudes quality. Other than Chair, they are the most prolific company at putting out high quality, beautiful looking games on the iPhone and iPad. They have top quality shooters, action, strategy and even sports games.

Since I am a giant nerd, the first thing I did when I decided to ski was to look for iPhone apps dedicated to the sport.

For as long as I can remember I have had hockey skates strapped to my feet. But it is a complicated sport filled with all kinds of intricacies that need lots of knowledge and years of experience. However, there are plenty of websites on the Internet that can offer all kinds of information for the budding hockey player.

I have made it no secret in my previous article about MMA Podcasts that MMA is my favorite sport. While podcasts are great for entertainment, due to the turnaround time from recording them to listening to them (if you don’t listen live) the information is not as up to date as reading about it on a blog with a full-time staff checking out what is happening at all times. These sites have exactly that.

Sports games are a very popular genre for any gaming platform. For Chrome right now there doesn’t seem to be a lot of sports games out there, but there are some that are good. There are games from many of the major sports, but some of them are just terrible. For all you sports fans out there I have dug through the trenches of the Chrome Web Store to find the sports games that are actually worth checking out.

I’m constantly on the lookout for new and fun multiplayer games so I was pleasantly surprised to stumble across Netsoccer 2, a multiplayer soccer game that you can play with other soccer (or football) enthusiasts around the world. The cool thing about Netsoccer is that you actually control an individual player, not the entire team.

Mixed Martial Arts (or MMA) is considered by many to be the fastest growing sport on the planet. There are MMA gyms springing up in every city and town around the world. Many traditional martial arts gyms are switching over to MMA, and bringing in coaches from the various disciplines to teach. As with anything that gets big, podcasts will come out of the woodwork to cover it.
