This Olympics there was a lot of talk about new technologies and how they had affected the competitions, like the special swimsuits and keeping track of timings to the thousandth of a second.
I know they're over now, but I wanted to mention something I noticed thanks to good ol' HDTV: although technology might have influenced some events, it was great to see that the track and field athletes still had their numbers pinned onto their high-tech materials with good old safety pins.
That's about the only thing we have in common with those guys when we do our 10-mile races... darn pins.
