The 2012 Olympic Games are set to kick off in less than 2 hours, so we wanted to make sure you had some apps and links to ensure you don’t miss a single lap, dive, punch, or round-off. You’ll find a list of the top apps and a few websites to keep you on track and in the game. Feel free to check them out, or if you have any other suggestions, throw them up in the comments. Now let the games begin!

Samsung is a proud sponsor of the 2012 Olympic games, so you know what that means, don’t you? Commercials! Naturally, you can expect the majority of Samsung’s Olympic commercial spots to feature their new flagship Samsung Galaxy S III device, and why wouldn’t they? It’s an amazing phone, and one that coincidentally was designed for humans <—insert smiley face.

[Update: The event is over, stay tuned for more coverage on the Samsung Galaxy S III]

Get ready folks! Refresh for updates!

After a barrage of rumors and fake images, we’re finally going to get some real facts about the Galaxy S III (that is if that’s the “Next Galaxy”). Samsung has begun sending out press invites to a “Samsung Unpacked” event in London on May 3rd where they will be unveiling the “Next Galaxy.” It’s safe to assume this will be the Samsung Galaxy S III, which means we’re less than a month away from finally seeing this unicorn in the wild.

Ahead of the Olympics being held in London this summer, the Google Maps team has released an update for its Android app and mobile web page today that will help commuters in the London area. Today, Google Maps has gained service alerts for London’s Underground train system. Users will be provided with real time information on closures and other issues on the track.
