Backing for athlete blogging

Support is growing within the Olympic movement to allow athletes to write internet diaries or blogs. The issue will be discussed at the 119th IOC Session in Guatemala this week, if it gets the go ahead athletes will be blogging in Beijing.

A committee set up by the IOC Press Commission Chairman, Kevan Gosper, has recommended blogging be permitted.
