Olympics 2012

Throughout the Olympics, we’ll learn so much about the 205 countries who are sending more than 10,000 athletes to compete in 300 events. We encourage you to capture this information in our latest app, Tappestry, to share what you’ve learned and learn what’s been shared. An updated version of Tappestry to be released soon will feature each Olympic sport as a category. Download Tappestry for iOS now>>

Float Mobile Learning is a leader in helping individuals and organizations leverage mobile devices for learning. We developed this infographic to show how deep mobile has penetrated society during the time period between the Beijing Olympic Games in 2008 and the London Olympics in 2012. Facebook has grown nearly 10 times, and Android and apps have exploded since the Beijing Games. We also look at the top five apps to help you learn and train like the 10,000+ Olympic athletes competing in London. Finally, we analyze how mobile devices have changed over time in order to help people learn.
