Nov. 21, 2009 - PRLog -- Toronto based SkatersNews.com has been launched today. The new website helps fans to keep up with the latest news coming from 40 skating forum sites, top skaters who post on Twitter, and official websites of skaters and skating organizations.

Said one of the SkatersNews founders Alex Konov, "There are some special search engines that show posts from multiple forum sites based on the search query. SkatersNews is different. Obviously, it is focused on Figure Skating only. Also, there is no need to run a search query. Just visit SkatersNews daily, and it will show all the latest up to the minute discussions from all the skating forums, ordered by date, most active will come on top. There is also a way to read discussions grouped by particular skater or discipline".

Besides the forum sites, SkatersNews makes its mission to monitor official sites of skaters and organizations. As soon as updates are posted on the monitored site, the link will be published on SkatersNews within hours.

Many official sites do not have RSS feeds. SkatersNews uses its own web crawling technology (similar to what search engines use), so it could monitor sites with or without using RSS feeds. This also makes SkatersNews different from those sites that rely solely on RSS feeds.

More and more athletes use Twitter to connect with their fans. All tweets from genuine top skaters are instantly available on SkatersNews.
