EN Today: Your social media menu for the Olympics

Tori Rodriguez over at Eventing Nation has compiled a fantastic list of Twitter and Facebook accounts to follow during the Games.

From Tori:

If you follow these Twitter and Facebook accounts, people will think you’re just texting the babysitter, yet they have NO idea that you’re actually furiously pressing ‘refresh’ to see if Phillip’s extended trot got a ‘7’ or an ‘8.’

Here’s who to follow on Twitter (and Facebook) during the London Olympics.  Bon Appetit!
