There are a number of ways you can chart the Aussie performances in London, and join in the celebrations with me and other Aussie supporters.
This article lists a number of official IOC social media resources you can use to follow Olympic results and participants. Search for an athlete's name to find out if they're tweeting!
You can also follow the Australian Olympic Committee website and twitter .
Good blogs to follow are my chums at The Couch Gymnast or Gymnastics Examiner, who you can find on Facebook and Twitter under those names, outside of their websites.
Gymnastics Australia will of course be on the scene, keeping us in the know.
And me?
Well, I'll be putting up as much content here as I can as competition draws nearer and then gets underway, but your best bet is my Twitter account. The benefit of Twitter is that it can be speedily updated from my phone or computer. It's also easier for any of you other users to contribute to (I am happy to retweet articles or photos you find of our gym delegates).
All our team have officially touched down in London (check out Lauren being fitted out with the team kit), so start warming up those cheering muscles!

Gee, that big red fire engine phrase is annoying.
Awesome, you don't have to keep coming here then!
:)
Lol Mez!
Happy to come here. Sometimes there's interesting material. Just that the Big Red Fire Engine thing is inane. But obviously you enjoy it. Cheers
I'm sorry that you find it inane. It's had some great participation in the past, and is something a little different from just "Go Aussies".
betting Thomas Pichler will be updating his blog!!!!
Uhm, why is Larrissa wearing a boot? Is she injured? Have I missed something? There is a photo of the girls in London and they all look great...except for Miller in a boot.
Rissa rolled her ankle recently, the boot's for prolonged periods of walking. "Not as serious as it actually looks" I am told by a team rep.
Nice article! Can't say i'm in love with the blazer look - this must be for the opening ceremony I assume. I guess we always have that and a tracksuit for the actual competition? Lauren must be pretty nervous!! 'im glad she pins her fringe back in competitions - Ive seen her with that fringe a couple of times in photos.
An interesting link- average scores of 2012 with Olympic contenders

Ashleigh is 14th AA, Emily 20th. For EF Lauren is 3rd and Ashleigh 9th on beam, and Lauren is 7th on floor.
Also team predictions:

Best case scenario is 5th, worst case scenario is 8th.
Good to see the Aussies training in green and gold leos. Hopefully it's a sign of things to come.....
