'Tap In' to the World Cup
Two local guys have stepped up to help anyone with an Internet connection make sense of the World Cup. Curt Baker and Mike Arney from the Minneapolis-based branding firm Little created Tap In, a Web app that gives users a bite-sized preview of games and players to watch. It doesn't matter if you're a bandwagon fan or a die-hard looking to brush up on Nigeria's offense — you'll sound as though you know what you're talking about. www.tapinguide.com
