This week sports writer David Biderman of the Wall Street Journal profiled Sportsin140.com in an article about athletes and the sports industry on Twitter. Check it out!

Good morning! My name is Brendan Wilhide and I created Sportsin140.com in March, 2009. You’ve probably found my site this morning because of the “Outside the Lines” feature on athletes on Twitter.

Here are some quick reference links:

• If you’re looking for my directory of athletes, teams, colleges and universities and sports media on Twitter, please click here or on the “Complete List” tab at the top of the page.
• If you’re looking for my interviews with some of the biggest names in the sports industry on Twitter, feel free to browse the site via the search box to the right or by clicking one of the tags in any post. You will find interviews with top league and team executives from across the country that focus on their Twitter presence and what they see as the future of the sports industry in social media.
• If you would like to contact me with comments or questions about the site, you may do so by clicking here.

Thank you again for checking out the site and I hope this will be your first of many visits to Sportsin140.com.

I will be appearing on ESPN’s “Outside the Lines” this Sunday at 9 AM on ESPN. The piece will cover athletes and the sports industry on Twitter. Please tune in!
