I’m pleased to announce that FanChatter Stadium has a new customer: University of Oklahoma Sooners Football. We’re providing in-stadium photo sharing on their brand new HD LCD screen. And, as a new feature, we’re also allowing them to collect and display photos on their website between games.
+ 
= EPIC WIN
The Sooners’ first game was on Saturday, where they rolled over UT-Chattanooga 57-2 in front of 84,715 fans. FanChatter Stadium performed admirably, and you can see the results here.
I’m proud of this rollout because we signed the contract on Thursday and delivered the goods on Saturday. Not a bad turn around!

A week and a half ago we tested FanChatter at the Metrodome during the Gopher-Bison game.
The response was really great and so we’re going to be back at this Saturday’s Gophers game against the Illini as well as at the Vikings game on Sunday. So if you’re going to either of those games, look for our promos and send in photos from your phone to get up on the big screen!
One of the cool things about working on FanChatter is getting to see behind the scenes at a major sports stadium. Here Marty shows off his phone down on the field.

Slantwise is proud to annouce the launch of FanChatter.com: the first fully mobile sports chat network. FanChatter is a micro-blogging site targeted at sports fans.
FanChatter allows sports fans to create groups and chat on the web or via their mobile phones. Fans can also use their camera phone to send in photos. If you like to talk about sports, give it a try.
On Saturday, October 20, FanChatter will be on the big screen at the University of Minnesota-NDSU football game. So if you’re there (or following along at home), send your photos to gophers@fanchatter.com (or ndsu@fanchatter.com). We’ll pick the best photos from fans to put up on the big screen!
FanChatter is a partnership between Slantwise and Marty Wetherall, producer of The Show To Be Named Later. Marty and Jon met at the second MinneBar back in April, and the site is a product of that meeting. Completing the circle, it was officially be launched at last week’s MinneDemo.
